• 8 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, there is a point of order I want to raise. Some Members have raised the issue of youth and women - that those parties will help women and youth. Even the strong parties have youth and women in them. view
• 8 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: This country requires a more homogeneous, strong and viable political parties. We do not need to fragment this country into small parties and small fiefdoms. The best way to go is to merge small political parties to form one strong party. That is the way the world is going. That is even the way the private sector is going. If we come here to change the law so that we can access funds even if we have five Members of Parliament in the House which has 349 Members, and then you say the threshold of accessing the Fund is five ... view
• 8 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: For that reason, I oppose. Let us think of merging parties so that we can have strong parties that can compete on ideas, values and principles. If we form parties of villages where every village wants to have a party in this country, then we are going to have a country where everybody is going to have a party. Thank you so much. view
• 8 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I stand guided. I was just building my case to the point of order. So, is it in order for the hon. colleague who contributed to say that my party, the strongest party in sub-Saharan Africa, does not have the youth and women components, when I have women and youth leagues in my party? view
• 8 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I stand to second this amendment. The import of this amendment is to put the issue of remuneration of police officers as part of the Motion. I totally agree with him because issues of police have been a big issue in this country for many years. One of the issues that the new Constitution that was promulgated in 2010 was to address was police service. Kenyans have been having problems with police service. There are reforms that were envisaged in that Constitution, by the creation of a new office in the name of Inspector-General ... view
• 8 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: In addition, a commission was created under Chapter 15 and called the National Police Service Commission, which was supposed to cater for the police in terms of their welfare, remuneration, promotions and other human resource requirements. The police have refused to reform in this country. If you read newspapers, even though I do not use them as evidence, in the last two days, a lot of rot has been reported in the police service. The reforms that were intended to be achieved through the constitutional provisions that were made have not been achieved five years since the new Constitution was ... view
• 8 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: If you look at it critically, the police, at the moment, are even suffering from command issues. There are two services that have been put under the Inspector-General - the Kenya Police Service and the Administration Police Service. Both of them are taking command from different people. If you go to the counties, you will find two separate services that are operating separately and independently. The Kenya Police Service will take orders from the police line of orders and the Administration Police will take orders from their bosses. There is a big problem in this country. Unless that is addressed, ... view
• 8 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: Secondly, I want to talk about the welfare of the police. Housing for police officers has been talked about for the last 50 years. We do not need to say it again because it has been said many times that police officers of this country are living in poor conditions. They even share rooms and houses with married couples. Those rooms are shared and are partitioned with curtains. Now, I am coming to believe that the issue is not money. If you look at the Budget that was passed the other day in this House, you will realize that the ... view
• 8 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: Hon.Temporary Deputy Speaker, insecurity is a major problem in our country. One of the biggest issues that this country is facing is insecurity, other than corruption. The people who are supposed to provide security are the police. Once you do not take the police service seriously and the reforms that were supposed to be implemented are not implemented, then this country will turn into anarchy. That is why the President is giving orders to Members of Parliament from the Mt. Kenya region to go and handle the issue of illicit brews. It looks like he has lost faith in the ... view
• 8 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: The police service has been talked about in this country since Independence and it has never changed. It is becoming worse day-by-day. I do not think that this country can continue at this rate with the kind of police service that is in existence. We may not blame the officers who are working. For you to retain someone the way the Motion is proposing - that a police officer must stay in service for 10 years - as an employer, you must create a conducive environment. You employ 10,000 police officers this year and after the nine months training at ... view
