• 11 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this Bill. Having listened to the last speaker, Hon. Duale, I want to say that this is an important Bill for this country. As he has rightfully put it, we have a culture and tendency of bringing Bills that are of high importance such as this one at the last minute. When will that culture end? There are issues that this Bill ought to have addressed early enough when we decided to change the Constitution. For instance, you are asked to collect one million signatures and take to ... view

• 11 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Bill. The truth must be said. This will not be the first or the last referendum. We are going to have other referenda. Having said that, I happen to be one of the promoters of the BBI Bill. We went out there and collected one million signatures and took them to the IEBC with the draft BBI Bill. The signatures were verified and the Bill was sent to the county assemblies. If 24 counties will pass the Bill, the Bill is expected to come to Parliament. After all that, somebody wakes up from his slumber and tells me that he ... view

It is dishonest to say that you want to have a multiple choice question on a Bill promoted by different people. Having said that, I want to urge Members that they should not look at this Bill with partisan lenses. That, we are going to have a referendum on a Bill because it is being propagated by so and so. Tomorrow, you may have your own Bill, desirous to ... view

• 11 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: signatures or facing 24 counties and Parliament. If you have those fears, then you have nothing to tell Kenyans. Stay put. Wait for the referendum.

A referendum is just like an election. You will go to the voting booth and find my Bill and decide whether it is good for you or not and vote yes or no. I was shocked when I ... view
