• 19 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Suna East, ODM): Hon. Deputy Speaker, the statement the Deputy President issued yesterday was that food security is stable and food prices are stable. Is this real? People in Turkana cannot afford to buy that food even if the prices are stable. They do not have money to buy it. Somebody must have misled the Deputy President or it is out of ignorance to claim that food prices in Kenya are stable as though people of Turkana have money to buy that food. It just tells us that he is out of touch. He does not know what is happening ... view
• 19 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: When you hear that there is Kshs21 billion, you will not remember Turkana. All your mind and energy will be focussed on the dams. It is high time the Government came back to its senses. I know that choices have consequences. We told people not to elect Jubilee because I knew that it was a scam. But now, with points, we are proving that Jubilee is full of scams, including Kamwerer and Arror dams. A dam is allocated Kshs21 billion in one county so that it can give water to 100,000 people. My constituency has a population of 150,000 and ... view
• 14 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, first, I want to thank you for guiding the House in accordance with the Constitution. As a Member of the Committee, I have a suggestion. Because the Report before us is like a body which has lost its kidneys, eyes and ears, I request that the Committee withdraws it and brings back another Report that conforms with your ruling and guidance. We can even re-look at the recommendations, so that it is brought back with those that are in conformity with the Constitution. If the Committee cannot recommend vacation of office of Commissioners and staff members, it may ... view
• 14 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The Chairperson, Budget and Appropriations Committee is my friend, but he cannot get away with this one. The BPS is a policy statement that we discuss to inform the Treasury on how to go about the estimates. view
• 14 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: What is before us is a Bill just like any other Bill. It is only that its name is “Division of Revenue Bill”. So, we need the Committee’s Report that has been subjected to public participation. Anything short of that, there is no Division of Revenue Bill that will be passed in this House. This is a House of procedure and rules. It is clear in our Standing Orders that every The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 14 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Bill at the Second Reading must be accompanied by a Report of the Committee. The Chairperson, Budget and Appropriations Committee sometimes behaves like he is part of Treasury. He thinks that he is the Deputy Minister for Finance. view
• 14 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Let him do his parliamentary work. I am told he has a small office in Treasury nowadays. You must give us a Report of the Committee. I am told that when the Cabinet Secretary is writing statements at the Directorate of Criminal Investigation, you are the one holding brief. I am not sure, you can confirm. He must give this House a Committee Report so that it can inform us what the public has said about this. Public participation is a constitutional requirement in all Bills now. Therefore, Hon. Chair you have now failed in your duties. Initially, I thought ... view

• 14 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I wish to oppose these amendments. This is a classic case of a Bill that will automatically go to mediation. It looks like the Senators, who believe that they are the upper House of Parliament, have not looked into these issues properly. They have contravened the Constitution over and over again and, in this one, they have done so in a manner that looks like they have not even consulted their legal experts. view
• 14 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: The Fourth Schedule is very clear. It divides the functions between the county governments and the national Government. Article 69 is very clear that the Senate deals with matters concerning county governments. When you want to take up functions of the national Government yet your role is to oversee county government functions, what business is that? view
