• 18 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, it is my considered humble submission and opinion that we are given even a minimum of three or four days to come up with our amendments as a House and we debate them even in the special sitting he wants to call for. This is not a Bill we can take for a joke. This is such a serious Bill that is going to affect the lives of Kenyans. So, I request the House to support that let us take our time and I request Members to support me that we defer this Bill. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
• 10 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise under Standing Order 210 on Committee on Delegated Legislation. The Standing orders are very clear. Yesterday, I saw the Chairman of the Independent Elections and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) talking about the issue of campaign financing. This matter is now before the Committee on Delegated Legislation. Standing Order 210 (3) (a) states: “(a) in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution, the Act pursuant to which it is made or other relevant written law; (i) appears to make some unusual or unexpected use of the powers conferred by the Constitution or the Act pursuant to ... view
• 10 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: (j) appears to have had an unjustifiable delay in its publication or laying before Parliament;… Hon. Speaker, the IEBC has been in existence for many years. The Campaign Finance Act is very clear that the regulations on campaign financing should be brought to Parliament 12 months before the general elections. They say delay is the enemy of progress. The IEBC was aware that the next General Elections are going to be held on 9th August, 2022. The IEBC knew that campaigns for the next General Elections will require financing. It knows that they are required by law to present draft ... view
• 10 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: back and listen to the IEBC giving views outside there saying that they have taken the Campaign Finance Bill to the House. Why should we finance? After all, those finances should be regulated. They should be done the way the Campaign Financing Act has stipulated. So, with those few remarks, I need your guidance whether those regulations are before the House in a proper manner. I thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
• 10 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I do not know whether the Member understands what we are discussing here today. We are discussing the Regulations presented to the House by the IEBC. We are not discussing how to raise funds or Safaricom and such kind of things. The Standing Order is very clear on relevance. This is a House of dignity. We cannot reduce it to this level that this Hon. Member is trying to. We know what the Regulations are asking us to do. The Regulations have procedures and processes to follow. That is what we are discussing, Hon. Sankok. We are not ... view

• 10 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, with due respect to the former Leader of the Majority Party, it was not my intention to interrupt him, but he came late. When you get into a debate mid-way, you may lose some issues. He has said in this House on record that the 12 months is only binding to the IEBC to gazette the Regulations. No. They did, but in presentation to Parliament, the 12 months bind. We should make it to Kenyans because we are legislating on their behalf. The Regulations to be gazetted by the IEBC 12 months to the elections ... view
• 16 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, the Chairlady for the Departmental Committee on Education and Research had issues with the Budget and Appropriations Committee. There were some figures she was reconciling. So, I seek your indulgence. I am sure she was caught up in that matter. Maybe the Vice Chairperson is loitering in town. I am just speaking for the Chair. view

• 16 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I took the responsibility because the Chair is from the Minority and I want to tell her what has transpired in the House. I have just heard a Member of the Committee say that he is seasoned. I do not know which season he is talking about because this is his first season in Parliament. Is he talking about being the treasurer of the Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) or a seasoned KUPPET Member, which season is he talking about? One season only! view
