Again, in pursuant of improvement in the financial sector, it is very important that the streamlining that is happening to align it with the Constitution, we ensure that we also align with the vision for East African Community and the treaties that we have signed and more importantly, the East African Treaty and Protocol. We should put mechanisms in place for the larger benefit of the East African Community. view
• 9 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: We have witnessed the friendship in business and the urge for the people of East Africa to do things in one way. Already at the international level, we have the Economic Partnership Agreement which is the framework for business and trade with the European Union (EU). Kenya has resisted the fast-tracking as already adopted by this House through a Motion by Hon. Joyce Laboso to engage with outside market particularly the EU market without consolidating the East African Community. Therefore, within ourselves, the instrument that will ensure that we manage our resources better, safeguard and cushion our people’s interest as ... view
• 9 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: We have seen very many insurance companies go under because of mismanagement. We have also seen the limitation of the growth of insurance companies because of the previous legislation or regulations.

• 9 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: The supervision of insurance companies has been wanting in the past. However, these amendments seek to empower the Insurance Regulatory Authority more so that issues of ethics and governance are strengthened. Again, when these things are being done by this House, it is also good to encourage our citizenry including institutions, particularly schools that insurance is normal like it was perceived before a preserve of the income that we get. That is a basic necessity. We have seen schools burning down. The fire and burglary insurance scheme is one that is not very expensive. If you go to senior schools, ... view

• 5 Sep 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir. I rise to second this Motion which comes at a very momentous time when we are all required, irrespective of our positioning in politics and despite the political divide that exists in this country as a result of 2013 elections to capture a responsibility that will put us an indelible mark; as a House that debates an agenda, not for them, and not even for those that we may assume have supremacy on any side of the political divide. view
• 5 Sep 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, this is a necessary step for us to take as Africans and Kenyans; the legal details about the inefficiencies of ICC; the details about the isolation of Africa by the ICC; the facts and truths about those countries that insist daily that Kenya must comply with ICC, but are very loudly stating that their own citizen are exempt from ICC jurisdiction. view
• 5 Sep 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, we as the 11th Parliament must be seized of the fact of the situation of 2008. One evening the House assembled here, during the 10th Parliament, and agreed to unanimously resolve the problem that was national. Across the political spectrum people were embraced with the national crisis and that brought about reconciliation, resolution on disputes and despite what we may say, irrespective of our historical analysis, the fact remains we brought the country together. view
