• 19 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. When we were drafting the Constitution and thereafter the very elaborate process of negotiation in order to give Kenya a new dispensation, little was it anticipated that we will have some of the bottlenecks or complications in terms of the independence of the institutions and some of the basic governance matters that are afflicting communities in Kenya to the extent that people are asking questions. Sometimes, because of these small confusions, you hear isolated complaints like: “This Constitution that we made is too permissive and too liberal”, to the extent that individuals ... view
• 19 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: parliament at that level of governance. Therefore, giving immunity to members of the county assemblies (MCAs) and the National Parliament, to collectively execute the mandate on public hearings, the legislations, oversight and representation, is a hallmark of progressive review of the national law - to enable peoples’ representative to play their legitimate role without deviations and trivialisations that are happening. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, as I conclude, it is important to say that, as Members of the National Parliament and the county parliaments, we should be held to account. I am very happy that our great Chief Justice, who may ... view
• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. The Constitution of the country is very clear. While we encourage it very strongly because it is very evident that many institutions--- Now you see children, students and young people have a lot of trust in the National Assembly to resolve matters in a judicious manner. Because the Constitution is very clear about the right of choice, association, speech and so on, perhaps as the two Committees, as directed by you, Hon.

• 4 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for the opportunity to contribute for one minute and a half. Streamlining matters of business includes putting in place firm legislative mechanisms that enable institutionalisation of a sector. view
• 4 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: We have experienced, in this country, crimes committed in public investments because of lack of tight mechanisms that allow corporations to fold up, be rehabilitated or transited to private ownership. Because of lack of these provisions, we have had very many State corporations mismanaged, deliberately bankrupted and eventually seized through quick processes that are actually originated to misappropriate public utilities. view
• 4 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Therefore, putting in place a system that allows the Judiciary - the courts of law - and also enables owners of companies, including the public sector investments, to be assured, so that there can be transitions that will hormanise businesses that fall because of climate that may be adversarial; for instance, circumstances of production or a challenge in the financial sector, or a collapse of financiers like the banking sector, enables us to create stability. Recently, in the previous Parliament, we were talking about over the counter bidding for private enterprises to enable transitions of family investments, and enable diversifications, ... view
• 4 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: These are the kinds of concepts that will enable us to stabilise our economy: giving stimulants to the private sector and public sector investments in enterprises that make profit. view

• 9 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. We have said on the Floor of this House that the delivery and confidence levels of the EACC, be it the commissioners or the secretariat have been at the lowest. It is a catalogue of disappointment unless we are saying we want to group ourselves in order to save some conclaves in our villages in order to fight national battles; if we want to be very sincere, let us have a clean start. If those who hold those positions are qualified, they will have an opportunity to reapply; let us not have drama. view
