• 8 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. My good friend, Hon. Tonui, is misleading this House. I am a senior member of Njuri Ncheke . I am a patron in Imenti South, sub-county of view
• 8 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: . There was no news that Njuri Ncheke said Prof. Kaimenyi must be impeached. For the information of this House, all Njuri Ncheke elders have said that they support the Cabinet Secretary. He is our child and we have no problem with him whatsoever. So, I wish that Hon. Tonui can apologize to Njuri Ncheke elders and then withdraw before he proceeds. Otherwise, we will curse him as Njuri Ncheke elders. view
• 24 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this chance to contribute. From the outset, I want to appreciate the efforts made by Hon. Sakaja by introducing this Bill to this House. I do not want to overemphasise that one of the problems that we are undergoing, as a country, is youth unemployment. That is the reason why Hon. Kanini Kega has brought the Bill touching on radicalisation of the youth.We have very learned youth but then there are no opportunities for employment. So, this authority will sort out all these problems that are happening. We have come up with ... view
• 24 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: is the way we should go. Because we are the people who are giving budgets to the ministries, let us have Kshs100 billion allocated to NYS and then this programme be rolled out throughout the country. I know that only 63 constituencies will benefit from Phase 1of this programme, but then if this programme is rolled out throughout the country, we can approve a budget of even Kshs100billion to the NYS as long as the youth get direct employment across the country. I am happy because Jubilee is not selective in NYS programmes. I can see that the Government started ... view
• 17 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Motion as moved by our colleague Hon. Injendi. I want to support this Motion. I would like to indicate that according to Marriage Act, 2014, all marriages must be registered. They include customary marriages, civil marriages, Christian marriages, Islamic marriages and Hindu marriages. The Act does not favour customary marriage. Before that marriage is given a certificate, the people who go through the route of customary marriage must take six months to complete the rituals and to convince the marriage officer or the registrar that ... view
• 17 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: hon. member for Makueni has indicated, those regulations should now be done by the Attorney- General (AG), so that we can have a good law in place. We also need to note that the Act also recognizes foreign marriages. Such marriages can be conducted at our embassies and consulates abroad. The Registrar of Marriages can appoint officers even in those embassies who can issue marriage certificates without any hindrances. Many Members have also talked about the fees charged for marriage certificates. For sure, getting a wife should not be just a walk in the park. The fee, which is almost ... view
• 26 May 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I do not want to overemphasise the sentiments of my colleagues but the leadership of both Houses of Parliament should craft a way of ensuring that at some point relevant Committees from both Houses meet so that they can iron out some of the little issues that keep coming up. During the law making process, we waste a considerable amount of time, trying to take Bills to both Houses. If the leadership from both Houses can sit down, they can come up with a mechanism for relevant Committees from both ... view
• 26 May 2015 in National Assembly: With those remarks, I beg to support. view
• 30 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I want to congratulate Hon. Ichung’wah because these three crops; sorghum, millet and cassava, are generally grown in Agro Ecological Zone III. Most parts in this country have this type of climatic condition. So, people in these areas will benefit largely because of this. view
