• 25 Sep 2024 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. First of all, let me say that Hon. Maungu’s question…. view
• 25 Sep 2024 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Let me start with Hon. Maungu’s question. I will follow up with the payment for the members of Luanda Villa Soccer Club (SC) team who were the winners of the Division One League. I will follow up on the same to make sure that they are paid. We will also make sure that a few other sportsmen and women whose money has not been disbursed is done expeditiously. Hon. Mutuse, Ngaga Training Centre is not among the ones that have been advertised. As we have discussed with you, we will make it a priority in the ... view
• 25 Sep 2024 in National Assembly: academies, we will consider the marginalised areas because that is affordable. We can start from there as we move towards 15,000 sports facilities. Hon. Joseph Namuar, I am inspired by your suggestion. I was even asked during vetting about the role of sports in promoting peace. I think we should transition what we started together as well-wishers and Community Social Responsibility (CSR) to the people of North Rift. We can think through it as a Government, that is, how we can structure it to remain consistent in terms of dealing with the menace of banditry and other peace-related issues in ... view
• 25 Sep 2024 in National Assembly: I received your letter. Thank you very much. We will consider it. When it comes to Hon. Gitonga Mukunji's question, yes, I am informed that before the Embu Stadium was constructed, Njukiri Stadium was supposed to be the first one. So, we will see in the queue how else we can come back to Embu after considering a few of your colleagues here who are in serious problems. At least, you have one stadium. Because of Madaraka Day, it moved to Embu, but initially Njukiri Stadium was supposed to be the priority in that place. You have asked the question ... view
• 25 Sep 2024 in National Assembly: sure that you have a proper facility. However, what we want to do in Shanzu is of international standard, that is, the equivalent of Nyayo stadium or somewhere between Nyayo and Kasarani stadiums or between Nyayo Stadium and Talanta. That is because the low altitude competitions are held in places like the Coast region. We want one stadium to be done there of a magnitude that can help us in hosting competitions because you cannot host them in very high altitude areas. Hon. Julius Rutto, I agree that we need to safeguard the roadsides for running by our athletes. When ... view
• 25 Sep 2024 in National Assembly: Last but not least, is the concern by Hon. Liza Chelule. She asked about Olenguruone Stadium. That stadium is a county facility and we believe that, if you work together with the County Government of Nakuru, you should be able to deliver a good facility for Olenguruone. Also, as we work towards delivery of the Sports Academy for Kuresoi South, that may be an area to be considered for construction. We also have some other projects that we are working with development partners and we will see whether we can identify that one area. We know that is the home ... view
• 25 Sep 2024 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, on Hon. Wanyonyi’s question, the Kitale Stadium is a county facility and is being done by the county. Until such a time when we have a partnership, if need be, we will see what to do. At the moment, it is being done and managed by the County Government of Trans Nzoia. Secondly, is the issue of preparations for the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) which he rightly said is not just about infrastructure. Today, I have just mentioned about infrastructure. But I will be chairing an inter-governmental meeting with other Cabinet Secretaries to discuss the overall preparations ... view
• 25 Sep 2024 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I truly recognise your passion for football and organisation of our teams. Since I came for vetting and when I meet you privately, you always insist that… The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 25 Sep 2024 in National Assembly: Yes, even when we watch Arsenal suffer together. I believe we need to sort out that area. Thank you for your support and that of Hon. Members. This is not an easy area. It has had problems for a long time. We will do everything possible in the upcoming elections to ensure that we open up the space and democracy prevails. It is so that we can get the best people to manage our football. On the question about our athletes, allow me to think about it further. That is because we will be asked why we are charging a ... view
