Temporary Deputy Speaker, indeed, the history of Abahengle people, the Isukha people, the Luhya people, and the history of Kenyans can never be complete without the name of Michael Kijana Wamalwa. It is for this reason that we need to emphasize the importance of this gentleman, who will always remain as an inspiration to an institution like a university. He was an intellectual in his own rights, and you will recall that his last mission abroad was to bring the whole world together; he was at an international meeting of the UN in Geneva. I support, on behalf of ... view

• 19 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. When contributing to this Motion, I had highlighted the importance of mechanisms put in place to actualize implementation of revenue allocated to the counties.

The issue of wastage is crucial and it is important, as we support this Bill, to underline the importance ... view
