• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: is the most common mode of transport. I can tell you that what happens on the pikipiki is not what I would want to describe here. Sometimes families get destroyed because of the use of the piki piki. The moral fabric and the relationship that happens between the passenger and the piki piki rider can never be quite known in a five kilometres journey. How the passenger will end in the police or how the rider will end up reporting to the police because he was being tickled everywhere by the lady passenger thus offending him cannot be imagined because ... view
• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: So, which way do we go? We need to understand the circumstances and we need to prepare our people. I would like to support the idea of creating a special police unit. If we can create a special police unit for traffic offences, then, we also need to create a special police unit that will deal with sexual offences because this is the area where humanity is created and where humanity needs to be enriched. If that is how important this sector is, then we need to have a special police unit specially trained where we have incorporation of properly ... view
• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: I would like to support the idea of adopting traditional coping mechanisms to deal with the changing social fabric, the changing physical environment and changing interactions. Look at the new greeting phenomenon. For a long time, we had greeting mechanisms where only hands were shaken. But, nowadays, if you do not hug your friend, you have not shown a lot of love and that hugging could create an interaction that could be disturbing. How do you get into a hug without coming closer and your heads coming in touch and interacting with a chest environment of your colleague? This creates ... view
• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: Therefore, I support these amendments, but I would like us to revisit many of them by my sister Florence, so that we allow our cultural creativity, cultural phenomenon and cultural mechanisms. view
• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: I support the Bill. Thank you. view
• 1 Dec 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I support the Motion. However, to underline the importance of domestication, ratification is one thing but domestication is another thing. It is important that we have laws and the necessary financial support for the institutions and the communities that will sustain our climate situation. I come from a constituency where two-thirds of the land is covered by a tropical rain forest; namely, Kakamega Forest. We have challenges of rain patterns because of deforestation. This is an area where the Government needs to take seriously. After the ratification of this treaty, the Government should provide ... view
• 29 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. My concern is slow development and encroachment on land which has brought about marginalisation. We have many people who have encroached on public land which should be forest lands and other public utilities. This Bill is going to regulate that, but above all, there is the issue of investment. We are losing potential investors in Kenya. They would rather go to other countries because acquisition of land here is terrible. All the corrupt dealings that you hear about are recipe to not only economic derailment, but also civil strife. ... view
• 25 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I like the compromises that are coming through the mediation process. This way, we will be moving very fast. Earlier, as you noticed, we had several standoffs. The compromise on the mode of appointments is something that we need to encourage. This is especially in the spirit of the Constitution that there should be equity and inclusivity. So, I support the mediated version between the Senate and the National Assembly. 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 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: I support. view
• 25 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to speak on the National Government Constituencies Fund (NG-CDF) (Amendment) Bill. You realise that the NG-CDF is a mitigating facility that rises to the occasion to close gaps that have not been covered in the mainstream facilitation of development in the country. Rather than have a continuance talk about the challenges we face in the constituencies, the NG- CDF will address them. The challenge that we have at the moment is that not all functions have been devolved. We still have functions that are being run by the national ... view
