• 4 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: in. The culprit is usually the NCPB which wants to buy the produce at a throw away price. So, farmers incur losses all the time. As middlemen, they come back with the produce to sell to the poor Kenyans during famine. This becomes a continuous frustration to the innocent Kenyans. It is very important that we support this Motion and pass it with speed. We should insist that the established board be given responsibilities that will enable it to supervise the distribution of fertilizers and also provide the necessary extension support services to the farmers. Farmers can make good use ... view
• 4 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to add my voice to those who have spoken on this Motion. I stand to support the Motion. I do not really see how any Kenyan can oppose a Motion like this, which speaks to the heart of all Kenyans. I come from Shinyalu Constituency where every inch of the soil is good for farming and all the citizens there, like all the other parts of Kenya, are anxious to work on their land and to produce food and other crops that will enhance their welfare. So, the Government ... view
• 21 May 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, thank you for giving me this opportunity. I am just getting worried that we are losing confidence in these county governments and yet they are just starting. I rise to support this Motion that we should give opportunity to the county governments to run these parastatals. They are parastatals; they are not view
• 16 May 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I have the microphone and thank you very much for the giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Motion. The work through committees gives us an opportunity to leverage on the talent that the hon. Members have. Indeed, these hon. Members have different talents and skills which we should use in the committees. I think that is the best time for us to put politics aside and focus on the work that we are supposed to do for Kenyans. Hon. Deputy Speaker, we made an amendment recently so that we can give everyone an opportunity to ... view
• 8 May 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I stand to support this Bill and specially underline the importance that the President outlined in his Speech with relation to education and, especially, focusing on retention of children in schools in rural Kenya. It is important that we see the need for teachers in schools. This Bill does not quite indicate that. It looks like we are going to remain in the same situation where schools are suffocating because of lack of teachers. It is very important that this Bill view

• 2 May 2013 in National Assembly: The issue of insecurity cannot be trivialized. We are living in a country where we are aspiring to achieve greater levels in our economic development. We cannot achieve economic development if we do not take care of our security. I would like to recite a situation in Shinyalu Constituency, specifically in Ilesi Ward, where a young entrepreneur, Allan Kisi Shisundi, was working very hard and had put up about two or three shops. Two weeks ago, he was waylaid at the doorway of one of his shops by thugs who captured him and forced him to drink poison. He has ... view
• 2 May 2013 in National Assembly: The happenings in Bungoma have left very many people out of any development activity. These are people who have businesses that will enable this Government to attain the two digit economic growth. It is a pity that the security officers and I would like to be very specific here, and even Administration Police (AP), who are charged with the responsibility of providing security to the citizens and taxpayers--- When they go out they are interested in making money. They conduct illegal arrests of old women, youth, especially boda boda operators and demand bribes from them. We are dealing with a ... view
• 2 May 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the citizens of this country entrust their security with the Government. So, the Government should be obligated to provide enough facilitation to the Inspector-General. I have read about the Inspector-General pleading for money. The Government needs to be responsive to this. The Inspector- General cannot achieve if he is not provided with resources. He should be provided with enough resources, so that he can take care of the welfare of his staff. If he does not have enough resources, he will not have the equipment. When some police officers go out, you see them running ... view
