• 8 Jun 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, brother Wamalwa, for the donation of a minute. Speaking as a teacher, I can confidently say that evaluation is the greatest function in the entire education process. It is important for it to be analysed and to be spread out so that we can have a clear normal curve distribution. In this case, we can always be able to pick the best practices for us to share. Indeed, life is a shared opportunity. I have an issue with this categorisation of institutions. As we categorise, there should be a moment when we rank everyone. You will ... view
• 7 Jun 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the appointment of those officials will be tricky. Whereas I agree with the Chairlady, it would be useful to be specific that it should be from one of the counties benefiting from the services of that Committee. I want to remove the word “respective” but retain the concept of having them--- view

• 5 May 2016 in National Assembly: I want to emphasize - and indeed the Hon. Member for Mukurweini will support this because he has been in the water sector for a long time. He is one of the people who introduced water reforms. They created some of the institutions. During his term, a lot of good work was undertaken in the management of water supply.

We need to ask the ministry responsible for water to strengthen the institutions that have been established because we ... view
• 5 May 2016 in National Assembly: There is also the aspect of giving very many functions to county governments. Indeed, county governments are overwhelmed. Let us not be anxious to give all functions to county governments or even allow them to have them when they ask for them. The reasons for which they ask for these functions is not always above board and sincere. They need to be helped so that they can build capacity and have the right focus in terms of policy and management of these resources. view
