• 28 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. That is also my other name. It is also good because it is coming to your attention now. I would like to support this Motion. We are urging our Hon. Members not to bring propaganda into the House. What we mean by this reduction of publication period of a Bill is that the Leader of the Majority Party, on behalf of Jubilee, is asking us to allow those two Bills to go to the public within one day. That is a very good thing that needs to be supported. Let the nation and the people ... view
• 28 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Three, my Hon. Colleagues are saying that, maybe, there is an insinuation that the Jubilee side is changing rules mid-game. I want to tell you that the referee of this game which will be on 26th October has changed. The Supreme Court spoke and said that the last game was played wrongly. This is what you are supposed to have done. Are we going to be just naive and not live to the fact that the Supreme Court is now the referee in the game? We will not lie without making those changes that we were requested to make. We ... view
• 28 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: It is a fact, Hon. Deputy Speaker. We were not there. view
• 28 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: The Leader of the Majority Party was not sitting where Chief Justice Maraga is sitting. If he were there, he was there as Hon. Duale, but not as the Leader of the Majority Party. Let us tell our nation that we want to save it. We are appealing to our colleagues. We are supporting these 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
• 28 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Bills to go to the public from today. They have an opportunity to tell the public to have the Bill from this afternoon, read it and when the ad hoc committee will be formed, the public will have an informed decision. There is no sinister motive. I am supporting the Procedural Motion. I am urging our colleagues from the other side to support it as well. view

• 12 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I am a member of the Committee and I can attest to the fact that we had lengthy deliberation on this matter. The principal reasons we agree with this amendment are as follows: First, our oversight role as Parliament is indicated under Article 95 of the Constitution. It gives the Committee the mandate to oversee the ministry. So, if you do not have Parliament you are actually removing the Committee from playing its oversight role. Therefore, we are bringing that role in. Secondly, according to the Constitution, if you let the KDF intervene with ... view
• 12 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Yes, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I have interest and support that amendment. Initially, if you looked at the principal amendment, it was not clear. If you say: “The CS may where appropriate and in writing delegate any power or assign any duty conferred on him or her under this Act---” The question that begs is, to whom? This is because you cannot delegate power in a vacuum. So that you do not create that vacuum whether you delegate to generals or whoever, we are now saying: “To an employee of the Ministry”. I think that now brings clarity, It also ... view
• 12 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 12 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I think you should have guided the House earlier on by saying that if an amendment from a Member was defeated, it means this was naturally defeated. If we defeated the other one which this one is operationalising, what exactly shall we be doing as a House? This is a very important amendment. I am a Member of the Departmental Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations. Research and giving opportunities to the defence personnel to go further in manufacturing equipment is important. Hon. Kiragu knows that if there is something important like this, he should present ... view
