• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am rising on a point of information. Our colleague, Hon. Wamalwa, is suggesting that the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock should have written to every interested party. Those are not the rules for public participation. In her report, she has stated that they advertised. If the thousands of the world found it important enough, it is for them to have submitted memoranda to the specific chair. It was advertised and the people in that specific industry and the professionals in that industry, whether they were land valuers or any other The ... view

• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. From the outset, I support this Motion. I want to thank Hon. Mbadi, the Leader of the Minority Party, for bringing this issue because it has not been addressed. He has spoken professionally with a lot of passion. This is an idea which the nation needs to address. Why should we have a Government if it does not protect its own citizens? How can pirates enter our country, arrest our fishermen, women and our security agencies and the Government does not address this? I call upon the Commander-in-Chief of all our Armed Forces to ... view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: It is pathetic to hear a statement that Migingo belongs to Kenya, but the water belongs to Uganda. This statement is irrational, retrogressive, unpalatable and ignominious. As a country, did we respond to that statement by a Head of State from another nation? He took this country for granted.

Opiyo invoking ethnic names and this did not augur well because this issue affects all Kenyans. Even if we do not border the lake region, we ... view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support what I refer to as a landmark amendment. Indeed, it is crucial that if we want to move from Third World to First World, we will require huge infrastructural development. For infrastructural developments, we are going to need land acquisition. It is such a critical tool for development of nations that are moving to the next level. In the US, land acquisition is referred to as eminent domain which means that the state is the supreme landlord. Compulsory acquisition of land is facilitated and is done to enforce and to ... view

• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Hon. Junet is out of order by bringing ethnicity into the House. Even us, as Maasai, have suffered from the aggression of Tanzanians especially through Magufuli killing our cows. So, let him not bring ethnicity into the House. We want to speak as a nation. We have the handshake and are united. Ethnic connotations divide the country. He is out of order. view
