• 30 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: because they are scared of being attacked in their shambas. So this is a serious issue. We, as the Kisii community, are very concerned with this issue. Last time, the cows that were stolen were never returned. Another issue here is that when the cows cross the border and go to the other side, even the Provincial Administration or the police cannot pursue the animals yet they can 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
• 30 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: see them on the other side. Are we two countries? If you can see your cows on the other side yet you cannot cross until you report so that the other people can take action--- By the time you do that, the cows have been turned into meat. So we have a big concern. There is a disconnection in the way the Government is working, especially the Provincial Administration. We are not working as one unit. We are not going anywhere. We are one country. Hon. Speaker, if in--- view
• 30 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: I stand guided, Hon. Speaker. We urge Members of the committee concerned to take immediate action so that peace is restored at the place and people become productive as they have always been. Thank you. view
• 1 Sep 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me a chance to contribute. I support this Report the way it is because the two leaders - that is the President of the Republic of Kenya and the Former Prime Minister have agreed. A Joint Select Committee was formed by the National Assembly and the Senate. As Members of the National Assembly, for the sake of the unity of this nation, let us pass the Bill the way it is not because of any individual, but we trust that if there is a compromise reached as it was reached, we pass it. If ... view

• 31 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I support the amendment the way it is. However, they are talking about a competitive process which they have not defined. Is the recruitment going to be done by the Public Service Commission (PSC)? This is a grey area which, if left open, may not be followed. The CS may appoint people and if they are gazetted, there is nobody who will question them. I do not know if it is too late to ask for a further amendment on this. Those people should be appointed by the CS, but through the PSC. That is what ... view
• 31 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: I support, but I wish we could have an amendment to define the competitive process of recruitment. Which is the method? Is it through the PSC? We know that there is no other method you can use to recruit people unless you pass through the PSC. That is because it is the only organ we have. I wish the Chair can take up that point. view
• 30 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. This is how taxation goes: Either you pay excise duty or not. You cannot bring things which are not zero-rated. Either they are zero-rated or you pay taxes. In terms of sanitary towels, are they zero-rated or do they attract excise duty? If they are not zero-rated, then Hon. Mule is right to move the amendment so that we are sure that at the time when the goods come, the person does not pay any extra money because of taxation. Exempting the items from VAT is a different column. The Chair should tell us, ... view

• 24 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me a chance to contribute to this Report. The point I want to raise is that this Report has been negotiated by both sides of the House. It involved the leadership of the House, including the Leader of the Majority Party and the Leader of the Minority Party. Let us remember where we are coming from. This Report has been produced following demonstrations which resulted in deaths of some people who wanted the IEBC to leave office. If people want to propose amendments, they can do so after we pass this Motion. We ... view
