• 6 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this important Motion. I support the Motion as amended because the issue of security in this country is paramount. We must be alive to the fact that us, as lawmakers, we need to make laws that enhance security. We should support our security agents by making laws that enable them to work effectively. I also want to concur with the Mover of the Motion on discrimination. This is evident in Pokot County where we have Somalis living as residents. They get discriminated in terms of the ... view
• 6 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: According to the estimates by the IEBC of last year, the constituency is supposed to register 72,000 voters. The actual registered voters were 24,000. This is because the constituents cannot access the registration centres or there were no immigration officers at the registration centers are required. Some Kenyans are qualified to be employed, but because they do not possess identity cards, they miss job opportunities. A case in particular was during the recent police recruitment exercise where we had people who had certificates and who came with waiting cards. Others did not have identity cards. This is a very serious ... view
• 6 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Fund. I am sure a number of Kenyans in other constituencies, apart from mine, will not enjoy the benefits of that Fund because they do not have identity cards. This is a serious matter that even before trying to address other issues like unemployment, the Government should be concerned about how to register those citizens first. With those few remarks, I support the Motion as amended. view

• 17 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order 44(2)(c) I wish to request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security regarding the state of insecurity in the country. Incidents of violence related to cattle rustling are still rampant in parts of this country. For instance, Abuke Vilage in Akolaki Location lost over 1000 livestock. One person was killed and several others injured during a recent incident. 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
• 17 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, in his Statement the Chairperson should inquire into and report on when and how the Government will recover the stolen livestock which is purported to have been taken by non-raiders; failure to which we will act.

Nyamai for introducing this Motion. This Motion has come at the right time when the country is embracing technology. By enhancing a unified identification system, the security of our citizens will be guaranteed. Terrorists and even drug dealers will find it difficult to access such important documents. The current form of registration is prone to corruption, which makes it easy for criminals to compromise the issuing officers. For example, in the recent recruitment of ... view
