• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, because I cannot remember very well, let me apologise and withdraw. view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I withdraw and apologise, but allow me to say, as the Leader of the Minority Party said, that sometimes when a preacher preaches and you hear the message, you can just repent and keep quiet. My message may have touched a few people, but for the record… view
• 19 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I also join my colleagues in condoling with my Senator, Sen. Ben Oluoch Okello. Indeed, this is one gentleman who has not got the full opportunity to serve his people. Of the 11 months from the time he was elected, he has largely been in hospital. But, when you look at the HANSARD Report of the Senate, he is one of the people who have spoken. You are aware that there are Members in this House who will take many years or months before they even utter a word. The Senator was very active. Indeed, the ... view
• 19 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: As a MP from the very county, I join the family. We will stand with the family. To the people of Rongo, we condole with you for losing your constituent. I pray that the people of Rongo will give us a better Senator. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
• 19 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The Member for Rongo was saying that he has put his request on the list. May you remember him. I want to speak as a representative. I come from the sugar belt. The SONY Sugar is the company which is next to my constituency. I want to lay the blame that we are seeing on the sugar industry on the Treasury. There is no single Gazette Notice that waves duty. view
• 19 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: The consultations are too high. view
• 19 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: I just wanted to say that we should start with the Treasury. There is no single Gazette Notice that can see the light of day in the approval of the Treasury. I sit in the Budget and Appropriations Committee and I am on record as having asked the Cabinet Secretary in charge what he is doing about the sugar industry. He was very blatant, and the records of Parliament are there, to confirm what I am saying. The Cabinet Secretary said that State- owned sugar companies are going to be sold and the Treasury is not going to do any ... view
• 19 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: the port. I have listened to the Leader of the Majority Party who says that small traders cannot be able to deal with this sugar. We also know that there are people who are given licences, but the small traders in this country are the owners of the licences. Because of connections to power, they are able to secure the licences and give them to small traders to bring in sugar. We also know that it is illegal to be in position of something that has been stolen or is contraband. Being in possession of contraband goods is a criminal ... view
• 21 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: Yes, Sir. Thank you. Though you have substantively covered the issue of the Parliamentary Service Commission, I just wanted to highlight something. I do not know whether it is I who did not hear you very well when you were doing your mathematics around how the slots have been shared and you talked about ODM having about 1.78 and you rounded it off to two, which is mathematically correct; and then you talked about Wiper having 0.48. When The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from ... view
• 21 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: you round it off, it does not come to 1. So there is some inconsistency in that mathematics and I want to challenge the HBC. Having said that, you went further and said that ANC has around 0.3 and FORD-Kenya 0.2. If you add the two, if they are in concurrence, you will realise that then Wiper might not even qualify for that very slot. I am afraid that if you proceed… view
