• 25 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to second the Motion. There is no need to extend their time because counties are doing their job. Even if you extend their term, I do not think they are going to do much. That is the reason why our Committee and the Cabinet Secretary for Planning and Devolution agreed not to give them more time. We will see the way forward after passing this Motion. I beg to second. Thank you. view
• 23 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to speak about the sugar industry. We have been writing the Report on sugar for a long time. We have also discussed about this industry for almost three years now. The Report is being debated in this House and I support it. Farmers are suffering because some people are importing sugar when our sugar is still in the factories’ warehouses. There are also people who say that they are importing sugar and yet they buy it locally and when it reaches the border it is brought and sold in this country ... view
• 23 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: I support this Report and God bless the sugar industry. view
• 17 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this chance. I support the two nominees whom we vetted and saw that they qualify for the jobs. Dr. Tuimur is qualified to be the PS for the State Department for Livestock because we want the livestock sector in this country to grow so that people can get more milk and meat and export the excess. He also knows a lot about this sector. view
• 17 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: The second one, Bw. Nduati, as you can see, has been doing a lot of work in irrigation in this country. When we looked at his CV and his oral presentation, we got satisfied that he was very qualified. I support him. I thank the President because this time round, he has appointed people who are qualified for the jobs. As the Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Co- operatives, we have problems with irrigation and livestock in this country. view
• 2 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to support this Motion. view
• 2 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: 29 Wednesday 2nd December, 2015(A) This Motion is very important to this country. If we pass this Motion, this country is going to change. My constituency is next to a forest and we can see the effects of destruction. River Gura in my constituency used to have a lot of water. When people destroyed Mt. Kenya Forest, the river dried up. The river used to supply water to the residents of Tetu in Nyeri County. If people are educated about the environment and resources, this country will change. There are some people who do not get enough food because there ... view
• 24 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to support the Adjournment Motion. We love God because he created us. It is, therefore, important to give respect to the Holy Father. We should learn to forgive our enemies and be one. We should be able to sit with the Opposition in one table. As God said, when we forgive, he will also forgive us. I hope that since the Pope is coming to this country, we as MPs should unite. If there is something wrong, let us sit together and solve our problems as one so that ... view
• 18 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to support this Bill. First of all, I thank all the Members who supported me when I lost my sister. Thank you very much for your support. May God add you more? I rise to support this Bill. However, there is one thing I want to look at because the Commissioner-General says that it is impossible to recover unpaid taxes. I do not think it is impossible in this country. If everybody working and any business have a PIN, if they do not pay tax, the Commissioner-General has a ... view
• 18 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: Sometimes, landlords say they have repaired their houses with a lot of money so they do not have money to pay tax, but they still make money. The Government is forced to apply for loans outside the country for development projects. The Commissioner-General should use technology and employ detectives who can go round buying things from those who do not give receipts. They will arrest so many people. As a result, tax will be paid throughout the year so that we can get money to build roads and hospitals and to educate our children. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. ... view
