  • 24 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I thank the Committee for bringing this Report that highlights what is going on with the stadia in Kenya and the project that was promised by the Jubilee Government. Sports are a source of employment and entertainment. They also contribute to health and well-being. The only thing I regret is that the when the Member was moving the Motion, he only mentioned certain sports but he did not mention water sports. In our area, water sports like canoe regatta are very popular. Even though we are not looking at ... view
  • 24 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: Other than looking at the stadia, one of the things that the Committee should do is to look at the man-made challenges that we, who have the water sports which do not need anything to be built. We are now being harassed by hippopotamuses. One of my constituents was killed in usao (?) area today in the morning. Another hippopotamus killed someone last week in the same area while he was exercising his right to undertake the sports. I will raise the issue with the relevant The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified ... view
  • 24 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: Committee. I want to note that even when you are thinking of sports, let us be broad and think outside the regular sports that we know of. view
  • 24 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: It is regrettable that this very good initiative is subject to the usual corruption that has now become a second name of this country. I want to encourage the authorities to take very stern action. There is something I have seen that is emerging in this country. Instead of going for the real culprits, we start playing politics with the corruption issue, especially when it gets nearer to election. That is what has stopped us from dealing with the actual thieves. As we deal with corruption, you will hear of National Government-Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF) cases because the opponents will ... view
  • 24 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: Even though we knew that we wanted to empower our counties in sports, the building of stadia is devolved to counties. I want to encourage our county governments. We have the youth who form the bulk of the youth who are idle. The young boys and girls are being found all over the estates getting involved in very unhealthy activities. If we have sports or stadia over this period that they are idle, that can divert their energies into something which is more productive. I want to encourage the Committee to please follow this matter to the logical conclusion, so ... view

  • 5 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. Before I comment on the issue of COVID-19, I wish to celebrate the women because today, there are two women that were given key positions. One of them was my junior in FIDA and the other one was my boss. They are Immaculate Kassait and Jean Kamau. I did not get an opportunity, but I just want to say it is a good moment. It is not only them. There are other women who have been given positions. That is a good thing for us as women. I congratulate ... view
  • 5 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: Chairpersons that their positions are ones of responsibility and not just about titles. So, we encourage them especially as we will be moving closer to the elections that those who are not able to manage should leave for people like Hon. Nyikal, who is always in the House, to manage. However, having said that, I just want to say that I support this. I think it is very evident that, as a country, we are facing a very serious challenge with COVID-19. I know that here we are talking about the police stations or those in the justice system. I ... view
