  • 13 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. He is misinforming the House. If I have the Standing Order I will quote it for you. Is it in order for the Hon. Member to misinform the House? The way he is misinforming the House is not on the basis that Hon. Duale was saying. The Constitution allows for recognition of ethnicity, so that there is fairness but not recognition of regions. Is the Member in order to mislead the House that the list is unconstitutional when we should actually be looking at the ethnic composition that appears fair as opposed to regional ... view
  • 13 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me the opportunity. I wish to support. I will be very brief. Number one, the role of the Member of Parliament in the NG-CDF is oversight. Members have been speaking as though we have a role beyond that. Secondly, there are Members that have been appointed, some that are known to me and that I have worked with in various capacities like Mr. Masese, Irene Masit and Edick Anyanga. From the work we have done with them, I have confidence. Even though I may not know the others, from what the Members ... view

  • 13 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: qualified. I am specifically happy that we have Isabel Nyambura Waiyaki. I was telling the Chair of Budget and Appropriations Committee that even though he is gone, I am always a defender of women So, I am here to make sure that all the women that have been put through pass. I am, therefore, very happy with the gender inclusion. On the ethnic inclusion, I want to refer to Article 232 of the Constitution on values and principles of public service, specifically paragraph (h) that says that one of the values is representing Kenya’s diverse communities and in (i), affording ... view

  • 13 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: which allowed this Motion to come to the Floor. I am the one who raised the point of order yesterday in regard to the process. The reason I was raising the issue in regard to the process is because I was appalled that we will be dealing with individual cases and the sort of Pandora ’s box that we are likely to open. For instance, if we are not happy with the Law Society of Kenya (LSK), we can come here and decide that somebody is not qualified. However, given that our mandate is broad and the Speaker has ruled ... view

  • 12 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I did not wish to interrupt the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party when he is responding, especially given that he has been fairly quiet of late. I am very supportive when he gets the rare opportunity to speak in the House. But be that as it may, he has raised an important issue that he will discuss with the Legal Department and your office about some amendments to see whether they relate to what the President has already assented to. view
  • 12 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, he is raising some fundamental issues. As I was sitting here I was getting a sense of déjà vu . Other than the fact that you let me know that I had spoken to it, which I had forgotten, but then the sense of déjà vu is: Have we not dealt with a lot of these things in the recent past? Is there a way that we can deal with these things in a more coordinated manner so that we are not acting in vain that the same piece of legislation comes before this House the same year ... view
