• 4 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: The issue of the right to health is one of the Big Four Agenda of the President and this is one of the most significant areas that affect the lives of women, children, young people, persons with disabilities and vulnerable groups especially the reproductive rights and health. It is only this weekend when I was in my constituency of Suba North and a woman who had a very big problem with her breast came to me. It is even not clear what it is just because she could not afford Kshs3,000 to go for a test. In the same small ... view
• 4 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: It is very disheartening when you see these kinds of scenarios and you have a serious healthcare and facility that has taken money from taxpayers lying idle. In my constituency, the life expectancy is 37 years. It is embarrassing for a country that we can at this age and time consider a situation such as KNH facility. This is why I am saying it is embarrassing because the amount of money that goes into corruption alone far much outweighs what can be put into that facility. view
• 29 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I have looked at the Capital Markets Bill and I do not want to comment on it at this time. I will be bringing my amendments at the Committee of the whole House stage. However, I had contributions to the order on treaties. So, with those remarks, I wish to support. I will bring my amendment at the Committee of the whole House. view
• 29 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I can give them the tricks. You must have about six names. I have Gesagesa, Millie, Grace, Akoth, Odhiambo. I have about seven. So, you will use different ones to confuse the Speaker. So, today he gives Hon. Millie, tomorrow, Odhiambo, the next day, Akoth, the other day, Gesagesa and the other day, Mabona. view
• 29 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I just wanted to go on record. I actually said that I will be moving amendments on this, but I will not be bringing any amendment on this one. This is just for record. view
• 28 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Bill. Even as I am supporting it, I wish that our legislative drafters would not be lazy because it would have made sense if they consolidated it to the Public Procurement and Assets Disposal Act so that it would be something like Public Contract Procurement and Assets Disposal Act. This is because there is a lot of reference to the Public Procurement and Assets Disposal Act. Because they are dealing very lightly with similar issues, it would make sense for this Bill to have been a chapter in that ... view
• 28 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Clause 9 gives the sole responsibilities of the Office of the Attorney-General when the services are of a legal nature. I thought I had heard that the Attorney General would be signing contracts on behalf of Government agencies. But it has been clarified that it is only in relation to legal services. For the other ones, the Attorney General will not sign for them. Clause 12 provides: “(1) The following terms are deemed to be expressly set out in every contract that provides for the payment of any money by the Government – (a) the contractor declares and warrants that ... view
• 28 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I support the Bill. view
• 27 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me the opportunity. I stand under Standing Order No. 95. Going by the mood of the House, will I be in order to call upon the Mover to reply? view
• 27 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support. Even as I do so, I congratulate the Committee and the Chair, Hon. Gladys Boss Shollei. I hope she will be considered as one of the awardees when Parliament forwards names for awards. She has done an excellent job. I have been in this Parliament and I have seen the work Committee chairs do, but she has done an excellent job. At the same time, I congratulate Hon. Amina Abdalla for coming up with the Statutory Instruments Bill that produced this Act. It has ensured that Parliament has a say ... view
