• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I wish to support this amendment, specifically the one that provides that regulations shall provide guidelines on gender representation and participation of persons with disability and other marginalised groups on the boards of CMOs. I encourage the Chairman of the Committee that, in subsequent ones, they need to be as clear as where they are providing for smaller organisations. They should provide for the same on the boards. As a writer and a person who did intellectual property rights for my masters, I think most of the amendments they are providing are very progressive. ... view
• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: I do not know whether this is part of discrimination because I am a permanent feature here. Maybe you can advise on the fact that there are no computers where I am sitting yet there are some in other areas. No wonder I was not able to get the information I wanted as fast as I wanted. view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I have a proposed amendment to the Motion. I beg to move: THAT, the Motion be amended by adding the following words, ‘Ringiti, Mfangano, after the word ‘Remba’ in line three, and further adding the words ‘including through the establishment of a naval force to man the Lake Victoria waters’ at the end of the Motion.

• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: I have seven habitable islands, but the three that are closest to Uganda and Tanzania are Remba, Ringiti and Mfangano. The reason I want to add them by name is that at some point, Rusinga Island was annexed to the mainland through the bridge that the President launched and it is no longer an island. While I was in Rusinga Island, I was informed that there were Ugandan forces in a beach called Litare within Rusinga Island. Fortunately, when I went there, the Kenyan police arrested the forces. Fortunately, on this instant, it turned out that it was Kenyan policemen ... view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: I stand guided, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I will, therefore, move the amendment and request my sister, Hon. Obara, to second it. Because the country needs to know what we are dealing with and I need to read the Busia Declaration to know what our fishermen are going through. Thank you. view

• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. When I was moving my amendment, I had alluded to the fact that there was a Busia Declaration of 22nd July 2017. I had hoped that I would have time to speak, but I have been told that I moved and so I can speak later. However, I think this information is very important for every Member that is contributing. It is important to know that when the fishermen were tired of not getting help from our own country, on their own initiative, they went and met with the Ugandan forces ... view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: that no fishing boat would be allowed to carry ice in water. They then went ahead to make other declarations that go contrary to the Kenya Fishing and Management Act. The one that I want to specifically mention is number five, which says that hook should be mounted on twine which is either white or brown and not monofilament. The deadline for changing all these should have been on 31st July 2017, which was one week from the date of the meeting they had. Resolution Number 8 says: view
