  • 21 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs considers this, I encourage that the regulations be timed so that we do not leave it open-ended. There should be a timeline for the regulations to be effected. I support. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view

  • 21 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Based on your ruling and for purposes of record, there are very many women in the House who wanted to contribute. But, because of time, they have not been able to contribute. Let this go down in history. view

  • 20 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I urge you to consider the request by Hon. Jakoyo because I think the Members of the National Assembly have been bewitched. We need a session to exorcise the spirits that have bewitched Members of the National Assembly. I can only tell Members the reason why I think they are bewitched in a view
  • 20 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: . I should apologise because if I explain to Members why they are bewitched, they will know. Part of that bewitchment has to do with what Hon. Njoroge Baiya said. We are all elected Members. The Constitution is very clear about our roles. One of our roles is oversight. We sit here, as Members of Parliament, to approve and give other Members lose money to play oversight roles while we sit here and cheer them. When you do that, it can only be through bewitchment amongst other things. view
  • 20 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: You cannot give other Members money and yet we are in politics. I will not be politically-correct.. We are giving people lose money. They are going to the constituencies to call lose meetings when we know that we have just passed the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NGCDF) after people have gone to court to disallow Members of Parliament from active engagement with CDF and then we are cheering them. We can only do that if we agree, as Members of the National Assembly, that we are no longer interested in politics, so that we sit and escort others as ... view
  • 20 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: and look at the issue of our roles again. I do not have any problem with Senators being given any money. However, as a human rights lawyer very keen on issues of discrimination, if they are getting that money, the National Assembly must get that money because their role is similar to ours. We also do oversight role. Another reason why I would not support this is the framers of the Constitution, which I am one, talked against gender discrimination. Even as the Mover was talking about a club of men, we have women Senators. You cannot have men allocating ... view
  • 20 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Finally, I want to say that, probably, I am the only Member of Parliament who wanted to go to Meru. I disagree with our members who are saying we should not go. I respect you, Hon. Speaker, when you said we do not need to go but, personally, I would have wanted to go for one reason; that if I disagree with them, at the very least, let me whistle blow when I am in Meru. If I disagree with them, let me go there and whistle blow. However, as the National Assembly, we also need to interrogate the Senators ... view
