  • 23 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: I am not disputing the numbers. What I am saying - and I do not think it is something that you can adequately respond to now - is that you direct the House for future operations--- There is a lot of confusion. I saw it last week and I am seeing it this week. Please, just re-look at the procedure because I know the two-thirds requirement is constitutional and we must have it. However, how we are going to proceed in the House with those numbers is not clear. The way it has been done here is a bit blurry. ... view

  • 18 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I rise to oppose the amendment for two main reasons. Firstly, the provision is unconstitutional, under Article 38 of the Constitution. Everybody has a political right, including freedom to join and participate in any political party. Secondly, as we make law, we should not do so from a vindictive perspective. We need to think as Kenyans and move beyond the now. Let us be pragmatic, nationalistic and legislate for our leaders. Finally, one of the reasons as to why I have consistently objected to all the proposals that my good friend, Hon. Duale, has ... view
  • 17 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I thank the Committee for bringing this Report. I want to indicate that this Committee is fairly new. For a long time, if you told somebody that you were going to that Committee; most Members were very hesitant because the Committee has often been seen as dead.

Even as I was listening carefully to the Mover, I was of the view that there is a lot that we can do. We ... view

  • 17 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: the House, I felt that they would require a little bit more information. When a Member brings a Motion, he or she has thought through it. I want to give an example of the Resolution to establish girls’ boarding schools in ASAL areas. The Mover only mentioned about three boarding schools. Even if it is by way of annexes, we would need the Committee to indicate for us where the ASALs are and what response has been done. Even if you tell us three girls’ boarding schools have been initiated, how can we know and in relation to what? I ... view
