  • 21 May 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, therefore, I would want to say that even when you look at the way it is structured, a lot of the same Senators who were there at that time actually were complaining then that the Senate would become very--- I am looking for a polite word view
  • 21 May 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. view
  • 21 May 2013 in National Assembly: I want to say at the outset that the intention of this Motion is very noble. The intention of the Mover of the Motion is to provide a mechanism through which we can revive our agro-based industries. The challenge that I see, which many hon. Members also see, is that we are saying that these agro-based industries are already facing challenges. They have incurred a lot of liabilities and a good number of them have been going through many problems. Even if the Government were to off-set those debts and transfer these bodies to the devolved units, what guarantees are ... view
  • 16 May 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Deputy Speaker. Is the hon. Member in order to refer to us as the “entire CORD fraternity?” To the best of my recollection, all of us have not contributed at the same time, or as the entire CORD fraternity. It was not a chorus. I hope you will give me a chance, because I have been waiting. Can I, please, have a chance to contribute? view
  • 16 May 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I stayed here purposely up to this time to contribute. I want to say that I support the Motion. I would want to indicate that if CORD had listened to me, we would already have passed this a long time. I had agreed with Jubilee Coalition on that point. Let us just be cognizant of the fact that Jubilee has the numbers, we do not. Let us live with it and move. We were told that we need to move on because Kenya is greater than all of us. view
  • 16 May 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I want to indicate that I am cognizant of the reality. My neighbour from Migori is also cognizant of that reality. The reason why I would want us to form these committees and form them very quickly is because we are having a lot of problems in this country. There is a bridge near my home in Lambwe Valley that needs to be repaired. I need CDF funds because I cannot reach my new home which I built two or three years ago. Again, I am very concerned. I want to deal with very fishy business in ... view

  • 14 May 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. Although I wanted to stand on a point of order, I thank you for giving me this opportunity to contribute to the Motion. I want to say that I am utterly appalled by the remarks by the Majority Leader. If you look at the issues he is talking about in relation to Ms. Kandie, he is brave enough to stand before us and tell us that there were no issues of integrity and there were no issues touching on her that would make them reject her. My concern is that it is unconstitutional. I will take ... view
  • 14 May 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, as women in this House, we cannot allow such things. We will not allow that. Even as I am concluding--- view
