  • 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I really think for purposes of legal philosophy and maybe just because we want to save time I can live with it. However, I think it is something we need to look at again because when Kenya negotiates with France, it does not negotiate with France as a body corporate. view
  • 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I beg to oppose because Mr. Mungatana is not giving us the correct constitutional provision. The Constitution talks of both equality and equity. However, we have tended to over- emphasize equity. So, I would actually want to laud the drafters that for the first time, some people have actually recognized that the Constitution talks of both equality and equality and equity. I, therefore, oppose. view

  • 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. Is the hon. Member in order to mislead the House that what is being proposed is unconstitutional? Because of lack of time, I would not be able to find for you all the articles, but I want to read for you an example. The preamble says: “Recognizing the Aspirations of Kenyans for a Government based on among other things human rights equality.” That is a constitutional language. I would like to look at Article 27 on Equality and Freedom from Discrimination. It has some clauses from 1 up to 5. ... view
  • 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I very proudly go on record as opposing. I know what equality means. I know what equity means. That is why I oppose. view
  • 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I wish to note that under the Constitution, there are units below which it is up to the county levels to create. They should create the units that they want and even though we may create this, it will act as guidance. But it is not obligatory for the county government to use them. view
  • 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. I understand that we are trying to beat time, but would I please request that hon. Members cite the page number so that we can follow? That way, we will not be passing what we have no clue about. view
  • 22 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also want to join Kenyans in giving my condolences to the family of the late hon. Michuki. That is one of the people I respected in this country, because he stood firm in what he believed. It did not matter whether or not you agreed with him. I respect that in a person. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also respected his strength of character. Even when the going was tough, he stood firm in what he believed. I also respected the fact that he delivered. If half of us worked as hard as him, this ... view
  • 22 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, while making your decision, I would want to urge that you consider what the import of the law that we passed is. There are Members who are very furiously opposed to that law and as Members of Parliament we unanimously passed a law saying that we pass the Report here. When we pass a report to Parliament, does it go to a committee or does it come to the whole House. You need to make that decision. The other issue I would want you to decide on is even though we are saying that we are ... view
