• 9 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I agree with the Minister, save that, that is not the reason why I moved this amendment. As lawyers, we always want to be certain. So, where we have seen mischief in the past, we correct the mischief. So, it is not that I agree that, that was the correct position. view
• 9 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 9 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. I wish to support the amendment, especially on Clause 3 which has to do with inclusion of children. I know it was forgotten. Even earlier today in the House, we had a situation where a Minister was actually alluding to children as being an appendage to adults. We know that children in their tender years need support and guidance but they are still human beings in their own rights.

I want to congratulate the hon. Member for bringing such a Motion before this House. In supporting it, I want to indicate that herbal medicine is one of the most misunderstood concepts in this country. Even as I was coming here from one of the Committees, some of the hon. Members were joking and saying that I was part of the dying negative or retrogressive culture that still supports traditional concepts. Herbal ... view
• 9 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I really did not want to contribute on gender, but I want to support the Mover and thank hon. Dr. Khalwale for the vote of confidence on women. I wish he had actualized it and moved an amendment that 50 per cent be women. Apart from that, I want to congratulate the Mover of this Motion. This is a very momentous time, for us as a country. Kenyans have been calling for a lean Cabinet and we have provided that. view
