• 25 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: they are paying all that money, they tell you that if you pay Kshs2,000 you can get it in a single day; if you pay Kshs1,000 you get it in two days; and if you just pay the official amount required, you can stay for three weeks or even one month without getting that document. Kenyans live on less than US$1 per day. A big percentage of Kenyans - maybe 70 per cent - are very poor. They cannot afford those documents. You can imagine a family of seven children, how much will they pay to get that certificate? That ... view

• 6 Dec 2017 in National Assembly: Part 5 of this Bill provides for financial provisions which will ensure that there will be accountability of the funds of the Board such as those monies appropriated by the National Assembly, gifts, grants, donations or other endowment fund given to the Board.

It says that the provisions will ensure that only genuine registered building surveyors can practise or carry out the building surveying business There are many quack surveyors or fake building surveyors who con the public by taking their money.

• 6 Dec 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Bill also stipulates the guarantee bond or policy insurance to be issued by an insurance company. Furthermore, it has stated the stipulated amount to be carried by an individual, two or more individuals or a corporate body.

There are not going to be any shortcuts. We all know that there are many shortcuts in this field, ... view
