• 29 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: leave alone any equipment. We are talking about improving tax from the existing places. I want the Chair and the Vice-Chair to note that there is no collection of revenue in those four counties that I have mentioned and yet, there is a lot of traffic of goods across the border. It is really very sad. I know that custom officials in Garissa County are based in Garissa Town. That is where we have immi gration offi ci als i n desi gnat ed points at Liboi. view
• 29 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: We have custom officers in Wajir County. We were at Diff yesterday which is two kilometres from the Somalia border. It is a gazetted custom immigration point. Our Speaker was with us yesterday. If we put the necessary equipment, this is a place which can become a revenue source. I want the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning to visit Mandera County which has Mandera Border Control Point, Diff, and Liboi in Garissa County, and Fafi, Amuma and Kiunga in Lamu County. Those are some of the officially gazetted points. If those border posts were there, we would collect ... view
• 29 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: This is a very good Report which will improve tax collection at the existing points. However, we need to note that there are places where we can get substantial amount of revenue which can reduce our Budget deficit. I ask the Committee to consider this. The measures which they have recommended in the Report are very valid. They will go a long way in making us to collect more tax. view
• 29 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me the chance to contribute. view
• 11 May 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I am not satisfied with the Statement given by the Hon. Cabinet Secretary to the Committee Chairman because the exercise of vetting Kenyans was done in 2019, even before the outbreak of the COVID-19. I am not convinced that the reason for delay of issuance of identity cards to those Kenyans is well addressed. I would like to get more clarification and the reason why the 18,000 Kenyans who were vetted have not been issued with identity cards. view
• 6 May 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. My Question No. 146/2021 is directed to the Cabinet Secretary (CS), Ministry of Transport, Infrastructure, Housing, Urban Development and Public Works: (i) What is the status of implementation of the Garissa-Liboi-Harhar Road (A13) project with regard to road designs and funding?

• 30 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I request for a Statement on the imminent closure of refugee camps in Kenya. Pursuant to Standing Order 44(2)(c), I wish to request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security regarding the imminent closure of refugee camps in Kenya and, in particular, the Dadaab Refugee Camp. The alleged issuance of a 14-day ultimatum to formulate a plan on the closure of the Dadaab and Kakuma refugee camps by the Government is against the 1951refugee convention and 1967 protocols in regard to legal refugee protection. The Dadaab and the Kakuma refugee ... view
• 23 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you Hon. Speaker for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this Petition. view
• 23 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: I represent Dadaab Constituency which hosts over 200,000 refugees. The issue of double registration may not be understood by many Kenyans. When refugees are in the camps, they share with us our local resources and equally we share with them the resources they get from the international community, including food and shelter. Consequently, the Kenyans who registered themselves as refugees in order to get food and shelter have now been caught in double registration. These Kenyans cannot access ID cards. Consequently, they have become stateless. This matter had been raised at the highest level of Government and a task force ... view
