8 May 2019 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I have listened to the comments by Members. In accordance, I want to propose a further amendment and drop Section 87B (2). That is the part that relates to interest payable. I have been listening to the sentiments of Members. I propose to drop that one in line with the comments by Hon. Makali Mulu. However, at the same time, as much as I am grateful that the House has supported the issue of setting a maximum limit, there must be a consequence. We do things on paper but if there is no consequence, ...

8 May 2019 in National Assembly:
The Chair of the Budget and Appropriations Committee has given a very good example about what we are borrowing from China. We need to take care of people who have lent money to Government in terms of pending bills. Before we take care of even China, we must take care of our people. If there is someone to suffer, it should not be our people. Why would you want to pay China before paying our people? In retrospections, I beg to move this amendment and beseech Members to look at this particular issue because these people are from Garissa, Seme ...

7 May 2019 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I also equally oppose this amendment because the act of signing a contract is a legal issue. Commencement is an administrative issue. It exposes contractors to the mischief of invalidating a contract by way of not giving a commencement letter which is an administrative action. It is neither good for the procuring entity nor for a contractor. I beg to oppose.

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I echo and support the Leader of the Majority Party in matters of us being serious with the business before the House. It is true that some of the Members or Chairs of Committees may not have been ready. Let us look at it from the point of view of Members, as Hon. Millie has said, who have had to work extra hard to come up with their amendments. If you look at my situation, for this Bill to be postponed and given my busy schedule out there as a presidential candidate, you will agree ...

20 Nov 2018 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, I thank you and the House for guidance on this matter. I echo what my colleague has said about the use of this route of changing laws. We can only hide our heads in the sand, but what we saw in the last few days is worrying. Even members of the Executive are saying that amendments are finding their way to miscellaneous amendment Bills without their knowledge. Committees are expressing the same fear. We need to have retrospection as a House and ask ourselves whether this is the best way to pass amendments with far reaching implications. Thank ...
