• 26 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. When we adjourned, I was encouraging a synergy between the teachers’ trade unions and the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) in ensuring that performance in schools is part of their focus and that head teachers who constantly post poor results should be deprived of the opportunity and privilege to head schools. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to look at Article 18 on page 1360 which talks of the Commission in its recruitment policy, taking into account persons with disabilities and regional and ethnic diversity of the people of Kenya. While this is very good and consistent ... view
• 26 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Article 30 talks of removal from the register. I want to propose that we expand the provisions so that teachers who have been removed from the register for aggravated offences like molestation of school children and other felonies should not be given an opportunity even to teach in private schools because what does happen is that you will find a teacher is removed from the register from teaching in a public school and the next morning he is in a private school and some of them go on to do the same same things for which they ... view
• 21 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Chairman, Sir, the purpose of having a Political Parties Act and the intention to sanitize and discipline political parties and their Members is constitutional. If a person elects to join a political party, you make a conscious decision to be a member of that party, participate in the activities of that party, nominate candidates of that party and nowhere else. It cannot be that you are a member of Gikomba Party, you go and nominate candidates on the Kamukunji Party. That is not the intention of the Political Parties Act. That is also not the intention of the Constitution. ... view

In the past, and indulge me to say this, when you went for nomination for elections, all you needed to do was to go to the bus park and collect manambas and field them to intimidate your opponent and get nominated. We have sanitized and changed this, so that there is a register of a political party in the constituency and county, with the Registrar of Political Parties and the Electoral Commission to that extent. If you elect to belong to a political party then you must play by the rules of that political party. ... view

• 21 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Chairman, Sir, I do conclude by urging the House that if we want to live to the spirit of the reforms we are carrying out in this country, then we must respect the laws we have passed. It is wrong and politically immoral to say that Members of TNA are given an opportunity to go and decide who should be candidates for FORD-K or Members of ODM are given an opportunity to go and decide who should be candidates for URP. That is not proper. That is not what the law says and that is not what we should ... view
• 21 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Chairman, Sir. Is Mr. Waititu in order to take a trajectory that is completely irrelevant to what we are discussing? He is discussing something completely unrelated to what we are discussing here. view
• 21 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Chairman, Sir. Hon. Ethuro referred to page 3688(A) on the Order Paper. But in the Order Paper, I do not have that page. view
• 21 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: I have not got it. It is passed but we may have another one again. view
• 21 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Sir. I want to persuade the Attorney-General and hon. Kimunya to see the point that hon. Abdikadir has raised. view
