• 2 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Minister for bringing the Bill to the House. It is an important Bill which clears doubts in the minds of quite a big group of Kenyans who have been worried for quite a while; namely, the chiefs. In fact, I had petitioned Parliament, on behalf of the chiefs. I was away, but I want view
• 2 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, that cadre of Kenyans are an extremely important group in our leadership structure. Conflict resolutions in this country are done at--- view
• 2 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I was saying, the chiefs or that cadre of leadership is extremely important in the management of the affairs of the country. When you look at conflict resolution and the role that the chiefs play, it is extremely important. When I went round listening to them, they were telling us some stories of how they manage conflict. Even when there are family conflicts and one family goes to the police, another to the court and another to the chief, you will find that the family that went to the chief resolved their issues much ... view
• 2 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is okay. I will take the information. view
• 2 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, whereas the information is important, I think we are debating this Bill which then should harmonize. We are talking about the Provincial Administration and it should be harmonized. That is because the village elders are under that system. view
• 11 Oct 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, listening to hon. Amina Abdalla, I am absolutely convinced that it is superfluous. If the political party has nominated you, it has done its job and it will be superfluous that you are required to have the endorsements. view

• 10 Oct 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has said that the suspects are known. Why is it taking such a long time to find them? Are they using the local administration, for example, the village elders and sub-chiefs who would know the area and comb it to the last point to ensure that these people are found? It is not a very large area that it cannot be covered. view
• 26 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, one of the most important institutions of the Provincial Administration, but one that the Government has had no time for, is that of village elders. Their service is always exploited. Without village elders, security at the village level cannot be a reality. Without them, Government information cannot reach the villages. Even as the Prime Minister was speaking, I did not hear him talk about them. This House passed a Motion that urged the Government to pay a salary to these elders. Could the Prime Minister ensure that, that resolution by Parliament is implemented immediately? In the devolved ... view
• 12 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I find the matter being canvassed, when you are unfortunately on the Chair, strange. Hon. Members know that this House also depends on traditions, practices, et cetera . For a long time, Members of the Speaker’s Panel have been chosen in the manner you have been chosen. The current Constitution came into effect two years ago. Where was hon. Mbadi to raise the matter until after two years, unless there is some malice in what he is doing? Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, therefore, I would urge you to find the matter frivolous, so that ... view
