• 3 May 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I support the proposed amendment by Hon. Nassir. It is important that we respect constitutional commissions. This amendment enforces the provisions of Article 67 of our Constitution. I support the amendment. view
• 14 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to make a few comments on the President’s Address. As I proceed to do so, I am guided by Section 32 in the President’s Speech when he emphasized that his administration is key in ensuring immediate improvement of Kenyan’s lives. This is the basic role of the Government. In analysing this Address, it is important to point out that the President did not highlight or reiterate the functions of the counties and the national Government. At the outset, I would like to point out that the national Government should support the counties ... view
• 14 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, in Schedule 4 of our Constitution, agriculture is one of the devolved functions. If this country has to create employment for our youth and our people in general, then we must emphasise on agriculture. The present Government and the governments that were there before it have always emphasised on the need to revive our industries whenever they went to Kilifi County for public rallies. If jobs have to be created, the Government must be committed to the revival of the dairy, cashew nuts and the coconut industries, which are mostly found in the Coast. There have ... view
• 14 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: The other aspect I want to take up in the President’s speech is the question of infrastructure. In his address, the President mentioned the Mariakani-Kaloleni-Kilifi Road in Kilifi County. I agree with him that something is being done but the only problem is that it has taken quite long to complete that road. About three or four contractors have been engaged to construct that road. I would like to remind His Excellency the President that there is need for speeding up the construction of that road so that at the end of the day, the people of Kilifi County and ... view
• 14 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: I do not wish to forget that we passed that we need at least 20 kilometres of road. I want to report today that some contractors have gone to construct the Mariakani-Bamba Road. This is a very crucial road. I still want to emphasise that the bureaucracy that we have seen all over must The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 14 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: stop. Three years down the line, nothing much has happened. One thing that this Government needs to put in mind is handling matters in a speedy manner so that at the end of the day, we do not accuse them of delaying the works. view
• 14 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: As I conclude, I wish to join His Excellency the President in saying that counties must give us results. The President said that we have to demand results from the counties. The county governments must provide health care, water and all the other services which have been devolved. Today most of the sub-counties lack water. Our people do not get clean water. view
• 30 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I wish to add my voice to this Motion. I will begin by thanking Hon. Wanyonyi for bringing it to the Floor of this House. This Motion is informed by two issues: First, there is need for Kenyans to register as voters. In most occasions, the young men who have attained the age of 18 have not been able to do so. If this Motion sails through and has already been stated that the law is in place then we will have a good number of young people who have attained the age of ... view
• 30 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: The gist of this Motion, as it has been stated under Articles 38 and 260 of the Constitution is the definition of an adult as a person who has attained the age of 18 years and above. In my reading of the Constitution and in particular Article 83, for the registration of a voter, the only requirement is that one must be an adult. If that is the position, then I do not see any reason why a person who has attained the age of 18 years should not be registered as a voter. Most of the stakeholders in this ... view
• 30 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I wish to add my voice to this debate. I believe that, at the end of my contribution, I will have declared my stand on this Land Laws (Amendment) Bill. The clamour for a new Constitution was basically informed by the need to take care of issues of land in this country. The successive Governments have always struggled to ensure that the land question is addressed conclusively, which has not been possible. I want to believe the introduction of this Bill is an attempt to see whether the land ... view
