• 12 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Human rights are women rights and women rights are human rights. It is very important for us to go ahead now and pass this Bill, which has come out openly to make sure that women enjoy their rights as women and as human beings and in the best way that their anatomy has allowed them. It is true that women suffer a lot. First of all, they are denied the enjoyment that they are supposed to enjoy. As a Government, the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Development has gone out and started sensitizing elders who have been behind some ... view
• 22 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Motion. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I was sitting here, I was just wondering when Africa will liberate itself. When will Africa stand on its own if we keep on running to people like Ocampo for help? Out of the UN permanent members – that is the United States of America, China, Russia, Britain and France – only two are members of the ICC. The USA – I think everybody has alluded to that – pulled out after signing. China and Russia have not been members of the ICC. ... view
• 2 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) There were 750 beneficiaries of funds disbursed as benefits to older members of the society in Marakwet West District. I wish to table the list of the beneficiaries of the funds from Marakwet West District. view
• 2 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: (b) Some beneficiaries previously benefiting from the programme were omitted after it was noted that they did not meet some of the laid down criteria. The legibility criteria is that an older person must be aged 65 years and above. Other criteria used are:- (i) the household must have a 65 year old and above; (ii) must be extremely poor; (iii) the older person must not be enrolled in any other cash transfer programme; (iv) the older person must not be receiving any pension. The ranking criteria also have other considerations, that is: 1. the number of orphans and vulnerable ... view
• 2 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think I actually said that chiefs are involved in the mobilization through barazas ; members of the community attend meetings and then the targeting is done. I just want to point out that the hon. Member is in agreement that the list is correct, and it has the 750 members. They are the ones who are deserving. I know that it is very frustrating, and, maybe, more than the 750 people deserve to be given the money. The money is not enough and we cannot cover everybody. I know the hon. Member has been to ... view
• 2 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I mentioned that only 44 districts are covered. Just to mention a few, for example in Nyanza Province we have Migori, Gucha, Suba, Homa Bay, Kisii Central, Bondo, Nyando, Kisumu West, Kuria and Siaya districts. The amount we have is only Kshs530 million, and it cannot cover the whole country. I just want to mention that the number of elders who are supposed to be covered are 606,065 males and 992,573 females, giving a total of 1,198,638. The number we have covered is only 33,000, which is far much below the almost 2 million. view
• 2 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first of all, the most important thing is to make sure that all people are paid. That is what I will do. I will make sure that they are paid. After that, we will make arrangements to visit them. view
• 17 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Asante sana, Mhe. Spika. Yangu ni kutaja kwamba wale ambao ni wanyonge, haswa wale ambao wako katika maeneo ambapo hakuna watu wengi--- view
• 10 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Asante sana, Bw. Naibu Spika wa Muda, kwa kunipatia nafasi hii, na pia kuruhusu swala hili lizungumziwe kwa kirefu. Jambo la kusikitisha hapa nchini ni kuwa haswa wale ambao ni wanyonge ndio wanazidi kunyongolewa mbali. Ni makosa sana kwa Wakenya ambao ni wadogo kwa idadi ama sio wengi katika Serikali kuonewa namna hii. Si bwana huyu tu ambaye ameharibiwa maisha yake kwa sababu ukitaka kumumaliza mtu, mnyime mbegu zake za kupata watoto na pia maisha yake na utakuwa umemmaliza yeye na vizazi vyake vyote. Bw. Naibu Spika wa Muda, ni jambo ya kusikitisha na huzuni sana kuwa miaka 47 baada ... view
• 16 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Naibu Spika wa Muda, nilikuwa nikitaka kuwaeleza kwamba Naibu wa Waziri hakuwa na jibu. Ametoka nje kupiga simu kuuliza kama kuna jibu ambalo limeletwa upande huu. Kwa hivyo, naomba tu umpatie muda kidogo. view
