• 2 Feb 2017 in National Assembly: The other thing I need to point out is the issue of the village polytechnics where we think the money which is being allocated, should be distributed equally until we have all the village polytechnics getting to a certain level in terms of infrastructure and equipment. From there onwards, it can be looked at from the point of which ones should be expanded to be bigger than others depending on the population. The other thing that I need to point out is the leasing of medical equipment. Kenya is a signatory to maternal and child health issues at the United ... view
• 2 Feb 2017 in National Assembly: I do not know whether everybody appreciates that the buck stops with the President when it comes to the health of Kenyans. Yes, we are devolved but it is the Government of Kenya which is a signatory to most of these agreements where health must be provided to Kenyans. The other thing that I needed to talk about is, as revenue is being collected at the county level, most of the county governments are not able to collect their funds. Even when they collect their funds, they are not accounted for properly. This is because of the laws not being ... view
• 2 Feb 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I do believe that as we are auditing the funds at the county level, people should have auditors going to check whether those projects have been implemented. People will be shocked that most of the projects which are on paper are not there on the ground. We need to have mechanisms for making sure that money is properly accounted for. view
• 2 Feb 2017 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I wish to thank my colleagues. I support. view
• 31 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to say something about the drought that we are facing in this country. I want to thank Hon. Ochieng for bringing it up so that we can discuss and give our suggestions. It is not good enough for us that when we have a problem we rush in with emergency measures and soon after the emergency measures have been put in place, we go back and wait for another problem to come up. It is high time the Government looks at it in terms of having short and long-term measures ... view
• 31 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I look forward to a situation where water is not going to be wasted, so that we do not keep crying day in, day out about our problems. view

• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to start by thanking all my colleagues for the contributions they have made towards the Public Private Partnerships (Amendment) Bill, 2016 (National Assembly Bill No. 25 of 2016). It is important for us to thank the Cabinet Secretary (CS) for thinking it is very important for county governments to be involved in these PPPs. I just want to point out that this should not be the highway for county governments to think that this is the gravy train because of these partnerships. There is no way you would realise full devolution if ... view
• 20 Dec 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to second the Motion. It is important for us to consider that we need more time to be here to make sure that we follow the new budget calendar which has been set so that we can meet the budgetary obligations of the coming financial year, before we break off and go home for the coming elections. Hon. Speaker, it is important for all of us to agree that the Constitution has set the election date for the second week of August. We all should agree that we need to go home for a ... view
