23 Jul 2014 in National Assembly:
Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I wish to join my colleagues who have spoken before me in congratulating hon. Ottichilo for this well thought out Bill on climate change. It is a fact that climate change is here with us. As much as sometimes we bury our heads in the sand and pretend that it is not here, the reality speaks for itself. Nowadays, we experience long spells of droughts at times when we least expect them. Our country and our continent have ASAL areas but nowadays, it is like there is an extension of the ASAL areas. Kenyans ...

23 Jul 2014 in National Assembly:
Government to organise people in terms of rain-fed agriculture. The Government has to revert to irrigation and make sure that so much funding is diverted towards that direction, so that we can ensure that our people are food secure. It is in public knowledge that even the Head of State of Maldives had asked his Cabinet to go and have a Cabinet meeting under water, so that they could discuss the issue of climate change and appreciate them as they came up with solutions and a way forward for their country. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the proposed Council will bring ...

Ahsante sana, Mheshimiwa Naibu Spika wa Muda, kwa kunipa nafasi hii ya kumuunga mkono kiongozi wetu wa waliowengi hapa Bungeni. Wakati umefika wa sisi kuelekea kwenye likizo kwa muda huu wa siku kumi ambazo tunahitaji kurudi kwa wale ambao walitupatia jukumu hili la kuja hapa ili tuweze kuwazungumzia na kuwapatia masaa yetu haswa kwa maswala yale ambayo tumekuwa tukiwatumikia.

Naibu Spika wa Muda na hata sasa hivi, tunafahamu ya kwamba pesa za hazina ya maendeleo kule mashinani na haswa kwenye maeneo Bunge, zimetoka. Orodha yenyewe imetoka leo na wakati ...

Ahsante sana, Naibu Spika wa Muda. Nikiendelea kuunga mkono, ningependekeza ya kwamba wiki hii inayokuja ni wiki ambayo tunatakikana kukumbuka kule tulipotoka na kule tunakoelekea, haswa kwenye maswala ya kikatiba na shughuli zile ambazo tumepatiwa kwenye Bunge hili la kifahari, Bunge la Kumi na Moja, ili tuweze kuenda kuhamasisha wananchi wote katika hali ya upendo. Ndugu zangu, sio rahisi pale tulipotoka. Tuliponea tundu la sindano. Hatuwezi kuwa tutajirudisha pale tulipotoka mwaka wa 2008. Ilikuwa ni muda mgumu sana kwa nchi hii na kuna umuhimu wa sisi kuzungumzia amani. Ahsante sana, Naibu Spika wa Muda, kwa kunipa fursa hii ya kuunga ...

Thank you, hon. Speaker. I rise to second the amendments of the health Report. For the Departmental Committee on Health to have come up with this Report, it had to visit the counties and appreciate what is happening there.

2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly:
I wish to draw the attention of my colleagues to Articles 95 and 96 of the Constitution. Article 95 is very specific. It talks about representation of the people by the Members of the National Assembly. The Senate represents counties.

2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly:
Diseases attack human beings; they do attack our people. Whereas the Senate is responsible for taking care of the counties, we have the primary responsibility of making sure that health facilities and services are delivered to our people. If you look at Article 15 of Schedule Six of the Constitution on the provision for devolution of functions to be undertaken under an Act of Parliament, you will find that it is very clear that the legislation that is referred to must provide for the way in which the national Government shall facilitate the devolution of power, assist county governments in ...

Hon. Speaker, the criteria was established in a hurry and the costing of our health services was not done. This was done in a hurry. This is what the medical people would refer to as “a dumping syndrome”. A dumping syndrome will not solve our health problems.
