• 7 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: Fish is a very nutritious source of food especially for the young kids who are growing. We also know it as a staple food in Kenya. We can run out of maize, beans and other food stuff due to poor rains but running out of fish is not easy because we have plenty of it in our lakes and ocean. So, this area can address food shortage in the country. We are experiencing decreased production of meat from cattle, sheep and goats. The pastoralist communities like Maasai, Somali and to some extent Kamba have experience decreased production of meat products. ... view

• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for the opportunity to add my voice to the Motion by Hon. Osoro. We all reside in this country and know the rate of deaths and maiming caused by road accidents. This calls for some serious action. We can tell the disparity between the rates of accidents in Kenya and other countries such as our neighbours in Tanzania and other countries with more vehicles and worse roads than us. This tells us that there is a social problem we need to fix. As the Motion proposes the introduction of training in road safety and ... view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: think we will be in a position to reduce the number of accidents on our roads and all the challenges we are seeing. We have seen people lose their lives within a twinkle of a second just out of a small driving or pedestrian mistake. We have challenges being faced by drivers and other road users. Somebody doing things in the wrong way by trying to cross the road calls a person across the road or helping kids to cross the road. All these people will need to be trained on the curriculum. For those out there who cannot be ... view
• 4 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to contribute. First of all, allow me to wish our Muslim brothers EidMubarak for the great day before them. I stand here to support the Bill because we need to enhance devolution. It is an ongoing process.

• 4 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: I have experience of working in a county government and some of the challenges posed by the absence of this office should have been corrected two years ago. County governments have challenges in drafting Bills. You run a department which they refer to as a ministry and you want to draft a Bill for enactment by the county assembly, but a member of CEC, who is not a professional in legal matters has nowhere to run to to get this legal support. This office will support county government departments in coming up with legislations for enacting. view
• 4 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Secondly, county governments spend a lot of money on legal fees. They are sued and they sue people and institutions. The opportunity to hire lawyers has been abused because of corruption. It is also eating heavily in the county governments’ budgets. The Office of the County Attorney should also bring on board a legal office that will take care of legal matters for the representation of county governments where they are suing or have been sued. This will bring down the budget for representation of county governments in legal matters in courts. view
• 4 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: The other very important thing which has been mentioned is the qualification of the county attorney. The youths are left out in most of these positions. Hon. Millie said that she view
