Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I stand here to share the pain with the people of Mwingi and the St. Gabriel fraternity for the loss of the innocent souls. On my behalf and the people of Kitui East, I join my brothers in Mwingi Central in condoling the families. It has been said that it is an accident. Accidents can be prevented. Administrative measures have been taken to prevent accidents. They include painting school buses yellow and imposing a night travel ban for school children. One of the issues I would advise school administration and the Ministry of Education, ...

prevented. Administrative measures have been taken to prevent accidents. They include painting school buses yellow and imposing a night travel ban for school children. One of the issues I would advise school administration and the Ministry of Education, Science and Technlogy to look into is the qualification of the drivers being employed by schools. An adult can judge the capacity and the capability of a driver and alight from a vehicle which is being driven dangerously, but a young child has no capacity to do that. Therefore, proficiency test for drivers being employed to drive school buses should be of ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I stand to support the amendment. Having in mind the position the President has taken in the fight against corruption, this is an opportunity we need to seize in all sectors, including the EACC to investigate this matter. It is a technical matter in terms of investigations. It is always good to have two eyes on a situation. The Directorate of Criminal Investigation has the capacity, but we need a second eye on this matter. On matters policing, it is always advisable to police the police. So, having both the EACC and the DCI ...

In future, we need to have the three bodies. We have the Departmental Committee on Lands investigating the matter and now we have the DCI working on it. We should invite the EACC to work on it. In future the three bodies should tackle corruption matters. The concerned Committee of this House should be the first one to work on the matter, then the DCI and the EACC. It should not only be on the matter on the Table today, but any other matter in the future to see the light in most of the corruption cases in the country.

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Petition because of the destructions caused by floods especially in Tana River, where there was serious destruction of personal and public property. In allocating resources for this, we need to look at how to compensate households and families and rebuild some of the public institutions such as schools and hospitals.

Garsen boarders Tana River and Kitui East. Actually, the border between Garsen Constituency and Kitui East is Tana River. In expanding and including more areas to be compensated, the bigger Kitui East, especially Endau, Malalane,Voo locations and Kitui County as a whole, should not be left out. Lastly, is about the budget allocation. The House, through the Leader of the Majority Party and the Speaker, needs to allocate enough resources for this activity.

President was very categorical that he appreciates Kenyans because they have come to appreciate the fact that young people can lead our nation. We feel honoured by the fact that the President can appreciate that vis a vis some of our fathers in the other parties who are instead working on smothering the young guys away from occupying leadership positions. I would like to applaud the President for that---We should be ready to serve. (Technical hitch) It is very unfortunate. Lastly is to appreciate the fact that Kenya is peaceful, we have a standing Government, both the three arms of ...
