• 27 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Motion. From the outset, I want to say that this Motion is long overdue. If I was to be asked, what is more important for schools between power and water, I would prefer water. This is because water is more important than power. Maybe some Members might not have as much problems as those of us who come from arid and semi-arid areas. I recommend that water is taken not just to primary schools, but to all schools with no water, both secondary and primary. In the semi-arid areas ... view
• 27 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: there is anything we can do urgently the way we did with electrification of schools, let us provide water to primary and secondary schools. I thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 16 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I stand to support this Motion because it is long overdue. Since we now have county governments, this should be done at the county level. I will go as far as to suggest that when children complete high school, the ID card should be part of the certificates that they collect from schools to identify themselves. We should have our passports processed at the counties. view
• 15 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I support the amendment based on the justification that has been given by the Committee Chair, that the words “artistic works” do not feature anywhere in the Bill. view
• 15 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: I support the amendment based on the justification that has been given by the Committee Chair that the words “artistic works” do not feature in the Bill. So, that means that they should be deleted. view
• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, hon. Deputy Speaker. I would like to appreciate the Speech given by the President. I have been here long enough but we have not had a President pronounce the things which our Presidentof today pronounced especially on corruption. In Kenya, we have three cancers. Cancer number one which was also mentioned by the President is corruption. Two, is ethnicity and three, is security. The two last ones, ethnicity and security, are governed by corruption. We have agreed that it is good at least the President started doing something on corruption because we have not heard it ... view
• 26 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. In one minute, I do not know what I am going to say. I want to support this Bill. I have been a former Member of Parliament. I have won four elections and lost three. So, I have been in and out and I can tell you that it is very rough. So, this Bill is very timely. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 26 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: I want to tell, especially the first timers, the moment you lose elections a lot of people will be anti you. Some want to bring you down. Some even offer you soda because you cannot afford a bottle of soda. So, we had better prepare ourselves. We have to prepare ourselves because a lot of people are envious of the position that we hold. The other thing that I want to point out is the issue of insurance and medical cover. It should be put in the Bill that we should contribute towards this. We will not be allowed to ... view
• 11 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, hon. Speaker, Sir. You will excuse me because I just felt shy to come and ask you to allow me to pay tribute to the late hon. Chelagat. We were Members of Parliament together with this lady. She was 24 years old and I was equally young but I was in my 30s. This was the second crop of view
