• 8 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I think this can be cited as a landmark ruling which upholds the constitutionalism of this country. That this House, other than the Senate, would like to abide by what the Constitution and other jurisdictions say. I sincerely thank you for coming out boldly with a well informed and researched ruling. view

• 8 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. You know Hon. Chepkut has a new profession. He is a rising star in the social media. He always writes very nice tweets. I read them and I think he is a rising star. So, that is another hat he is wearing. That notwithstanding, I would like to support this Bill and say that I proudly sat in this Committee as a member and I think we did a good job. This Bill has come at the right time to regulate this sector which is developing very fast, especially sectional properties. Presently, there are ... view

• 8 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: feet or 300 square feet. So, they are given what they never paid for. This Bill is coming at the right time. From an economics point of view, when we liberate this sector and we actually give out titles to the sectional properties or apartments, we will actually be developing the economy further because there will be the power to borrow and invest more. If I have a property and a title deed, I will be able to walk into a bank and get a loan. I will be in a position to invest more within the same economy. That ... view

• 8 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: service charge that comes on every month is so high that you wish you do not own it because you cannot afford it.
