• 20 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: want to look at a whole national integrated metropolis development where the entire metropolis in this country is taken into account. view
• 20 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: The other thing that I would like us to focus on is the constitutionality of that matter. I know the Speaker has ruled on that. The Inter-governmental Authority Act should guide metropolis development where you put counties into blocks. This Bill has put several counties into blocks. This means that you want to run away from the Inter-governmental Relations Act which gives governors an opportunity to sit down to handle problems that affect them. I wish that the Inter-governmental Authority Act and the Inter-governmental Council which is in place can sit down and look at this. They should also look ... view
• 20 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: I also want to look at how much resources would be put into this Authority, apart from the resources that the county governments have. This is a multi-billion authority which will be put in place. Nairobi County will now gobble up the Budget that is available and deny other counties. Fair treatment of every county should be the principal that guides how this Bill will move forward. view
• 20 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: There is also another thing which I would like to add on the coastal city. It can contribute a bigger GDP of this country, especially in the tourism sector. Right now, you realise that many tourists do not land in Mombasa or Kenya because of the transport system. We need to unclog the transport system at the coastal cities so that we can grow the economy through the tourism sector. Nowadays, tourists fly to Zanzibar, South Africa and other areas because the transport system in Mombasa. It is clogged. Therefore, it does not give an opportunity for the growth of ... view
• 20 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: I would like to add one point on the fact that every development and civilisation in the world came through coastal cities. If you look at many cities like Alexandria and what is happening, civilisation come through coastal cities or port cities. If we do very well in the transport system within the port areas, then it is easier to grow the GDP in the hinterland. Therefore, because this Bill may go through, it is my wish and prayer that Mombasa metropolitan area transport system is included to ensure that the two areas complement each other in business and transport ... view

• 14 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Ahsante sana Mhe. Naibu Spika wa Muda kwa kunipatia nafasi hii. Nimesimama kuunga mkono Hoja ambayo imeletwa na ndugu yangu Ali ambaye anatoka eneo la Pwani. Hospitali ya rufaa ya kiwango cha sita huko Pwani imechelewa kufika. Mimi ningependa kuongea kwasababu hospitali hii ya Mombasa iwekwe kama hospitali ya rufaa. Kwanza, kuna magonjwa mengi hapa duniani ambayo huathiri watu wanaoishi Pwani. Ni magonjwa ambayo hayawezi kufanyiwa utafiti katika maeneo mengine. Matibabu yake yanafanyika vizuri yakifanyiwa pale Pwani. Saa hii pale Mombasa, kuna ugonjwa wa Chikungunya, ambao unaathiri wapwani peke yao. Kuna magonjwa mengine kama vile tende guu ambayo yako katika ... view
• 14 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Kikuu Cha Teknolojia cha Mombasa. Hivyo vyuo vimeshindwa kutoa mafunzo ya matibabu kwa sababu hakuna hospitali ya rufaa na mafunzo. Kama tunataka kuvikuza vyuo hivyo ili viwe taasisi za elimu zinazoheshimika, ni lazima tuhakikishe kwamba mafunzo ya udaktari hayapatikani Nairobi peke yake, bali yanapatikana katika vyuo hivyo pia. Kwa hivyo, tuna wajibu wa kuhakikisha kwa haraka sana kwamba hospitali ya Mombasa imefanywa hospitali ya rufaa na mafunzo kama hospitali za Edoret na Kenyatta. Ni matumaini yangu makubwa kwamba Hoja hii itatiliwa maanani na Serikali. Kabla sijasahau, miongoni mwa maono manne makubwa ambayo Rais Uhuru Kenyatta ametangaza ni matibabu bora kwa ... view
• 14 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I support this Motion moved by the Leader of the Minority Party. When on that Friday I saw the guy called “my president” calling the other one his President, I said: Who am I not to call the other guy my President? I think this country has moved on. One of the things that are important to note is that I come from a very politically-sensitive region, which hosts the bulk of the tourism sector of this country. The events of that Friday have already started to change the ... view
