  • 18 Sep 2013 in National Assembly: This Bill is timely because it will help to bring order in our institutions. I remember that as I was growing up, one day my father came home and said that he had invested some money in an institution in Nairobi, which I will not mention. He lost that money. The matter was dear to him because when he came home, he was very sad. So, it is important that we encourage our fellow citizens to invest because we are going to have our financial institutions operating in an orderly manner. This Bill will also enable our financial institutions to ... view
  • 18 Sep 2013 in National Assembly: With those very few remarks, I beg to support. view
  • 31 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity so that I can also give my views. First of all, I rise to support this Motion as proposed by hon. Njenga. The issue of the youth in this country has been left for a long time. Indeed, we need these polytechnics like yesterday. Village polytechnics are very important to enhance skills for our people. In the entire Narok County, we only have two polytechnics which have nothing that you can be proud of. I am saying this because recently, we went round checking how we can help ... view
  • 24 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I rise to oppose the amendment and the reason has already been pointed out by my colleagues, that this is county government work. We should not form many commissions because we already have a problem with the wage bill in this country. I am a Member of the Budget and Appropriations Committee. We are trying to reduce the number of commissions that we have in this view
  • 24 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I also rise to support the appointment of the two nominees. I do not want to talk a lot about other things, but I just want to say that two nominees fit the Bill. I think other hon. Members have talked a lot about them and I just want to say that they are well educated and they should be given the opportunity to serve this country. I also want to mention that they are very experienced. When I went through the report, I found that those ladies are ... view
  • 24 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for protecting me. This Motion is very important and the rest of Kenyans are watching and we should not take it for granted. I just want to say that as we continue to reform our Commission, we should not lose as a country. Our children are looking after us and we should put people who are experienced to take care of their business. Otherwise, I support and I also want to congratulate my friend who has just spoken about one of the ladies. I just want to tell him that the Jubilee Government will ... view
  • 4 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Motion. The reason as to why I support the Motion--- view
  • 4 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: I am most obliged, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I want to take this opportunity to, first of all, congratulate my good friend, hon. Kajuju, for bringing this Motion to the House. In my understanding, the proposed ad hoc committee will be looking into the matter because miraa has not been understood by many people. I remember that when we were interviewing one of our Principal Secretaries nominee, who is a doctor, he was asked whether miraa was one of the harmful drugs, to which he answered that it was a leaf which needed to be studied. This means that ... view
  • 19 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, thank you for giving me this opportunity. Let me say from the outset that I support this Motion. I want to thank hon. K.K. Kinyanjui for bringing this Motion at this time. We all know the history of this country, particularly when it comes to the roads network. During the old days, a road could only be tarmacked or murramed, if you were close to the “powers that be”. This Motion will bring equity to this country. I think where we are as a country, we need to have equity in the road network. In the ... view
  • 19 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to also contribute to this very important Motion. First of all, I would like to thank my good friend, hon. Dukicha, for bringing this Motion. I realise that you probably have come to this House because of boarding school, like myself. I want to say that the boarding schools for girls is something that this country must take note of, because most of us who grew up in those ASAL areas in Maasai Mara went to boarding schools. Really without going to a boarding school, I probably would ... view
