• 24 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. From the onset, I want to commend Hon. Dawood. One would think that he is a medical doctor. That means that he has put a lot of research into this issue. The health sector in this country is wanting. Devolution of the health sector has done more harm than good to Kenyans because personally, I have visited many hospitals. When you go to Kajiado, Machakos, Kangundo and Kathiani to just mention a few, Kenyans are suffering because of lack of the basic needs and facilities in these hospitals. In this Motion, as a colleague ... view
• 24 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: into the health sector otherwise a nation without a healthy population is not a nation that is ready to attain any heights of development. This is a good Motion. I hope as we debate we are going to bring in amendments that will look at how the national Government can come with interventions and mostly training of staff. From the time health facilities were devolved, we have seen doctors leaving to seek greener pastures not only because of the salaries but because of the structures that are put in place in the counties. Recently, I heard one of the governors ... view
• 17 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker.

• 17 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: I want to be categorical and state that when we went through documents none of the claimants of that piece of land was sure of their documents. When you go back to the statements and confessions by Da Gama Rose, having been a director of Barclays Bank, clearly, there was a conflict of interest in him buying the piece of land. After he left, other players came to claim the same piece of land. Even as a Committee, after going through the documents and visiting the site, issues arose. I can confirm to this House that the Ministry of Lands, ... view

• 30 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, in view of the effects of alcohol in this country, I stand to support this Motion. It could not have come at a better time than now, when Kenyan youths are involved in alcoholism. We also saw the President appoint a young man to the National Authority for Campaign Against Alcohol and Drug Abuse (NACADA). I am sure the Alcoholic Drinks Control (Amendment) Bill and these amendments brought by Hon. Ichung’wah are going to help this country fight alcoholism. view

• 30 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I outrightly oppose this amendment. view
• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am just concerned. This debate is creating a lot of interest. It has created anxiety amongst hon. Members. Would I be in order to request that we are given three minutes to contribute to the debate? view
