Sankok, which Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, you also echoed. This is an idea whose time has come. I urge Hon. Sankok to immediately initiate what will otherwise be known as the Sankok Initiative by starting an online Petition to gather close to 50 million signatures, if it were possible, including those of our children, to expand his constituency from the 6.5 million to the entire Kenya.

A closer look of the Bill reveals three major things that come out of it. The Leader of the Majority Party, who is the Mover of the Bill, needs to really look at these things. The wording is important. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, you are a lawyer. You understand this: they say that “the Authority will be charged with looking at all levels of irrigation” and then somewhere in the small print, I think in sub-section (j), they say “the Authority will be in charge of licensing”.

In his own words, his agitation began in the wings of his mother, as he was born in April 1964, four months after our nation attained independence. He was faced with challenges of poverty, ignorance and disease. Hon.

He was always ready to serve. He was brave and stood for constitutional ideals, advocated for a stronger Kenya and for the prosperity for generations to come. He was, indeed, ...

my colleague, Hon. Ole Kenta and the Committee, for such a robust Report. Noteworthy is the fact that Parliament is literally at the verge of being taken for granted. As Parliament, we are anchored in the Constitution of Kenya, 2010; and the functions bestowed upon the Executive in terms of implementing legislations, Petitions and Motions from this House is not a request. One cannot hide under technicalities. I will draw upon the function of His Excellency the President on part (c) of Article 132 of the Constitution, which requires the President to bring forth reports on the implementation of national ...
