• 30 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: In some counties there are people who are about 60 years old but they do not have identity cards. This is because they have to walk for about 200 kilometres to the registration centres. That is why the Motion by Hon. Wamalwa essentially called for decentralization of the process of registration of persons and establishment of mobile registration centres so that people can be accessed. Some areas do not have sufficient transport facilities that people can use to get to the registration centres. With those few remarks, I beg to support. view
• 17 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I stand to support this Motion. For record purposes, I sit in the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security which vetted this candidate. Listening to the candidate and looking at his credentials, this nominee is suitable for this job. He has a Degree in Agriculture and he has worked in most agricultural institutions. First, most prisons have huge chunks of land that can be utilised for agriculture to feed the prisoners and sell the surplus to other Kenyans. I am saying this because we have visited some prisons and what we found is ... view
• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to thank the President for his speech. I want to address three to four issues that are contained in this speech. The first one is about corruption. I want to thank the President for the commendable job that he has done to expose those who are corrupting this Government. For a long time, Kenyans have been longing for somebody who can boldly expose those who are corrupting the resources and the money that Kenyans are supposed to benefit from. A lot of money is being wasted in corruption. It is ... view
• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: used to pay teachers. Every term, there is teacher‟s strike because they are demanding an increase in payments. They need hardship allowance and other allowances. The Government cannot afford to pay the teachers while there is a lot of money that is lost in terms of corruption in this country. If that money was to be used in a proper way, we could recruit more policemen to fight insecurity in this country. If the officers who are involved in corruption are arraigned in court and told to pay the money, it can be used to do a lot of development ... view
• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: The third point is about the road network. It has been mentioned in this Speech that there is expansion through the annuity programme, or model, but I am not seeing anything happening in some areas even in the old roads like Kitale-Lodwar Road. This road has been sung about for many years and nobody is doing anything about it. Thank you. view
• 13 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. Pursuant to Standing Order No.44(2)(c), I wish to request a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Labour and Social Welfare regarding delays in effecting of cash transfers to orphans and vulnerable children, older persons and the persons with severe disabilities. view

• 23 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. After listening to the Chairperson and the response she has given to this Statement request, I wish to seek a clarification on criterion No.4 which talks about the availability of funding for this particular programme. I wish to be told what the Government is doing to ensure that areas that are prone to drought are catered for in this programme. This is because in my constituency over 30,000 people have actually moved to Uganda in search of pasture and water and their children are not catered for in terms of education, because they cannot fit ... view

• 17 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I want to take this opportunity to thank and appreciate the Chairman for presenting this report in this House although it has taken more than six months since it was asked. Some of the responses have been overtaken by events, but I want to seek a few clarifications from him. Response to part “(c)” talks about how long the distribution will take. It is indicated in the report that the distribution for Turkana County was done in January and March 2014. The response says that two more months were required. When is the next review of the situation? ... view
