• 19 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, amendments and further amendments are allowed. However, my amendment was on the roles and I still beg this House not to allow a grey area in terms of the roles. The moment there is going to be a grey area on the roles, that is when what hon. Cecily Mbarire has said will happen. We will lose the gains when we go to the ground. Forget about here where we are talking at the tea place. When we go to the ground my role and your role as Member of Parliament and mine as a CWR ... view
• 19 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, my last point is that I have an amendment on Regulation 15. There are other amendments on Regulation 15, mine is not the only amendment. I am a Member who has been in this House for a long time. If the mood of the House were to suggest that County Women Representatives will still carry the role of appointment, I will be the last person to refuse. Therefore, let us go step by step as it is with the order of business. Let us get to Regulation No.15 where the Chair of the Committee--- As we ... view
• 19 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I withdraw my amendment since my earlier amendment, which was connected to it, has been defeated. view
• 13 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Yes, hon. Deputy Speaker. I have listened to the Leader of Majority Party give an answer that is a bit puzzling. I think the issues that had been asked by the Member for Kieni were in the public domain. It, therefore, means that there is speculation through the media or other means or the Government simply does not want to tell the truth. Those Members of Parliament from Nairobi know that there are planned and organized demonstrations against the President and the Deputy President in relation to the ICC. What I want to ask the Leader of Majority Party is ... view
• 13 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will take two minutes. I want to convey my condolences to the Member for Nyakach and also the Member for Kisumu Town West for their loss. I will go straight to what you said. It is like you read my mind. We are now debating the National Service Commission Bill and the Police Service Bill is also on its way. I just want to ask this House: Why do we fear to say the truth? It is obvious there is a go-slow. If you look at our security systems and The electronic version of ... view
• 13 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: what happened at the Westgate Mall, our police heads are not working in tandem. There is definitely a power game going on up to the grassroots level. view
• 13 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: If you look at Nairobi where the Chair also comes from, you know that today, you have OCPDs and OCSs who have no power and even if they have power, they are not willing to exercise it because they are not motivated enough; neither are their police officers. The legislative agenda that we are talking about is on the Floor of this House. Yesterday, it was unfortunate that very few Members were sitting here as we were debating the National Police Service Commission Bill and the National Service Police Bill that will be coming. I am, therefore, suggesting that we ... view
• 13 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Therefore, it is not about Nyanza Province or Baragoi where there are issues, but about the security of the people of this country. It is an issue of whether we, as legislators, are ready to bite the bullet and decide that the police reforms, including the vetting that was supposed to happen, should happen now before we lose more lives. That is my recommendation. view
