  • 18 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I am okay with two weeks. view
  • 30 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also stand to support this Motion. It is a noble idea. I observed that most parents tend to think that they are not supposed to do anything for the kid now that we have Free Primary Education (FPE). Also a lot of pupils have dropped out of school. Like my colleague has said if the Government increases this money, then it needs to be specified which items of education are going to be catered for. Previously, parents would get involved in building infrastructure for schools. Unless the CDF comes in, it is not ... view

  • 30 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: For example, there is Kakamega Primary School in Lurambi Constituency, which I represent, which is well built. Pupils at that school perform better than the pupils of Ichina Primary School, in the neighbourhood, which to-date has mud-walled classrooms. So, as we talk about increasing the capitation per child for the free primary education, we also have look into such matters. view

  • 30 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Another area we need to look into is that of interlinking the free primary education to secondary school education. As a colleague said, a pupil can do very well in primary education but if he does not have support for secondary school education, transiting to higher levels of education may not be possible. We are increasing the capitation from Kshs1,020 to Kshs3,060 but still this might not be enough. I would think of this as the beginning. We should be able to increase this amount progressively to a higher figure that can assist in improving the quality of primary education. view

  • 10 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also have some few sentiments about the Motion. I thank the Mover for giving us this chance to talk about security in Kenya. Just as he has said, insecurity is not only in Samburu where he comes from. In Lurambi Constituency which I represent, we lost six people who were shot in various situations just in one week. This is because we do not have security. We have what we call “ nyumba kumi ” programme in the newspapers. view
