• 19 Apr 2023 in National Assembly: people, both male and female, are participating in this business, and are able to bring up their families and pay school fees using their earnings from the bodaboda business. I would like to support that there is need for registration. If possible, the registration should be attached to the rider and his or her motorbike. This will ensure that people at the county and national levels, including the offices of the chiefs and the assistant chiefs, are able to tell where a bodaboda is operating. This will help to trace them and show where they started their journey, the places ... view
• 13 Apr 2023 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me an opportunity to put my word on this very emotional matter that you have brought to the attention of this House. First of all, the seat that Hon. Sabina Chege occupies today is a negotiated position for effort. We know effort cannot be erased through writing of a letter. When you retire to make your ruling, I want you to recall that your transgressors have come to haunt the House that you lead. At some point, after making your ruling, you may want to audit the number of committee positions that were given ... view
• 13 Apr 2023 in National Assembly: It is going to be messy and noisy. Hon. Speaker, make sure you make it noisy and messy. Thank you. view
• 16 Mar 2023 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I would like to support the two petitions. On the one that has been raised by Hon. Mary Wamaua, many of our citizens have found themselves in a situation where they were pushed out by colonialists. This is where somebody who may have been within the system or Government at that time was allocated land, and then they are forced to pay. This matter touches on many other areas. Therefore, I would like to encourage Hon. Mbai, with his Public Petitions Committee, to fast-track it and also encourage the Departmental ... view
• 16 Mar 2023 in National Assembly: huge dams in every constituency. This name, ‘Matinga,’ seems to be the name that was given to almost all those big dams in our constituencies. I would like to request the Committee that, as they deal with this matter which has been raised by Hon. Nyenze, which is going to bring some sustainability in acquisition of water in her area, it also considers other dams that may be of the same magnitude that are within the eight constituencies in Kitui. So, I would like to congratulate Hon. Nyenze and request the Committee to think of the other eight dams with ... view
• 1 Mar 2023 in National Assembly: Asante sana, Mhe. Spika wa Muda kwa kunipatia fursa hii niweze kuchangia Hoja hii ambayo imeletwa na Mhe. Thuddeus Nzambia, Mbunge wa Kilome. Nataka kumshukuru sana kwa sababu amekuwa akileta mijadala ambayo inasaidia wananchi. Pia amekuwa akifanyia watu wa Kilome kazi nzuri sana. Mimi kama Mbunge wa Kitui Kusini, jambo hili la kuendelea kuandikisha watu ambao wamefikisha miaka 70 ni jambo muhimu sana kwa wananchi wa kwangu wa kaunti ndogo za Ikutha na Mutomo. Mara ya mwisho watu walisajiliwa ilikuwa ni mwaka wa 2016 wakati tulikuwa tunakaribia uchaguzi. Wale ambao walikuwa miaka 69 wakati huo, saa hii wamepitisha miaka 77. ... view
• 1 Mar 2023 in National Assembly: kukusaidia kuongeza maisha yako. Wale ambao wanawachunga wazee waendelee hivyo ili waendelee kukaa katika familia zao na kuwaletea hizo pesa kila mwezi. Ninapomshukuru Mhe. Nzambia kwa kazi nzuri, nakushukuru nawe kwa kunipatia nafasi hii. view
• 22 Feb 2023 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I support this Petition, which seeks to have the Water Act amended so that it focuses on the counties. There is a severe drought in the country, and more so in the areas where some of us come from – the lower Eastern part of the country that comprise Kitui, Machakos and Makueni counties. People walk long distances searching for water because of the severe drought. So, I would like to encourage the Public Petitions Committee to give a hand on this Petition and support it so that the engineer who has brought it to ... view

• 22 Feb 2023 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, you look elegant in that seat. I cannot sit before I acknowledge that fact. Thank you for wearing that fabulous African dress. You look so good as you preside over this House. Thank you also for supporting the Kenya Women Parliamentarian Association’s (KEWOPA) theme of supporting our local designers and fundis so that they can put food on their tables. Thank you very much, Hon. Deputy Speaker. view
