• 9 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: I note that the Parliament of Kenya is 114 years old since its inception during the colonial time. Many people have served in this House. Therefore, the history of the institution of Parliament needs to be documented. I thank the Leader of the Majority Party because he is focusing on the National Assembly.

• 9 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: so that young people can appreciate where we come from. It was not this beautiful; it was not beautifully marked. We did not have the red seats that we sit on today. We need to document that the beautiful seats we have here were not imported, they were manufactured by an institution of this country.

• 9 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: I have seen that the Parliament of UK has recorded how it evolved from the early days up to now. I believe we have had wonderful Speakers, starting with our own Speakers, Hon. J.B. Mururi and Hon. Marende. I was not here but I recall what I used to watch him do in this House.

It is important to showcase what goes on in the Committees and what the Members say although they can get it on the Hansard. I believe when we come up with the nine-Member Committee that is being discussed this evening, it will also indicate what goes on in Committees. The Committee will highlight how the legislation process takes place, laying emphasis on enactment of Bills into laws through ... view

• 8 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity. First of all, I would like to thank the Chair because he has made a presentation on a matter that was raised by Hon. Serem. He was honest with this House that we have arrears which must be released. Also, the Kshs4.9 billion for the current Financial Year has to be in the Supplementary Budget, so that we can complete the projects that we had promised our constituents. Hon. Speaker, we oversee Ministries and other State Agencies. We see their funds being disbursed within the correct timelines. The biggest question is ... view
