• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Secretaries, Principal Secretary and others. They always tell us that the Motions mention Government and they ask who the Government is. I believe there is a Cabinet Secretary or somebody else who is supposed to take responsibility. Even framing of who is supposed to be responsible is a problem. So, it is upon us as a House to put everything in a way that will lead to implementation. view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: We have also had the issue of budgetary implications. We say that we pass a Motion, but when it goes to implementing agencies, they are unable to do so because they do not have a budget. In fact, most of the time they come and say that they are willing to do it, but there is no money. We should also be very careful about what we pass so that we do not act in vain. When the public out there listen to us and hear us saying this and that will be done at a particular place or will ... view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: I urge Members that because there are hundreds of Motions that are pending, to please approach the Committee and let us know, like Hon. Wamalwa has been doing, following his Motion relentlessly. If a Member has interest in any Motion, they should approach us. It is difficult for us to pick a particular Motion unless a Member follows it up. view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: In fact, our Committee is supposed to be supported by all Committees. Instead it is treated as if it is an inferior Committee. I am complaining because we do not have a lady Member. This is the only Committee that comprises of male Members of Parliament. view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: We want ladies. It is very important because there are issues that touch on women yet we do not have even a single one. I would like to tell my colleagues that this is a very important Committee they should sacrifice and join us. Even if we were to have two lady Members, we will be very happy. view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you very much. I really appreciate what the Leader of the Majority Party said. view
• 3 May 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to second. view
• 25 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I wish to support the Motion and commend its Mover. This is not a new Motion. It has been coming up over the years. I believe the law is also supporting it, but the problem has been its implementation. We should ensure as Parliament that the Motions we pass are implemented. I come from Narok. Narok Town is in my constituency and it has become a case study in the issue of flooding. The cause of such flooding is the destruction of the environment, especially the Mau Forest. Even if we built as many ... view
• 25 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Most of it is caused by the soil erosion caused by the mining of sand in those areas. It is also because of the destruction of the forest along Mt. Longonot. So, until and unless we protect our forests, there is no way we can contain that water. If we do not elect professional managers for a place like Nairobi… If we are going to always elect political managers, then I can assure you there is nothing we can do for this country. It will get worse by the year and by the day. So, we need to look into ... view
• 27 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I would like to comment on the Petition by Hon. Keter and also inform him that there were reasons for putting a caveat on Mau Forest. I would like to further inform him that there was a taskforce which proved that there were no valid titles in the Maasai Mau. There were crooked individuals who sold land to unsuspecting people who extended the boundaries of group ranches. Unless you are telling Kenyans and the world that you do not respect the rule of law, you will lift those caveats. We cannot politicize the issue of the ... view
