• 27 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me a chance to contribute to this important Motion. I will also strive to limit myself within a reasonable time, so that, my colleagues can also have a chance to contribute. view
• 27 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: I echo my colleagues’ sentiments in supporting the idea that NG-CDF should be strengthened further so that more allocations can be made to the kitty. One of the many challenges we are facing at the constituency level is infrastructural development for our schools. Going by the Government’s policy of 100 per cent transition from primary to secondary schools, The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 27 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: it has become even a bigger challenge because every child has to go to school. Yet, there are no classrooms, dormitories and other infrastructural requirements like toilets. view
• 27 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: I also want to support the idea that any money that is meant for infrastructural development, instead of being channeled through the ministry, it be shared amongst the constituencies because we know where the shoe pinches the most. That would be better, other than someone seated at the national level in the ministry. We interact with students, teachers and parents on the ground and visit those schools.

• 27 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: I will stop at that point so that other Members can also make their contribution. I entirely support the Report and I thank the Committee for the good work done. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 20 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this very important Bill. Apart from aligning the administration and organisation of the board of trustees, there is also the management of the Fund. After perusing the Bill, I have seen that the Bill seeks to establish a fund. Looking at Clause 12, it seeks to establish a clear source of funds but there is very minor explanation on how they shall be utilised. Going forward, because this is just the Second Reading of this Bill, I believe it is important to bring amendments so that ... view
• 20 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: We need a very clear guideline on how this Fund will be utilised. Also, looking at the lotteries and gaming institutions that we have in this country and the kind of money they are making, we need to have a clear percentage which will be channeled out of their profits to this Fund. The wording is done in such a way that they may or may not give any money. This does not give teeth to the board to enforce the amount of money they should bring to the Fund. Looking at the Fund, some of the areas it should ... view
