• 16 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for the opportunity. First, I would like to thank Hon. Mwaura for coming up with this very important Motion that is aimed at supporting youth innovations by the Government. I have to give a few reasons why I think this is an excellent piece of legislation. view
• 16 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Firstly, I believe that the youth represent the future. We need to allow the youth or give them an opportunity so that they can find light at the end of this dark tunnel of this nation. Currently, we all know that Kenya is bogged down by corruption, poverty and unemployment. The people who suffer most as a result of these issues are the youth. It is important that we give them an opportunity so that they can brighten their future and ensure that the future of this nation is bright.

• 16 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Secondly, I support this Motion because of the importance that I believe innovation has in our lives. Essentially, innovation helps us solve life’s problems. You know that we have currently come up with interesting and exciting innovations. We are now able to transact with our bank accounts from this House through our mobile phones. We are able to communicate with people all over the world right here with a gadget you hold by hand. You are also able to communicate with somebody in the US, and you can see each other as you talk. Basically, innovation is extremely important. view
• 16 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: I believe that given an opportunity and since their minds are still fresh and open to great ideas, they can come up with incredible solutions. I want to imagine that right now, I am the Organising Secretary of the Wiper Democratic Movement of Kenya. I would imagine that one of these youth can come up with an innovation that can help us detect potential defectors even before they join our party. view
• 16 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: There is nothing that is impossible. These days you walk with a gun through a scanner and it can tell you are carrying a gun. It is probably possible. view
• 16 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, there is nothing that cannot be innovated. There are people who can look at your heart, measure your heartbeat and do all these things. I know that maybe we can be able to look at people’s minds and temperaments and know that this one has the potential of staying in the party for five years and another one will defect after one year. This will ensure that the people we get can help us. view
• 16 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: It is also possible that you can come up with innovation to catch corrupt people. These are possible things. Innovation is the ability to come up with new ideas and things that people thought were impossible. Maybe in future we will have a corruption free Kenya because we have people--- view
• 16 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for your protection. The other reason is, by empowering our youth, we are also helping them to fight the vices that affect them. These are issues to do with drugs, alcohol, early sex and marriages, prostitution and lawlessness. If we empower them we will basically allow them the opportunity to do greater things with their lives and, therefore, they will participate in some of the things that they do. The reason our youth look desperate and constantly getting involved in all these criminal offences is simply because they have no hope. If we give ... view
• 16 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: The other reason I support this Motion is because, it allows the Government to avail funds to the youths. The youth cannot access funds currently. If you go to a banking institution or any financial institution to try and get money to do business, one of the things that they will be expected to give is collateral security which they do not have. They have just come out of The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 16 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: college. It is important that we empower and allow them an opportunity to access funds that can enable them to start up their lives and come up with these great and brilliant ideas, and develop them into future innovations and inventions that will shape the future of our nation. view
