• 14 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: The other issue is that the IDPs are still suffering. Every time we discuss this in this House, we are actually touching those wounds and we are annoying those people. It is important to be realistic to the suffering of IDPs and ensure that we do not keep talking about this issue. view
• 14 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: I also understand that this Report was tabled in the House. The previous Parliament had the same powers that this Parliament has. So, it does not make sense that a report is tabled on the Floor of this House and then, years later, another Parliament comes in and says we want to discuss that report that was already tabled. I do not think it makes sense for us to discuss that report now because it was tabled in the previous Parliament. view
• 14 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: The other issue is that the ICC case is ongoing. I suspect that there is this belief that by discussing this here, we might be trying to affect that case. It is important to understand that the case in the ICC does not depend on what we say in this Parliament, prayer rallies, barazas and TV shows. The case is ongoing and it is based on evidence. The more we discuss these things in this House, the worse we make that case. In fact, if anything, we are just saying that we are not serious about justice for the people ... view
• 14 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: I strongly oppose. I want to remind the House that just before the last elections, the party leader of the Wiper Democratic Movement (WDM), His Excellency Kalonzo Musyoka, carried out shuttle diplomacy. He went all over the world to ensure that the cases were not taken to ICC. Unfortunately, some of the people that are shouting that we start discussing it here are the ones that opposed the shuttle diplomacy. view
• 14 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: In fact, they almost insulted our party leader. So, I want to say that you make your bed and lie on it. So, this is the time to lie on that bed. view
• 14 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: As I finish, the Speaker said that we have so much work to do. The substantive Speaker said that the National Assembly has so much work in committees that we do not have time to even go out to discuss issues. In fact, he talked about stopping foreign travel. Now instead of doing the serious business we have, we have started to discuss a Report that was tabled here in 2010. view
• 14 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: I oppose. We have a lot of work to do. If we are going to allow every report that has been tabled in this House to be discussed by a select committee, then after that another select committee, we will be wasting the taxpayers’ money and it is not fair to this country. Kenyans do not have time and do not support this. On behalf of the people of Kathiani, I oppose. view
• 14 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 13 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to contribute. Much has been said. So, I will be as brief as possible to allow more Members a chance to contribute. view
• 13 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: I want to begin with the purpose of this Bill. It says that the intent and purpose of this Bill is to constitute a court wherein claims of up to but not exceeding some certain jurisdiction of the court can be adjudicated informally and inexpensively but in accordance with established principles of law and natural justice. That sounds great. If we can go that way, then we begin to The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
