• 22 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I want to contribute to this Political Parties (Amendment) Bill. From the onset, I know there are some good amendments but, generally, we also have amendments that Members will bring. My main issue is that this Bill has hurriedly been brought. Even Members have been called away from their vacation to come and contribute. I think the issue of having free and fair elections will be a mirage if this House is not careful. Of interest is Clause 10 of the Bill. It provides that a person who, while being a member of a political ... view
• 22 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: parties to conduct their affairs democratically without threat or interference. One cannot talk of a free general election when parties are not free to run their affairs. What is, however, clear is that the Bill was brought as a decoy to change the terrain of political parties. To this end, I stand to be counted that I oppose. This Bill’s intentions are hidden. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to oppose. Thank you. view
• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I would like to start by commenting on the Petition by the residents of Yatta on the issue of squatters who were settled in that area, but up to now, are complaining of people who have been sent there to encroach on the land. This is something that is happening countrywide, more so in Endebess and specifically in Chepchoina Settlement Scheme, where people have settled for the last 20 years, but the Government displaced some of them. We want to caution the Government. We want the Ministry of Lands to handle all these issues in a ... view
• 11 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I rise to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Environment and Forestry the following Question: (i) Could the Cabinet Secretary explain the circumstances that led to the stoppage of the community forest associations that undertook the shamba system commonly referred to as Taungya System in various forest establishments in the country? (ii) What impact has this directive had on the forest cover in the country and when will the directive be lifted? (iii)Could the Cabinet Secretary explain whether the Kenya Forest Service (KFS) maintains roads that serve forests and particularly in the Endebess-Salema Road and Herman-Kiptogot Road in ... view
• 11 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, because of the humanitarian crisis in Sosio, these people are now displaced and are living in very difficult conditions. I want to ask that the Ministry responds within the next one week, please. view
• 11 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I just wanted to seek clarification from the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Labour and Social Welfare. You know, he has given a very good response, but what programmes of the State to recognise and protect the family unit do we have at the constituency level? What programmes do we have in our constituencies? I am talking about programmes we can relate with when we are in the constituencies. view
• 11 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. You know FKF for a long time has become a cash cow for certain individuals. This issue of moving to the Senate and coming to the National Assembly is one way of trying to evade issues of oversight. The Committee on Sports, Culture and Tourism is one that appropriates funds to the Ministry of Sports. That is the rightful Committee to deal with matters FKF and matters Ministry of Sports. So, even if the Senate does the report, where are they going to take it? So, I want to ask the Chair of the Sport, ... view
• 10 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I support the Petition by the Member for Kilifi North. It is a very sad case where Wambui leased her land to an oil company to do business and later on, they fraudulently forged her signature. It will be very important for the Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI) to be brought into this matter at the earliest opportunity so that those who have engaged in fraudulent activities can be prosecuted. Other matters of similar nature should also be looked into. Hon. Deputy Speaker, on the Petition by Hon. Njagagua… view
• 10 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: On the Petition by Hon. Njagagua, we are aware of many insurance companies that have collapsed with peoples’ assets and monies. This should set a good example. Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. 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
