6 Oct 2021 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I support the amendment by the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock because what this amendment is doing is just renumbering the clauses. In addition, it says that you cannot export or import without a valid licence from the board. It is giving the board the power to make sure that anybody who will be exporting or importing sugar has a valid licence. This is because people might obtain licences that are not from the board. People may go to the Cabinet Secretary or somebody else to try and get a ...

5 Oct 2021 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Speaker. This Petition by Jonah Gachuki on various elective offices is misplaced because, if he seeks to do a constitutional amendment on Article 102, 148 and 180, he needs to collect one million signatures, just like those who were promoting BBI did. These are careers and they are determined by the people. After every five years, the constituents will decide. Even in your case, Hon. Speaker, we are the ones who elect you because we are satisfied with your performance. In elective positions, I think, you seek the mandate from the people as we are heading into ...

5 Oct 2021 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I find the time sought by the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning inappropriate. This is because Kenyans expect us to work and we should not be extending time when people are expecting results from us. I think it is a failure by the Committee to take this matter very seriously. This is because if we agreed that within two weeks they were supposed to table a report before this House, then we should have stuck within those two timelines. Today, when she sought time, she should have given us a progress ...

5 Oct 2021 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Speaker for allowing me on this World Teachers’ Day to congratulate our teachers for what they have done. We can say that for doctors, when your patient heals you feel good. For teachers, when students excel and pass with distinctions, they walk with pride. Teachers are the only people who will never feel jealous of a child performing well. In fact, they take time with a child who is not improving in class to sit down and empower that child to do well. I think teachers are people who are gifted with good hearts and intentions and ...
