A niece of the late Robert Ouko, she was interested in politics in 1992. She recalls how she realized where her fate was in 1990s, when she followed her family discussions on political developments in the country. She used to follow keenly political activists like Paul Muite and James Orengo since she had an interest in people’s rights and justice. She gained experience in developing a solid manifesto and campaign structure during the campaigns of her husband Eric Nyamunga, former Nyando MP. In her manifesto, she promised economic empowerment for the youth and women, adult education for women, mentorship for girls and sports opportunities in the county.

Hon. Speaker, in my view, I do not think that the Kenya Government should once again release the Armed Forces to go and support the Sudanese. My reasons are as follows: For a very long time, if you take the example of Somalia, we have taken our Army to Somalia, but instead of getting any support from any other end, our people have suffered so much. We have lost a lot of young lives and we keep on doing that. Instead of being appreciated, we realize that we put our country in even great danger. Right now, we have a ...

Thank you, hon. Speaker. I also sought a Statement from the Departmental Committee on Education, Research and Technology concerning the number of school dropouts in this country and what the Government is doing about it because if we are not careful the number is getting out of hand. I did that four weeks ago.

Yes, I do not think that it is only the Chairpersons who are delaying most of the questions in the House. It is also taking too long for the questions to be brought to the House. I have asked several questions but it has taken more than two months, yet they have not even been listed. So, I do not know how long it will take. Every time I check, they tell me that there is a long list but I see so many questions coming up. There is a delay. Secondly, there should be proper use of language. If ...

Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I would also like to appreciate the Address by the President. I would say that, look at it on the surface; I would give the President some very good marks. I have to say that it is also very important for the Kenyan public to appreciate the way in which the President has tried to demystify the presidency by being very easy with the people, except for a few people who have shown themselves to be protecting the President even in Parliament, where nobody can harm the President. The President should be left alone ...

I want to say that the Address was generally good, but there are some issues that do not make a lot of sense to me. If you look at floods, we are at it again. It is now April, in another year. During this time last year, the President had the opportunity to be in Kisumu. He promised to do something about flooding. Here we are again, in April. If you look at the newspapers of today, you will learn that in my own constituency, in a village called “Kakola”, people are already in transit. They do not know where ...

Hon. Speaker, the intervention is that you have just put it very clearly that everybody is supporting, but here I am, I am not going to support. Can I be given the opportunity to articulate my points, if you do not mind?
