• 26 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: For those reasons, I beg to support the Bill. view
• 26 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker. view
• 26 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Is Hon. Moroto in order to suggest there are moments when the Deputy President ceases to be the Deputy President of Kenya? We know he holds that office for five years. Is it in order for him to suggest that at times he is the Deputy President and others he is Mr. Ruto? Is it in order for him to mislead the House that way? view
• 26 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. From the outset, I support this Motion as my heart goes to hundreds of people who have lost their lives. The worst thing about it all is that this happened at 2 a.m. when mothers, their children and fathers were all asleep. In the thick of the night, it was difficult to get immediate help. When it was reported in one of our television stations that a mother had gone to bed with her six children and they were all swept away and lost their lives, my heart went out to that family and ... view
• 26 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: I would like to support Hon. Junet because what this calamity shows is that devolution is failing. Not too long ago, the House was debating about how much we should give to the counties and governors put up a spirited fight looking for more money. When 60 or more lives are lost within our counties in a situation where some help would have been accorded to the people, I am glad the National Assembly stopped the counties from getting all that money they wanted because losing one live is a live too many. If the money we give to the ... view
• 26 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: will have a lot of diseases coming up, especially given that there is too much flooding. The county government, given that health function is also devolved, must come up and ensure that we do not have diseases affecting the people as a result of the flooding and the congestion that we must be experiencing. I want to talk about floods that are related to the landslide. I come from an area where we are also experiencing a lot of flooding and some disaster or dangers from flooding. I am talking about areas like Usoma in Kisumu West Sub-county and Kapuothe ... view
• 13 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute. I can see that my friend is asking me to speak in Kiswahili. However, speaking in Kiswahili after Hon. Mishi will just be disastrous for me. view
• 13 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: When I think of pension, I think of an accumulation of one’s effort, commitments and service during their working period, which is given to them at the end of their working period on monthly basis. That is what pension is. This will not only apply to Members of Parliament but also to people who work in all other sectors because they serve diligently. The Members of Parliament have a legislative role. They make and pass laws that affect all the people of this country. These are laws that are geared towards making Kenya a better and good place to live ... view
• 13 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: you are re-elected, after 10 years of legislating and doing the oversight role to ensure that all the ministries and people who are given mandate to perform or render service to the people do it effectively…. After 10 years, during the period of 1984 to 2001, the Members who performed in those capacities only end up with a paltry Kshs6,000 every month. view
• 13 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: I know that many people think that Members of Parliament do not deserve anything good. However, I know that in their absence and with the mandates and the roles that they perform, Kenya will be totally different. I speak for all those people who served in that capacity and who languish in poverty, despite the fact that they gave us Kenya that we enjoy to live in today. I speak for those men and women who cannot afford to buy food for themselves and their families. I speak for those men and women who cannot clothe themselves, despite the fact ... view
