• 9 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I would have wished to donate more minutes, but because of limitation of time I will just go ahead and reply. First, I would like to thank all the Members for their contributions to this Bill, especially my seconder, Hon. Sankok, who is seated right here. As the author of the Bill, I have learnt several things as far as enriching the fight against corruption is concerned. I am sure even in the subsequent registration we will continue to make this war better and bolder. Hon. Deputy Speaker, Rome was not built in a day. ... view
• 9 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: who are elected and, therefore, it is time we strengthened this fight. We have seen other countries do so, and they have won the fight. When I was moving the Bill, I gave the example of Singapore, which I will not repeat. There is another clear example of South Korea, where we have two former presidents serving jail terms. We can give countless examples of countries that decided to liberate themselves from corruption and the results were economic growth that trickled down to their population. Hon. Deputy Speaker, we also have to know that beyond legislating, there are three components ... view

• 9 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. My reason for opposing is not about the content, but the general view of things. If you look at the many legislations and Motions that have been brought before this House in the recent past, we are just perpetuating the idea of a big Government. Bills, and especially Motions, come with creation of boards or other institutions. That is why our Government is burgeoning and becoming so big for us to handle, especially given our income streams. view
• 9 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Already, our country has so many institutions that are domiciled in the agriculture and trade sectors. I do not think the creation of another board and institution will add anything and, especially, when it comes to livestock farmers. I have many reasons to give with regard to my opposing this Bill. There is no much in terms of livestock products when you talk about East Africa. Ethiopia is doing very well when it comes to livestock. Actually, many of the leather products we consume in Kenya originate from Ethiopia. When it comes to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) percentage of ... view
• 9 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: livestock farmers? The answer is in the tea board, coffee board and many boards that are geared towards alleviating poverty and suffering of farmers. Tea and coffee sectors are worse off with so many boards. Therefore, the solution to our agriculture and livestock sectors in not in creating boards and institutions based in the public sector. The solution is for us to create an enabling environment as Government for the private sector to perform. We need to avoid over legislation, like what we are doing with this board that is being created by this Bill. Allow me to give the ... view
• 2 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I started moving this Bill a while back. Thank you for the opportunity to conclude moving it so that it can progress to the final stage. I am seeking to amend the Anti-Corruption and Economic Crimes Bill to have stiffer penalties for those convicted of such kinds of crimes. Hon. Deputy Speaker, there is a lot of echo. I am seeking to amend this Bill to increase the penalties in terms of fines. Currently, anyone convicted with these kinds of crimes is given a fine of not more than Kshs1 million. This Bill, is seeking ... view
