• 29 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: In the Nairobi City, any tall building or any significant construction site belongs to Government employees. We no longer have private sector in this country. We have private- public sector; people who use public money to advance their private enterprises. view
• 29 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, in my layman’s term, I believe, for example, when we find culpability upon a Government officer, to them, it is very personal. In fact, they can pay any price not to face the full force of the law. On the side of prosecution, you will find an impersonal prosecutor who is just after doing his or her job. If you put on the balance somebody who has money, which is personal to their lives, families and future, and on the other end, a prosecutor who is an impersonal Government official, then you put a money bait, ... view
• 29 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: I agree with you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I am just pointing out the problem and where it is. I want to believe that we do not have patriotic people The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 29 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: especially when it comes to prosecutorial roles in terms of graft. If you put a bait of money between patriotism and money, most of them choose to take the perks. Also, the issue of asset audit will go a long way because you will be targeting where the money is going. It is very easy. I am a Member of Parliament for Kiharu. If for example, I am an accounting officer anywhere, and I have a multibillion project going on and you ask me very simple questions like show me where you are getting money to invest in such an ... view
• 29 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: There is the animal called the IFMIS. For any query you put forth to public officials, the only place they hide is IFMIS. We have also recommended that IFMIS is not a simplicity that should be brought about by ICT. The ICT should simplify matters. If you try to check the loopholes that are in IFMIS, it provides very good avenues for people to hide when we query them. You have multiplicity of people who log into IFMIS and it becomes very hard for anyone to trace who authorises, who logs in and who manipulates the system for their won ... view
• 27 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for this chance to contribute. I support the Committee and the Report. view
• 27 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: This was a very noble idea. Currently we should be promoting innovation and anything around ICT. As we talk about jobs here in Kenya, especially blue-collar jobs, the world has already moved on and many jurisdictions are talking about basic universal income for their citizens basically because of the job disruptions that are caused by artificial intelligence, robotics and such novelties. Therefore, anything that is geared towards promoting innovation and ICT should be supported. We also have several merging programmes, for example, through the NG- CDF we have one for electricity through Rural Electrification Authority (REA). The coming up together ... view
• 27 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: I side with the many Members who are suggesting that we should be given leeway to do it alone. It is because I believe the NG-CDF is one of the most efficient funds that we have in this country. The NG-CDF is one of the few funds that give taxpayers value for money. It is also because of the dynamics in our respective constituencies. For example, I come from Kiharu Constituency which has six wards and two sub- counties. You then tell me that we do three locations of hubs. I think that is an area that should be left ... view
• 27 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: We may want to do it per ward. Some of us have fewer wards than others. I know other people would prefer to use different geographical jurisdictions. The NG-CDF Board should hasten the reallocation of these monies. We have so many needs in our constituencies that require these monies. I am talking about the Kshs4 million. Since this is a forthright matter, the NG-CDF Board should not take so long in reallocating these monies to projects that have gone through public participation to projects that need to be implemented. view
• 27 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Even as we talk about IT and merging our programmes with the ICT Ministry, we should look beyond IT because in our country the creation of jobs is not just purely on the basis of employment or ICT. We need to open up such kinds of partnerships in so far as promoting cottage industry is concerned because we were purely doing the hubs to create jobs. I believe we can also do the same and advance the same thing by partnering with other entities, especially Government ministries and organisations in so far as creating jobs within cottage industry and value ... view
