• 11 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I would like to quote what Nelson Mandela said about education. When he came out of prison, he said that education is the most powerful weapon you can use to change your world. With this particular institution, the standards of qualification in this country will be changed. We will ensure that we have uniform and ascertainable qualification standards that will cut across all the professions.

• 11 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: That is true, hon. Speaker. Of course, hon. Kaluma knows that this Bill does not originate from our Committee in which he is a very able Member.

Baiya, who is a very able Member of my own committee, to mislead the House that this Bill is in breach of separation of powers yet, he was in the Committee?

That is what this Bill is seeking to do. In fact, it is stating very clearly, “consultation between the national government and the county government.” In fact, he is just misreading the law.

• 6 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Article 95 of the Constitution is very clear, the Members of Parliament represent the interests of the people.
