• 29 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, please, protect me! view
• 29 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman for protecting me. I am giving the House some background information because I am an expert on matters banking. view
• 29 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: I support the amendment because it is going to give banks an opportunity to price deposits the way they want. They are also going to ensure that people who have excess deposits in banks can negotiate on their own terms. Otherwise, we are giving banks some room for them to lend SMEs. The problem we have now is that SMEs are not able to access these facilities. The banks will have the spread for, of say 10 or 15 per cent, and they can decide to give the benefits to SMEs. view

• 28 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Because I have read the mood of the House and the Members have properly canvassed on this issue, I would like to request that you to call upon the Mover to reply. view
• 28 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 8 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I oppose this Motion because from the Report that has been read to us by the Committee, we have been told that Esther has worked in the Government for many years, moving from one position to the other.

Let me start by highlighting one of the most recent responsibilities that she had as Investments Secretary ... view
• 8 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Hon. Mbarire is putting her case across, but I do not think it qualifies as a point of order. As I conclude, we know who Nicholas Kipyator Biwott was in this country during the time Esther Koimett was rising in her positions. The truth of the matter is that the positions she has held in Government are not due to her competence, but because of favours. That is why I insist that this is not the best person to sit in this position. I plead with the House to be decisive and help the President get ... view
• 25 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I would like to commend the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning who is also my Chairman for the excellent manner in which he has presented our Report. But, I want to observe that this issue attracted public attention. When Dr. Chumo presented himself before Parliament, I had the advantage of meeting him on the corridors. I could feel he was “smelling” a police cell. I began to think that this is a clear case of impunity. Can you believe a case of somebody who “smelling” a police cell appearing before an ... view
• 25 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: We have taken a precedence setting action. Everybody in the country who wants a public office must use this as a precedent that you cannot occupy a serious public office if you are a person who is below reproach and suspicion. Just like Caesar’s wife... view
