• 14 Jun 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Bill. I also want to congratulate my sister, Hon. Sabina, for bringing forth such a beneficial Bill to the mother and child. They say a healthy nation is a wealthy nation. As Hon. Florence Kajuju has said, as mothers, we know the benefits of breastfeeding a baby exclusively for six months. Breastfeeding a child for six months cuts the risks of having weak children who are susceptible to infections such as diarrhoea and vomiting. It also cuts the mortality rate of children by a reasonable rate. It is very unfortunate ... view
• 14 Jun 2017 in National Assembly: Indeed, I want to say in this House that giving birth to children is doing what God commanded human beings to do; to go forth and fill the world. When we look at breastfeeding as an awkward and outdated thing, you are simply telling the career women to harvest babies from trees. Just like my friend, Hon. Kajuju has said, in the 12th Parliament, I will not just struggle to get a child again, but I will pull the strings. I can assure you of that. We have smoking zones in this country. It is very ironical that we have ... view
• 14 Jun 2017 in National Assembly: It is very unfair to have women choose between their careers and babies. We know both of them are very important. When we have these breastfeeding zones and baby care centres, the productivity of the working mother will be at its best. You can imagine a mother leaving a child who is less than one year to a house help whom she has barely known for two hours or even for one day. I can assure you that lady will not be productive at work. If the private and public sectors ensure that they all have those baby care centres, ... view
• 14 Jun 2017 in National Assembly: Just like the speakers who have contributed before me have said, when those ladies pursue courses for promotion outside the country or work stations, many of them are forced by circumstances, simply because they have to choose between staying with the babies or pursuing those courses. Most employees do not cater for things like the baby nurse who travels with the baby. It is surprising how when it comes to some things that deal with the affairs of women, we start talking of the wage bill and the expenses in this country. We know finally that losing those babies will ... view
• 14 Jun 2017 in National Assembly: At the outset, I want to support this Bill and call upon this honourable House to support it because it has come of age whereby young ladies must take up very challenging positions both in the private and public sectors. We should not be punished for being fertile. In fact, we should thank God for that. We should not be punished for filling the earth just like God commanded. So, this is a very important Bill. We should support it so that we eventually have a healthy nation, which will be a wealthy nation. view

• 22 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: Ninashukuru Mhe. Naibu Spika wa Muda kwa kunipa fursa hii kuchangia Hotuba ya Mtukufu Rais kwa taifa tukufu la Kenya. Waswahili husema “aliye na macho haambiwi tazama”. Ndiposa nasimama mbele ya Bunge hili nikishangaa sana vile wapinzani wetu wanaongea. Kaka aliyesema mbele yangu amenishangaza kwa sababu anapotoka yeye, barabara ya lami ilifika baada ya Serikali ya Jubilee kuchaguliwa. Rais alizungumzia kuhusu vita dhidi ya uraibu wa madawa ya kulevya katika nchi tukufu ya Kenya. Hakuna Serikali nyingine ambayo nimeona ikipigana na janga hili la madawa ya kulevya na uraibu wake jinsi Serikali ya Jubilee ilivyopigana nayo. Vizazi vyetu haswa vijana ... view
• 22 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: Suala lingine nyeti ambalo Rais alizungumzia katika Bunge hili ni usalama. Yale ambayo tumeona yakifanyika haswa katika baadhi ya kaunti kama vile Laikipia ninakotoka, Kaunti ya Baringo, hawa ni majambazi ambao ni Wakenya na wanaangamiza wakenya wengine. Hii ndio maana ninataka kumpa heko hata kwa kutuma jeshi kwenda kudhibiti usalama. Rais anapozungumza kuhusu kupatia kazi vijana, tunaelewa biashara ambayo sisi Wanalaikipia tunafanya. Biashara ambayo iko Laikipia ni biashara ya utalii. Biashara ya utalii katika Laikipia inaenda kuangamia kwa sababu ya ujambazi na jinsi tulivyoona mahali pa utalii pakiharibiwa. Baadhi ya mambo ambayo yameharibu usalama na kuchangia sekta ya utalii kufa ... view
• 22 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: ndugu zangu walio katika Bunge hili kuwa, tupigane na ugaidi kwa pamoja na si kuliachia jambo hili Rais ama jeshi pekee. Ninavyoelewa ni kwamba, waliochangia pakuu kutuma jeshi letu Somalia, mmoja wao ni yule babu ambaye anatarajia kugombea kiti 2017 ambaye ni kinara wa Upinzani ambaye tunamfahamu kama Raila Odinga. Ninaomba ndugu zangu walio Upinzani wasipinge tu kwa sababu Serikali ya Jubilee imefanya, lakini wapinge kwa sababu ya kupinga. view
