• 19 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, hon. Speaker. Today in Kenya, we have lost a leader. On behalf of my family and the people I represent in Kuria East, we want to send condolences to the relatives and friends of our dear Senator. May the Lord rest his soul in eternal peace. view
• 7 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this very important Bill. The Finance Bill is an engine for the Government to drive its economy and its business of serving the people. This Bill seeks to amend many clauses in the financial laws in order to make it easy for businessmen to run their businesses.

I also want to cite ... view
• 7 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: are cutting the hand that feeds them. So, I urge that the taxman becomes a little bit reasonable. They should be friendly to the taxpayers. This Bill is important. My Finance Committee has visited some industries like Kenya Breweries and we have listened to them. They have very genuine reasons to ask to be exempted because then, if you do not do that, that cost is transferred to the view
• 7 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: . The mwananchi becomes hopeless and he takes some drinks which kill him. These amendments should be looked into to make sure that the taxman does not only get the money from the trader, but also makes sure that the trader has a way of trading so that, in future, he can be paying taxes.

• 19 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to thank this Committee for bringing up this Budget Policy Statement (BPS) which, to me, is very important. I want to look at the village polytechnics that we have. It is not only money that we lack. There is one thing that the Government has forgotten about those institutions; they give them teachers who are not trained. They give them people from the Jua Kali sector and those who graduate from those institutions do so without any technical education. We should make sure that money is set aside to sharpen ... view
• 19 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I have 51 primary schools and out of those, only 30 have electricity. I wonder what will happen to the 21 when we have the laptops programme fully operating in primary schools. I, therefore, want to support that the money that the Budget and Appropriations Committee is proposing be allowed to go to REA so that it can supply every primary school in this country with electricity. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I also want to say that in my constituency, we have chosen two schools of excellence. It is not only the laboratories that we lack, ... view

• 25 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I do not know much about that lady but, having heard what my colleagues have said, I am sure that she is able to execute this job. As to my friend Dr. Ali, I happened to have worked with him. I know him as a very hard-working man. He is also a man of integrity. I happened to work with him in KANU. He was our treasurer. I am sure he will be able to execute his job. view
