Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to support this Bill. We all know that this House is in charge of devolution. Devolution is working. If we continue protecting it jealously, it will even work better for our people. There are some governors misappropriating funds. However, this should not be a reason for us to punish all governors because of one or two mistakes of individual governors. We are supposed oversight county governments. As we do so, we should identify loopholes, issues, challenges, and problems facing county assemblies. Since inauguration of the current Constitution, the budget ...

Asante, Bw. Spika. Kwanza ningependa kuchukua nafasi hii kumpongeza Waziri kwa utaalamu wake wa kujibu maswali. Bw. Spika, nimeona ameguzia juu ya mambo ya ugaidi Lamu. Ningependa kumueleza kwamba kuna barabara ya Lamu-Kiunga ambayo haipitiki na inachangia pakubwa sana kwa kuwasaidia watu ilhali hiyo ndio barabara inayotumika na magaidi. Mara nyingi utakuta wakaazi wa Kiunga wanatumia njia ya bahari kwa sababu ya ukosefu wa usalama wa barabara ya Kiunga kwenda Lamu. Naomba Mhe.Waziri, kama kuna uwezekano wa majeshi kwenda kuirekebisha ili ikupunguza ugaidi na kuimarisha usalamu katika Kaunti ya Lamu. Ninajua Bw. Waziri ni muhusika mkubwa katika Wizara yake juu ...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I will be very brief. My question to the Cabinet Secretary is, what will be the fate of the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF) staff after the disbandment of NHIF? She is saying they will be newly employed. Will they be paid their dues for the years they have been working? That part is silent from the Government. Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir.

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, my Question to the Cabinet Secretary is that there has been a power outage in Lamu for the last 10 months. This is due to the pylon, which was attacked, and it is causing many economic losses. Our health facilities are affected. Our dialysis machines and many other machines are damaged. Our fishing industry is very much affected. Our security is also affected. Could the Cabinet Secretary tell us when this pylon will be repaired, because It has taken 10 months and we have been suffering? We have written to the Directors and done a lot, ...

Asante, Bw. Naibu wa Spika, kwa kunipa fursa hii kuchangia kidogo kuhusu Taarifa kuhusu ajali za barabarani. Ajali za barabarani zinaweza kupunguzwa ikiwa sharia itafuatwa kikamilifu. Sharia ya kwanza ambayo haifuatwi kikamilifu ni ufungaji wa mikanda ya usalama ndani ya magari. Watu hawapendi kufunga mikanda ya usalama ilhali ni kitendo ambacho kinaweza kuokoa maisha. Ni muhimu sana---

Bw. Naibu wa Spika, sharia na sheria hazina tofauti. Ni jinsi tu unavyopenda kutamka. Ukitaka kusema sharia ama sheria, inamaanisha kitu kimoja. Ukitaka kujua zaidi, nione nyuma ya tent nikufunze mengi. Bw. Naibu wa Spika, katika nchi kama Rwanda, boda boda hubeba mtu mmoja na wote huvaa helmet . Hapa Kenya, boda boda inaweza kubeba watu wanne au watano na wakianguka, wote wanafariki kwa sababu hawafuati sheria za kuvaa helmet zinazozuia mtu kuumia endapo atapata ajali. Ni muhimu law enforcement itekelezwe ili kupunguza ajali za barabarani. Utakuta polisi wa trafiki wanachukua hongo barabarani. Akikuta scratch kwa gari lako, anakuuliza mbona ...
