• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: I wish to donate only two minutes per Member and there are two Members. I will start with Hon. Richard Tong’i. view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I must say that I am very much perturbed by the support that the Hon. Members have given and the energy they have shown in this very important Motion. You will notice that several matters have been raised because we clearly have a challenge in our country. We contribute a lot to funerals that arise from accidents. We pay many hospital bills to patients who are borne out of accidents or through incidents of accidents. It is about time that we had a national dialogue with regard to accidents and road safety. view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: I do not really understand. When we were in school, you will remember that we learnt about the parts of insects. I am not really trying to undermine our education system, but we learnt about bunsen burners in high school. I am trying to find where I can use the parts of an insect, namely the head, thorax and abdomen in my real life, and yet it was very serious and examinable. We left very important issues like driving and road safety. It is about time we made this serious that we have a discussion on how we can have ... view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Exactly, especially the head, thorax, abdomen and all those things. I do not understand why I… view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I stand guided on that. I am not saying that learning about insects is bad, but going to the extent of learning about the parts of an insect where the legs, the thorax and the abdomen are located. That is the subject that I am raising. I am wondering why we could not learn the parts of a vehicle like where the pedal is placed. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for me if we can have that one as part of our curriculum, that we are learning about parts of an insect, then ... view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Last week alone in Nyamira County, we lost three students to road carnage because for them, putting on helmets while riding on a motorbike is for the police and that is the perception across the board. That we put on a safety belt because policemen will stop the vehicle. We will put on helmets and reflectors because policemen will stop us. People do not do these things for their own safety. That cannot only be taken serious when it is introduced in the education sector as part of a curriculum and as part of an examinable subject… As you all ... view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Having said that, I beg to reply. Since you can notice that there is no sufficient Quorum to put the Question, I propose that you defer this under Standing Order No.53(3) to next time. Thank you. view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move: THAT, the proposed allocation under the programme in respect of Recurrent Estimates (Domestic Loans to Individuals and Households), Kshs545,360,000 be deleted and substituted thereof with the figure, Kshs445,360,000. You will notice that the recurrent amount is too high for the SRC. Much of this money would probably be spent on flowers. So, we need to reduce it. In my opinion, the amount now should be used to settle the national deficit in the Budget. We need to reduce it by Kshs100 million to read Kshs450,360,000. view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the Order Paper has the right figure. We should go by that. A sum of Kshs95 million can save a situation somewhere in this country. view
