• 24 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for the opportunity. I would like to support this Motion because most of these Members are very active members of this Committee. We have seen what they have done, therefore I support this great team. As Kenyans, there is something which we have to know: Kenya is greater than any one of us. As we approach the elections of this year, as leaders, it is our duty to make sure that Kenya is peaceful everywhere. We do not want to see what happened in 2007/2008. Most Kenyans suffered because of the loose talk from most leaders ... view
• 30 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity also to support this very important Motion. As we all know, the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology has given a lot of money to our primary schools. The major problem these schools face is improper accountability. You find that the head teachers of those schools work as accountants and planners. It becomes very difficult for them to do all this work. Most of them do not know accounts work. Therefore, I support my friend Hon. Lusweti for bringing this very important Motion hoping that when we The electronic ... view
• 30 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: pass it, it will be brought back in form of a Bill to be effective and to help us manage the funds which go to our primary schools. view
• 30 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: As Members of Parliament, we give money from the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF) to these schools, but at some stage it becomes very difficult for the head teachers to manage it. If they have to build classrooms and other facilities which are required in those schools, they cannot manage to teach and manage finances of their primary schools. So, it is timely and important to have bursars in our primary schools. I say so because it is manageable. As much as I agree that each school cannot get a bursar, we can go for the easy way of ... view
• 30 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: The money given by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology to schools to build classrooms and laboratories should be balanced throughout the country and we should know which schools have received it. This money is there and the Ministry should give it to all schools in this Republic. view
• 30 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: As we all know, education is key. When we talk of Free Primary Education it should be extended to secondary education. Most of the bright children from poor families find it very difficult to join Form One because their parents are not able to pay school fees. As we know, the Government collects a lot of revenue from all quarters. Education should be given priority and thus free secondary education should be introduced to assist children from poor families. If we go that way, we will balance this nation and we shall not be talking about poor and rich families. ... view
• 30 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I support and request the Mover to bring the Motion in form of a Bill. Thank you. view
• 9 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I also rise to support the amendment as proposed by the Committee. view
• 9 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: THAT, Clause 17 of the Bill be amended in sub-clause (1) by deleting paragraph (e) and substituting therefor the following new paragraph – (e) five other members appointed by the Cabinet Secretary out of whom - (i) one person shall be nominated by the Kenya Private Sector Alliance; (ii) one person with knowledge and experience in matters relating to the petroleum from an institution of higher education. view
• 20 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I take this opportunity to thank the Mover of this very important Motion. All the Members support this Motion. Once it is passed, it will create job opportunities for our people. I would also like to urge the Government to establish some cooling plants along the fish landing beaches. That way, we will have a lot of fish for export, which will earn us foreign exchange. What is so disappointing is the fact that we have a lot of fish around yet we are importing fish from China. This is very bad. We are spending our ... view
