• 9 Jun 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for the opportunity. I have experienced what happened on the Bomas-Ongata Rongai Road. Those who have invested in housing in Ongata Rongai have a big problem having tenants. The importance of a good road is to assist the people to easily reach where they want to go. That road is a big problem to this nation. It is also very The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 9 Jun 2016 in National Assembly: expensive for the economy of this country. Therefore, it is very important to upgrade it into a dual carriageway. If possible, this should be done on the road that goes through Karen all the way to Ongata Rongai to make it easier for people who live in Ongata Rongai. With those remarks, I support the Petition. view

• 16 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Hon. Mwaura has brought a very important Motion to this House. Approval of building plans in this country must be done by the relevant authorities. Such activity must be supervised by the National Construction Authority (NCA).

• 10 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Parliament, as the mouthpiece of the common man, should be very candid and ask the Governor of the CBK should come out clean.

They are now competing to collect as much money as possible from ... view
