• 11 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you hon. Speaker, Sir. Pursuant to Standing Order No. 44 (2)(c), I wish to request a Statement from the Chairperson of the Committee on Administration and National Security regarding people who were displaced from various parts of the Rift Valley such as Njoro, Subukia, Elburgon and others during the tribal clashes of 1991/1992. Within a period of time these people escaped to Kieni Forest in the Aberdare Ranges, engaged in the shamba system to sustain their livelihoods up to the year 2000, when the said system was stopped. Thereafter, they were squeezed into a section of the forest and ... view
• 6 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, I beg to move the following Motion:- view
• 6 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: THAT aware that the road network in the country currently stands at approximately 160,886 km, out of which only approximately 11,189 km are paved; noting that the extent of the unclassified rural and urban roads remain unknown with most of such roads in bad condition; aware that good infrastructure facilitate trade, economic development and improvement in the quality of life; this House urges the Government, through Kenya Rural Roads Authority (KERRA), Kenya National Highway Authority (KENHA and Kenya Urban Roads Authority (KURA) to upgrade a minimum of twenty (20) and a maximum of thirty (30) kilometers of roads to bitumen ... view
• 6 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: I would like to take this House a little back and remind it about floods which washed away our roads. The damage the floods caused on our roads is estimated at Kshs30 billion. This is a very serious issue because if we want to achieve food security in this country, then we have to repair our roads. This is because most of our food comes from the rural areas because our economy is agriculture-based. Those roads are in a very bad state and we have a tall order to achieve food security. view
• 6 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, the floods which were experienced a month ago damaged our roads to the tune of Kshs30 billion. This is the case and yet the allocation that was made by the Treasury was a mere Kshs1.5 billion. So, you can see that there is a deficit of Kshs28.5 billion. This amount will only cater for the existing roads which were damaged by the floods. Most of those roads are unpaved and they are in the rural areas where agricultural activities normally take place. That is why I came up with this Motion and I would like to plead ... view
• 6 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, when this House was inaugurated, I was shocked to learn that most of the Members contribute funds to primary school children to go and see paved roads elsewhere. You cannot image this level of marginalization. I do not even know the best parliamentary words that I can use. This infrastructure imbalance has to come to an end but how will it come to an end? It is by making sure that after the dispensation of the new Constitution each and every Kenyan is equal; each and every area or part of this county is also equal. How ... view
• 15 May 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Speaker, Sir. I want to seek a clarification. view
• 15 May 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, I would like the Leader of the Majority Party to clarify something about Nyandarua because I have seen that he only mentioned Kipipiri. Hon. Wanyonyi has said that he worked with TARDA and he mentioned Aberdares. So, I would like to get a clarification from the Leader of the Majority Party. They should know that all the floods come to Nyandarua, which is my constituency. The floods have affected that area so badly that the roads have been washed away. The dams have been damaged and yet, the report is only talking about Kipipiri, which is downstream. ... view
