Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. From the outset, it is very clear that the drafter of this Bill never understood why these commissions were created. We formed the Human Rights Caucus in the last Parliament with my colleagues, Hon. Neto and the late Ken Okoth – may God rest his soul in peace - squarely to make sure that we strengthen the work of the Commission; the National Gender and Equality Commission, and give them separate powers. It is unfortunate that we are today looking at NGEC as an issue of women. Today, you and I have been talking ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to suggest that we stick to our protocols of COVID-19. I want to give this House a personal experience. I am fully vaccinated and my wife was fully vaccinated. But she ended up getting COVID-19 from our daughter. Things were very terrible for her despite having been vaccinated. This is not an issue to just imagine. This is a very serious issue. Latvia has vaccinated 80 per cent of her population, but this week, Latvia has gone on lockdown because the disease is within the community. The most serious part of opening up this ...

Hon. Speaker, I urge and beg you. You are a man of wisdom. Reject that proposal from Hon. Duale and we maintain the COVID-19 protocols because of the experience I underwent with my wife.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Before we move to the next Order, I beg to get a response to a Question I asked on 7th October 2021 regarding a young man who was picked up by the police and later found dead at the Kenyatta National Hospital. The Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security had promised to give an answer within two weeks. This is a very emotive issue in my constituency. The constituents and the family are waiting to get a response from the Government, probably today, because justice delayed is justice denied. We need to deal ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I will indulge the Chairman. The case of the late Abubakar Muli Nduva is a very emotive issue in Tala. If you are requesting for another five days, I will agree with you. Make sure that we dispense with this matter once and for all, so that the family can get justice and the people of Matungulu can have peace.

Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. On the Petition regarding animal feeds, it is very unfair if you look at the cost of animal feeds in this country. Through your wisdom and Standing Order No. 1, we need to loop in the Departmental The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

Committee on Trade, Industry and Co-operatives and the Departmental Committee on Regional Integration into this Petition because of the serious trade imbalance between Kenya and our neighbours. Some of us are very serious farmers. We are being forced to buy animal feeds from our neighbouring countries where they are cheaper than they are here in Kenya. You cannot compare the cost of those feeds in the neighbouring countries with what is being sold in this country. This does not only apply on animal feeds. If you look at pesticides which are used by most of the farmers in this country, ...
