• 11 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I beg to move that the House doth agree with Committee in the said Report. I request hon. Mwaura to second the Motion for agreement with the Report of the Committee of the whole House. view
• 11 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to move that the Persons with Disabilities (Amendment) Bill (National Assembly Bill No. 43 of 2013) be now read a Third Time. I also request hon. Mwaura to second the same. Before hon. Mwaura stands, I wish to thank hon. Members most sincerely for their contribution. They have shown a lot of concern in different clauses. I want to tell hon. Members that I am committed to repealing the whole Act of persons with disabilities starting with the Education Act. I shall be doing that and asking for their support in future. Thank you ... view
• 10 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I am very happy that time has been on my side because this is the first Budget Policy Statement (BPS) which the women representatives are going to contribute to and they have some positive results. I am very happy for the Budget and Appropriations Committee to have considered the Women Representatives through the affirmative action. In this regard, I wish to point out the issue of the Kshs3 billion. This House has to style up and stand up beyond cheap politics. Every time people think of mischievous reasoning. Even very senior Members who should be ... view
• 10 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Development Fund (CDF) or their own money. This money has never had the administration fee component. The Ministry should capture that and possibly that money should be included in this BPS. view
• 10 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: As I conclude, I wish to thank this Committee because they have done a very good job considering the time constraint. We were on a long recess, but they have worked round the clock. I am sure that almost everyone is happy. Let us stop the sideshows of trying to put every penny to the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) even the money that is very obvious to the mwananchi . Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. view
• 18 Feb 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. First, I am in support of hon. Keynan, 100 per cent. I support this Bill because this country needs to be in order. This is the only way we can follow laws. This is the only way Sarah Serem can recognize us and many other people. Having said that, I want to recognize the students from Nyandarua High School in the Public Gallery. They come from the county which is known because of a great politician, J.M. Kariuki. I am happy that they are in school in spite of the crazy school fees in ... view
• 10 Feb 2015 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Speaker. I had put intervention for quite a long time. I am not sure if it is reflecting there, but looking at the number of Members in the House, we have no quorum. view
• 29 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. From the the outset, I stand to support this good Motion. Personally, I admired the late hon. Michael Kijana for his good English; he inspired me in many ways. There was a very good Motion in the Senate to have a university in each county. In Nyandarua, we do not have any university. With devolution, as the Mover of this Motion has indicated, a university will bring economic growth to this country. With devolution, each county seeks to have its own identity. Thus we should be free to identify our county with the people ... view
• 29 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I was saying that with devolution, all counties are free to identify themselves with the people they feel have greatly contributed to their counties and the country at large. Just like the J.M. Kariuki Hospital which has been renamed in my county of Nyandarua, it will bring an idea to our children and at some point people of my age will know who J.M. was and the political role he played. We know 50 years after Independence we have our Constitution. This has been contributed by people who lived before and after Independence. It is important ... view
• 29 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: place? I am also one of the people who have graduated with certificates; a diploma and a degree; possibly I will be professor in future just like hon. Margaret Wanjiru. As my colleague was saying, educational institutions are almost a basic need in the counties today. It will be good if the Departmental Committee on Education, Research and Technology tries to work hand in hand with the Committee on Implementation because many times we have had very great Motions. I remember when I joined this Parliament some time last year hon. Bett and I did a Motion on milk, which ... view
