• 4 Dec 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Motion. At the outset, I support the nomination of the former Member of this House to sit in that position. I hope we will come to a positive conclusion on this matter. As I support it, I did not have an opportunity to serve with her here. That is why we felt very intimidated when Hon. Pukose purported to call the Mover to reply. Knowing that 75 per cent of Members of Parliament are always new in every Parliament, it was important to be given an opportunity ... view
• 4 Dec 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I hope Standing Orders allow me to disregard the comment and proceed with my comment. As we stand here today… view
• 4 Dec 2019 in National Assembly: My colleagues who have spoken before me like the Leader of the Majority Party, made it very clear that we cannot bring the discussion to an end by calling the Mover to reply when there is nothing to reply to. You made a ruling to that effect that you would wait to listen to a few comments before you make a determination on that matter. view
• 4 Dec 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, allow me, if you do not mind, so that I do not lose my minutes to enable me make a contribution on this matter. I must admit that the service the hon. Member has offered this country is distinguished. I am even feeling such decorated CV going to SRC might not bring out the best of her in respect of service to this country. It is unfortunate that with such a kind of a CV, she has not been considered for higher positions in this country. Most of us would envy her because she would look as if ... view
• 4 Dec 2019 in National Assembly: As we stand here, many Kenyans feel CIC has veered off its mandate. CIC seems to concentrate on minor irrelevant issues. view
• 4 Dec 2019 in National Assembly: It is SRC. Thank you for the correction. The Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) seems to have veered off its mandate and concentrated on irrelevant issues instead of focusing on the core issue. The issue of productivity of an employee or a worker is related to the amount of compensation. For one to get the best of a person, he or she must feel adequately compensated for the services they are offering to the employer. In this respect, it is the Government or the people of Kenya. Concentrating on minor issues instead of looking at the HR aspect holistically is ... view
• 27 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I support the amendment to the Motion. It is not fair to leave it blank because the extension can be there forever. Capping it for a certain number of months is the right procedure, so that, at least, those responsible for appointing the Auditor-General have a period of six months to do what they are supposed to. view
• 27 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I support. view
• 27 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for this opportunity. As I second this Motion, I would like to remind my colleague that Funyula Constituency only sends titled men and women to represent them in Parliament. I belong to the Committee on Delegated Legislation. I support the Motion. Land is a central issue in the country because of its importance and centrality in the process of production, cultural and political dispensation. Therefore, these Regulations were meant to implement or actualise Article 60 of the Constitution of Kenya, which is the broad part of land administration that calls for efficient and effective ... view
• 27 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: consultations with the NLC. This raises the question: Does a mere invitation to attend a stakeholder meeting constitute consultation? We must also appreciate that that was probably the time we did not have a substantive NLC. That could have resulted in failure to demonstrate adequate consultation. Secondly, the issue of land transactions is important to Kenyans that it was necessary that there be a regulatory impact assessment report. The Ministry did not provide this. Thirdly, knowing the importance of land, it would have even been more prudent for them to go further and prepare some kind of social impact assessment ... view
