• 1 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Clause 13 of the Bill has a dangerous provision that the Director General may, with the approval of the board, cause any official statistical data collected, analysed and disseminated by the bureau to be cancelled, revised or adjusted after ascertaining the data is not accurate. This cannot be allowed to pass. We are simply sanctioning incompetence. We are simply sanctioning poor planning and there is a hidden hand here. If you release data that I am not happy with and I can marshal pressure from elsewhere, we will cause the data to be cancelled, recalled or ... view
• 1 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, as I conclude, I must commend the Senate for the Fourth Schedule which has laid down the principles of official statistics, that is commendable. In the First Schedule that has been amended, we need to do further amendments because there are very many issues that need to be addressed where official statistics are needed instead of relying on half-baked research papers. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 1 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: Finally, I urge all people of Busia County, because it is even written in the Bible that Joseph and Mary went back to their home area to be counted, during the census on 24th August, let everybody go back to their counties to be counted for purposes of equitable allocation of resources under the county government and the National Government Development Constituencies Fund, whichever approach we will take. view

• 31 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to ask the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) Question No.352/2019.

• 31 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: That is why I said it was a typo. view
• 31 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: It happened most likely between the Table Office and my Personal Assistant. That is why I am seeking your indulgence to correct that typo. view
• 31 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for your indulgence. (ii) How many deputy head teachers and other teachers in the constituency have the requisite academic qualifications and grades for promotion to the position of head teachers as per the requirements of the Ministry and the TSC? Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker view
• 30 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand here today to mourn a person I would call my young brother, Hon. Ken Okoth. He joined Starehe Boys’ Centre when I had just left about three years earlier but through the Old Starehe and Society, we came to interact and I came to know him as a vibrant young man who was indeed cut for higher stations in life. On behalf of Funyula Constituency and my own behalf, I also join the entire nation to condole the two senior leaders of this country, Hon. Ken Okoth and Governor Dr. Joyce Laboso. Indeed, Hon. ... view
• 30 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this Motion. On the onset, I support it because it is recommending the appointment of an independent auditor to audit the Auditor- General. As you are aware, the Office of the Auditor-General is established under Article 229 of the Constitution of Kenya 2010. Likewise, under Article 226 of the Constitution, the National Assembly is bestowed with the duty or power to appoint an external auditor to audit the books of the Auditor-General. Indeed, the watchdog must also have a watchdog. Many of us know that The ... view
