• 18 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: This Motion is very good. This year, the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology stopped ranking the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) and Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) examinations. For those of us who went through the old system of education, I remember that when I did my Kenya Certificate of Education in 1985, ranking was there. Each student used to get a booklet showing what number he or she was in the country. I do not see any reason for us to stop ranking. Ranking creates a healthy competition among students. It encourages each of them to ... view
• 18 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 18 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for your protection. I remember that while we were on recess, the newspapers analysed how Members of Parliament contributed to debate during the Second Session of the National Assembly. It emerged that some Members had spoken for over 1000 times. None of those Members asked why we were being ranked. Basically, that is part of ranking. Even when we compete for positions, each one of us is ranked from number one through to number last. The only thing we need to consider is improving the system of ranking, especially for private schools. They transfer ... view
• 18 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I will stop at this point since I want to give my colleagues a chance to debate this Motion. I want to urge them to be sober and support this Motion, so that at least ranking of schools can be reinstated. view
• 18 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: With those remarks, I beg to support. view
• 11 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Yes, hon. Chairlady, it is still on the same. After the passage of our Constitution in 2010, all of us, including those with disabilities, have rights. So, I support what Mheshimiwa has proposed, especially for public institutions like the Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) and a large bank like KCB. Maybe, we can only require those institutions to employ one interpreter per branch so that it will be easy for our brethren with disabilities to access their services. Currently, most of them are suffering and they have to go through a lot of difficulties in getting services in those institutions. So, ... view
• 4 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to oppose the adjournment of this Motion. I believe that when hon. Ken Obura came with the Motion, there was a reason to it. There have been some allegations outside there that the causes of the deaths of prominent people might have been caused by some people or other means. I suggest that we continue so that we can know the truth on what killed them. view
• 4 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I rise to support this amendment by the Chairlady of the Committee because this will assist to plan every five years. It will help counties monitor our forests. If this Bill was here before we would have dealt with those unscrupulous people who deplete our forests. So, this plan will assist and help us evaluate the status of our forest cover every five years. view
• 19 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I think what the Committee Members are doing is good; already, Clause 20 was deleted as proposed by the Chairperson. If we bring in the amendment by hon. Murgor--- Already the Council is not there because it was deleted through Clause 20. So, I oppose and believe the Committee Members should agree. If they are in consensus then it will mean we might have to go back to Clause 20. view
• 19 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: Yes. view
