• 12 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: happy because there were those who were taking care of her. We want the same system to continue so that those who are old are there to tell young people stories, talk about marriages and community culture. We are basically losing our culture because the youth are not staying and engaging closely with the old. view
• 12 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: I was very sad when I watched news this week about Kilifi and Kwale counties. Even if you are not old but you have grey hair in that community, they believe you are a witch. I do not know how the youth believe that if you have grey hair, you are a witch. It is very sad. There are very many people who are being killed on suspicion that they are witches in parts of Kilifi and Kwale counties. It is very sad. They need to know that as you start greying, you are gracing well, you need to be ... view
• 12 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: I also wanted to talk about the inspectors. In the Bill, the county governments will employ inspectors to visit homes, assess and do monitoring and evaluation. I know most counties are suffering because of what they call wage bill. There are some counties that are paying up to 90 per cent of the revenue they get from national Government and the revenue that is generated locally and they cannot afford to hire additional staff. view
• 12 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: I support what my colleagues have said. Maybe we need to anchor this under the National Government Constituencies Development Fund so that at least we ensure we employ a social worker who is going to visit their homes; somebody who has knowledge in counselling so that it becomes viable. Otherwise as soon as we say it is going to the counties, basically, it is going to die. I tell you for sure that it is not going to succeed. It is important as I had said earlier to tell people that old age is not a disability and we are ... view
• 12 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: As a Committee, we received the Bill that is next on the Order Paper the other day but we did not get any report from the ICT Committee of the Senate. You heard what Hon. Millie Odhiambo said about for this Bill. There is no report at the Table Office. So it is important that as the National Assembly, when we get Bills from the Senate, we do public participation so that we engage the public afresh. I beg to support and end there so that my colleagues can have some time to also support the Bill. view

• 11 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, I beg to lay the following Paper on the Table of the House today Wednesday 11th March, 2020 - Afternoon Sitting. The Report of the Departmental Committee on Information, Communication and Innovation on its consideration of the County Outdoor Advertising Control Bill, Senate Bill No. 19 of 2018. Thank you. view
• 11 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to support this amendment. There are many buildings that have collapsed in the past. With introduction of this new code and new regulations on actualising the codes, it basically means we are putting the industry into order. Because of introduction of digital signatures, you actualise it by coming up with new regulations. view

• 5 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I rise to support this Business Laws (Amendment) Bill (National Assembly Bill No.80 of 2019). As a Committee, we were given the Kenya Information and Communications Act (KICA), 1998 to look at Clause 83B. When we met the Ministry and the Communications Authority of Kenya (CA), they were all in agreement that we need to amend the Act to take into account electronic signatures. In the recent years, there has been a general widespread use of electronic means of communication including electronic transactions for global trade. In this The electronic version ... view
