• 22 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: Okay. Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. In most cases Kenya Airways has delayed flights. We do not understand this. If they do not have enough planes then let them add more. In other airlines there are no delayed flights. In most cases Kenya Airways tells passengers that they are sorry and they will have to wait for some time. That should stop. view
• 22 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the other important thing is that we need to increase operators. Let us license many other airlines to compete with Kenya Airways. Competition is healthy and this will improve the services in the air industry because it is the only way that fares will be brought down. However, if there is monopoly of only Kenya Airways, Fly 540 and the rest, then there will be no way they can reduce their air fares. Let us have air fares which very many people can afford. view
• 22 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: The other issue which we need to improve on is to have enough land for our airports. I have travelled to Japan and Moscow and I have seen their airports. We need space for our airports. You find we have houses neighbouring airports. I am surprised because in a place like Japan, when travelling from the airport you will go for 80 kilometres before seeing a house. This country can expand its airports. So, we need to The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the ... view
• 22 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: make sure that we have enough space for our airports because you find houses all around and it is very risky to our people in case there is a problem. So, we need to improve on our planning of our airports. view
• 22 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: So, I want to say that we really need to license more people, improve our airlines and have more aircraft so that we can have many people using them without delay. It is very important. We need planes in these airstrips so that we can access local travels easily without many problems. view
• 22 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: So, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I support the Motion. Thank you very much. view
• 15 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to join my colleagues and hon. Members and contribute to this very important Bill. I feel it would have come a long time ago because we have really suffered and it is a business which has been done by everybody. We have seen that in most cases, even school children just leave school and go where there are metals lying around at garages and even from peoples’ fences and they uproot them just to start a business. That results to children dropping out of school. Therefore, this is a ... view
• 15 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: uprooted. You cannot know what is ahead of the road because the road signs has been uprooted and sold as scrap metal. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, this has been like a black market. We do not know who are buying the scrap metal. They do not care what they are buying. They can even buy parts of a car which have been removed from peoples’ cars. They just buy to re- sell them. Therefore, I think we need the council to come up with regulations and policies so that, at least, we can have order in the scrap metal business. ... view
• 25 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for recognizing gender. It is very important to consider the 20 per cent here in Parliament. I want to join my colleagues in supporting this Bill. This Bill ought to have come earlier on because drought has been disastrous to Kenyans. Sometimes there is destruction caused by floods and then we experience drought immediately afterwards. We need to conserve water during floods so that when there is drought we use the water to irrigate crops. We need to control deforestation. This is because drought is brought about by the cutting down of trees. We ... view
