Charles Ngusya Nguna

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Hon. Temporary Chairman, I am perturbed. About 15 constituencies have committed the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF) towards the construction of technical institutes and yet, after going through this Budget, the money for the completion of those technical institutes has not been factored...

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Chairlady. Based on the prevailing weather conditions in most of the Arid and Semi-Arid Land (ASAL) areas, I think this money is so little. We need to take note of that so that maybe, in future, we can add more money...

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Chairlady. We categorically and comprehensively dealt with this amendment during the Second Reading. I support it.

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. A total of 15 constituencies committed Ksh10 million in the Financial Year 2023/2024 to construct Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVETS) institutes. Those projects have stalled in most constituencies. What is the Ministry doing to ensure that it...

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Yes.

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Yes.

Hon. Charles Nguna (Kitui West, WDM) My good friend and brother, Hon. Murugara.

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) I would like to inform him that Kitui is one of the richest counties in terms of minerals, especially copper and gemstones. Therefore, I was very happy and excited when he mentioned Kitui County. Thank you. (Laughter)

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, it is just a point of information about Kitui County.

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. I just want to support this amendment brought by the Mover because we need a lot of these projects in our constituencies, especially the last mile connectivity with water. The Temporary Chairlady (Hon. Martha Wangari) : Kitayama.

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Hon. Temporary Chairlady, I am a Member of the Departmental Committee on Sports and Culture and I support this amendment because most of the activities which were affected were pensions. It is very important that we pay our pensions and gratuity in time to...

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Yes, I have a baby girl. (Applause)

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this important Bill.

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Thank you. My daughter will grow to become an important person in this world and nation. We love and respect women. Before I continue, I want to emphasise to this House that society must respect women. I was in the labour ward for four...

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Yes. Thank you so much for this recognition.

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Thank you, Hon Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to add my voice to this Bill. At the outset, I congratulate my brother, Mheshimiwa Kimilu, for coming up with such an important Bill. It may seem simple, but it is very important for...

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Hon. Speaker, I beg to give notice of the following Motion: THAT, aware that sports play an integral role in promoting cultural heritage, national identity, national development, the well-being of the people and sustenance of livelihoods, particularly of the youth; appreciating that Sessional Paper...

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker for giving me the opportunity to add my voice to this Motion, which I support. First, I congratulate His Excellency, the President for championing the candidature of Raila Amolo Odinga. This was not a matter based on any tribal...

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Yes, it is, Hon. Speaker. However, I am not sure whether Hon. Owen Baya is aware of what you requested him to do, even though he has clarified that he got what he is supposed to follow up on. Thank you, Hon. Speaker.

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) On a point of order, Hon. Speaker.

Hon. Charles Nguna (Mwingi West, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Without wasting much time, as this is a Procedural Motion, I second. (Question proposed) (Question put and agreed to)
