OKELO, JARED ODOYO

Hon. Jared Okello (Nyando, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. It is true that we have problems with transformers.

Hon. Jared Okello (Nyando, ODM) Hon. Temporary Chairman, we are making progress. The Chairperson was deeply engaged when we proposed to align the subsidy with the fishing gear price. If we say, for instance, that it will be 50 per cent of the price, that needs to be captured. Otherwise,...

Hon. Jared Okello (Nyando, ODM) I thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. In the same breath, allow me to support this Bill as advanced by my brother, Hon. Anthony Oluoch. This Bill is timely to the effect that we have very many people languishing either in jails or subjected...

Hon. Jared Okello (Nyando, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. In the same spirit, I also wish to encourage our young children to remain focused. Discipline is everything.

Hon. Jared Okello (Nyando, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I thank you for the opportunity. I would want to correct the notion that only those who oppose the Government speak for the people. Hon. Temporary Speaker, when a government is formed, be it those who voted for that Government or those...

Hon. Jared Okello (Nyando, ODM) Hon. Speaker, I thank you in a very special way, not just for giving me an opportunity to speak, but also to commend you for the intent you have expressed to bring the Social Health Authority (SHA) and teachers together over the matter on boarding...

Hon. Jared Okello (Nyando, ODM) I thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. This is a very serious and grave allegation that has been presented before this House and yet, it appears to lack cogent evidence. You are a lawyer of great repute, Hon. Deputy Speaker, and you understand that issues concerning...

Hon. Jared Okello (Nyando, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. I support the amendment. I just returned from a coffee conference in San Diego, USA.

Hon. Jared Okello (Nyando, ODM) Correct. That is the guidance I was seeking from you.

Hon. Jared Okello (Nyando, ODM) Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker for the opportunity. It is important to underscore that outside the Budget and Appropriations Committee with a membership of 25, this is the second well-represented Committee that we have in the House, with 21 Members. This feeds into...

Hon. Jared Okello (Nyando, ODM) Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I want to restrict myself to the classification of areas classified as hardship. This is the second time that our good Prime Cabinet Secretary has come before us to shed light on this most disturbing matter. I want to...
