Musau Robert Mbui

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to second this Motion. When dealing with regulations, there are several considerations that the Committee on Delegated Legislation must make. First, we ensure that the regulations are constitutionally sound by checking them against the Constitution of Kenya, 2010....

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I take this opportunity to also pay tribute to the late Rt Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga, Kenya's biggest defender of human rights and the rule of law. I got the news of Baba's passing on when I was in London with...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Parliament is under attack. If you go to social media, read newspapers and watch television, it is this House that is continuously under attack. That has gone to the level of funds that go to the people that we represent, specifically...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The issue raised by the Hon. Leader of the Minority Party is important. Since 2010 or 2013, when the new bicameral system began, we have witnessed numerous court cases. There appears to be an attempt to belittle the House of the...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. My question was on drugs and substance abuse. The Cabinet Secretary has mentioned an issue that has raised another question. He kept mentioning muguka and khat. Is muguka or khat a drug or a cash crop as defined in law? The...

Hon. Robert Mbui, (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I do sympathise, of course, with the rights of people being trampled on and the property being destroyed. I would like to ask the Cabinet Secretary - because he has been on record on those matters - how he will deal...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Hon. Speaker, on the answer to the issue of police training, the Cabinet Secretary has tried to explain that the curriculum promotes both the punitive and adversarial approach towards the public and also a rehabilitative and correctional approach. I beg to differ. I think the...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Hon. Speaker, I rise to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and National Administration the following question: Could the Cabinet Secretary ―

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani,WDM) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the County Allocation of Revenue Bill (Senate Bill No.9 of 2025) . As has been said, after this House passed the Division of Revenue Bill, which determines the amount that will be given out to the counties,...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) I have seen that there are almost ten questions to the same Cabinet Secretary from Members across the political divide, and they are very serious. Several times, you have said that it is one of the Ministries with the most questions asked in this House....

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Yes, Hon. Speaker. I would just like to confirm something. I have a question that was also to be responded to.

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) That is why it is very irregular when a Chairman of the Committee is the one responding on behalf of the Executive. The report we have received is not true. They do not support transport, buying of uniforms, accommodation, or meals. Additionally, every time money...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I think the Cabinet Secretary was very sly in avoiding to come to the House. Because he realised that …

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Hon. Speaker, Members cannot be named without a substantive Motion. He has named my Senator. He must withdraw that!

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) We laid the wreaths at the fence, on the barbed wire that barricades Parliament. How does a Member then wake up and say that it is wrong for my party leader to commemorate and mourn those who were killed across the country? Let us not...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) You said they should not come to Parliament.

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Hon. Speaker, the Leader of the Minority Party knows we also lost people from our region during those demonstrations. This is not about tribe. We have to be careful not to trivialise a serious issue. My concern is that this regime curtails rights that are...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Hon. Speaker, the Motion is very clear. It does not talk about 60 people who were killed last year, and 10 people who were killed yesterday. It only talks about the destruction of property. It is very important to be careful about this issue.

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I also condemn, in the strongest terms possible, the destruction of property and infrastructure. However, we must be careful. When you look at the way this Motion is worded, we seem more concerned about damaged property. We are not talking about...
