Nelson Jack Wanami Wamboka

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. (Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah spoke off record) Hon. Temporary Speaker, the Leader of the Majority Party is pronouncing my name loudly. Hon. Temporary Speaker, I support this Motion. I am happy that the Members of the Budget and Appropriations Committee have now realised their mistakes. I...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, let me finish my contribution. Hon. Temporary Speaker, Hon. Pukose did not understand what I was talking about. I was neither talking about Professor Nyong'o's hospital nor complaining about the upgrading of the hospital in Bondo. I was just saying that in considering upgrading hospitals, other facilities...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. I support this funding to the National Police Service. Kenya is still far from international standards. As we proceed, I beseech this House to continue giving more resources to this department. This is because at the end of the day we need security. We are...

Hon. Temporary Chairlady, we really appreciate the Government’s efforts in trying to bring services closer to mwananchi. So many administrative units have been created, and I laud the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Administration and Internal Affairs for this. These administrative units need a lot of resources. I applaud...

I am the acting Leader of the Minority Party. In that capacity, Hon. Speaker, I second the Motion by my counterpart on the other side. (Several Members stood along the gangways)

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise on a point of order under Standing Order 83 as read together with Standing Orders 217 and 232. It is on a matter for which I seek clarification. Indeed, you ruled and directed the Liaison Committee to deal with Budget issues a couple of...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I am well guided on the issue of the Liaison Committee and similarly on the issue of NG-CDF. However, there is a worrying trend that even Kenya Rural Roads Authority (KeRRA) funds have been revised downwards. You may not be aware of that. We will bring...

Hon. Speaker, we will need your direction because we need to be very firm. If CoG is using surrogates, we can also surrogate. Hon Speaker, why would KeRRA be revising these figures downwards? Since the case is in court, why can the status quo not remain? Thank you, Hon. Speaker.

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Firstly, I will speak as an elder from Luhya Community. (Loud consultations) Let us keep the Speaker out of this issue. If we speak about the position of the Speaker, we will start taking sides; which will not be good. Secondly, parties went for elections. The...

Hon. Speaker, whereas I have no personal issue with anybody on that list, is the Member in order to mislead the House by saying that the list reflects diversity when we have a Chairman and Vice Chairman coming from the same region? Hon. Speaker, is the Member in order to...

Hon. Speaker, I appreciate your ruling on statements. A few days ago, you ruled in regard to my statement to the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Labour on matters Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) , when he tried to dilly-dally and cheekily bring the needed answers. You ordered that he...

Hon. Speaker, those institutions of Government must also respect the rulings that are delivered by the Speaker. You had directed two weeks ago that they bring the statement. Two days ago, you still directed the same. It is high time that we must have a policy where Government institutions respect...

Hon. Speaker, I would like to bring to the attention of the House that I submitted a question to the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Labour concerning irregular employment practices at the Kenya Revenue

Yes. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I want to thank the House for the opportunity to serve and deal with that big problem in our universities. It is the commitment of the Committee that I chair that we are going to try to ensure that we put these institutions back...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Indeed, receiving such compliments from a ranking Member like yourself is not a mean feat. I want the House to also note that as at now we are at seven reports and in terms of performance, I think we have done very well. As a...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I am always very committed to the business of this House. I was with the delegation from South Sudan, the Chairman of the Public Accounts Committee and his team. I am very sorry to have delayed. Hon. Temporary Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Hon. Temporary Speaker, about three months ago, I requested for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Defence concerning recruitment in Bumula Constituency. That debate was so heated in this House because more Members and, therefore, more constituencies, were...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

Hon. Deputy Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order 259D (2) , I rise with a heavy heart to pay a glowing tribute to the late Hon. Suleiman Kasuti Murunga, former Member of Parliament for Kimilili Constituency, a distinguished statesman and a patriot. The Hon. Suleiman Murunga passed away at the age...
