Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, the real Finance Bill has now arrived in Parliament in line with your Communication.

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) As you will remember a ‘Finance Bill’ has been circulating over the past two months. People have been discussing it in public forums claiming that there is over taxation. I want to urge Kenyans from the Floor of this House that the real Finance...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I second. (Question proposed)

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Kabisa, Hon. Speaker. You took me to Malakisi in 2005 so that I could interact with the public. A whole governor stood in his place, addressed a gathering of Kenyans and said that other Kenyans must be discriminated against. He is a former Provincial...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) You are right, Hon. Speaker. They are stateless. They are worse than minorities. People only realise the enjoyment of a right when they lose it. There are also people in this country who face a lot of discrimination. There are Kenyans who are unable...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, firstly, I congratulate Hon. Bwire for taking this bold step of bringing to this House people who are marginalised and minorities in his constituency. This is what real representation is. Congratulations on the work you have done. This is how you represent...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) My teacher, who is the Speaker, has taught me that it cannot originate from anywhere else other than the National Assembly. Bills concerning counties can originate from the National Assembly and the Senate. It also said that the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF)...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. As Members are aware, this has been a very contentious Bill. Yesterday, after the quorum was raised by none other than myself, the Speaker called for a meeting in his office with the leadership of Parliament. We discussed the matter...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) The judgement is in public and anyone can access and read it. It is no longer a secret. Even this county government issue can go to the Supreme Court. I am sure it will declare the position. Please, we want to develop our country,...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) His name is Hon. Nakimbia. Anakimbia tu. He is just running everywhere. I was taken aback. I know what discriminated people go through in that region. Many children in northern Kenya have finished their education in colleges and university, but they cannot get employment...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Thank you. I stand to second the Value-Added Tax (Amendment) Bill, (National Assembly Bill No.11 of 2025) . This is a very small amendment that is rectifying what happened in the Tax (Amendment) Act that we passed in December. It is very controversial, but...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) I stand to raise an issue on whether we have Quorum in the House to discuss this, Bill.

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I apologise to Hon. Wamuchomba. I was soliciting and lobbying for her that in the event that the Wamunyoro bus gets punctured, she should get a soft landing by becoming an ambassador in charge of Githunguri and Kimende areas. (Hon. Kimani...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I have heard what the Leader of the Majority Party has told me. However, Hon. Wamuchomba is an iron lady. I cannot withstand Hon. Wamuchomba being out of office. If she is so strong now when she is in office, what...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) No, Hon. Temporary Speaker. This is far from it. This is about other issues. I want to see a list of 10 diplomatic appointments having a minimum of six or seven career diplomats. We can then add three failed politicians and civil servants to...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Even the two late presidents, Daniel Toroitich Arap Moi and Mwai Kibaki never did this. This issue of recycling people the way you recycle waste in Dandora started with the Jubilee Party. This culture must stop. These people were already serving in high offices....

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Leader of the Majority Party, there is no Broad-Based Government on this one. (Laughter)(Laughter)

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, let me just contribute although I did not want to. I oppose the Motion because we should not recycle people who have served in very high offices by giving them other offices. When will career diplomats get chances to serve in...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I second. I would like to say that the County Governments Additional Allocations Bill is an important Bill. You may remember that in the old days, the National Treasury used to give counties money in form of conditional grants, but now...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) In conclusion, I hope the Kenyans who have been given this chance of serving us will do a good job. They are going to very important stations in terms of business, international relations, and cultural and technological exchanges. In this country, we as politicians...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) In the spirit of diplomacy, international and national relations, the Leader of Majority Party, Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah is the undisputed kingpin of Kiambu County. I must put that on record.

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, you could hear as you read that name that Members of Parliament were shocked. They were wondering how someone with that kind of name found himself on the Floor of this House to be approved as a Principal Secretary. You can...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, you do not know which one she is staying in. These people have ten homes. As we speak, Farah has 40 homes. Anyway, this is a great man. He will help the country. I urge the House to support his nomination.

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) No! He has two homes. He has one there and one here. You cannot know the one in which the mother is staying. She could be in that one. (Laughter)

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I thank the Departmental Committee on Transport and Infrastructure. If there is a committee that has done a thorough vetting job this time, then it is this one. They have looked at every aspect of this matter. You can see them...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I would like to support the Third Reading of the Anti-Money Laundering and Combating of Terrorism Financing Laws (Amendment) Bill.

Member spoke off-record) He is saying it is a broad-based government and even his physical appearance is broad- based.(Laughter)

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, you remember we vetted another nominee whom the House rejected. This is the second nominee. If you asked me, the Cabinet Secretary for Gender should be a man because gender cuts across. I think a man would have served the interests...
