Wilberforce Ojiambo Oundo

Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM) On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker.

Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM) Hon. Deputy Speaker, as has been the custom in this House since the beginning of the 13th Parliament, a Cabinet Secretary normally comes to answer questions and requests for statements on Wednesday afternoons. The Cabinet Secretary for the Ministry of Roads and Transport was...

Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. When I hear the story of Moi University, my heart bleeds. I left the University of Nairobi to come here. We had challenges but we managed to weather the storm. It also happens that my second born graduated from...

Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I beg to move that the Land Control Bill (National Assembly Bill No.39 of 2023) be now read a Second Time. For the record, this Bill was published in 2022. It was first read in February 2022, but as was the...

Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM) Again, as my colleague mwalimu raised issues, exactly what kind of report are we envisaging? What we have here and what the country has does not lead anywhere. What kind of report are we envisaging to be submitted to the county assembly? What is...

Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM) I totally concur or agree with the Committee. At times, county governments overreach themselves. The small departments in counties, which are without value to the lives of the people should not be involved in very complicated matters like these ones. Once it has gotten...

Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM)Yes, let me conclude.

Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Let me take this opportunity to sincerely thank Hon. Wangwe for following up through with this Bill. It is a stage which seems to be like the end of the long journey. The collapse of the sugarcane industry in...

Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM)Under what Standing Order?

Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM) It is good that Hon. Kiplagat has a mood meter that measures the mood of the House. I will conclude with the issue of the sugarcane catchment areas and the process of appointing or electing members to the Sugar Board. I see here that...

Hon (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM) That is why I wanted to tell Hon. (Dr) Pukose that we will present in the Committee of the Whole House and let the House decide. Hon. Temporary Speaker, on many occasions, I have had to accompany my Governor when he went to meet...

Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute. First of all, let me admit that I am not an expert in ICT. When the first mobile telephone calls came to this country, I was already working. I was mesmerised at...

Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I want him to listen carefully because this is a policy and business matter. I also totally agree with him. The speed at which we process the so-called Members' Bills in this Parliament is annoyingly slow. 16th October 2024 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY...

Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I would not want to complain. If I do, I can even sleep without food. Hon. Temporary Speaker, since Independence, we have had three critical goals: To reduce poverty, ignorance and diseases. Whether we have achieved that up to...

Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM)Allow me to complete.

Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM) I am sure Dr. Gogo wants to inform Dr. Pukose...

Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM) Does she want to inform me or Dr. Pukose?

Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM) I do not mind being informed by...

Hon (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo (Funyula, ODM) Thank you. As I wind up, we also probably need to tell the Senate that this National Assembly has people who can understand and read the Constitution and tie it up. So, we do not fight over things that do not belong to us,...
