What these numbers don’t measure
- Committee work
- Parliament publishes no committee attendance for either House, so nobody can count it — us included.
- Constituency work
- Funerals, harambees, schools, casework. Recorded nowhere we can read.
- Whether it worked
- We can count questions asked, not answers given.
- Speaking often isn’t speaking well. Use these to ask Paul Kahindi Katana better questions — not to grade them.

Asante Mhe. Spika kwa kunipatia nafasi hii. Viegezo vyote ambavyo Waziri amezungumzia ambavyo vinatumika kutenga maeneo magumu zaidi kuliko mengine kama kwa hali ya ukame, kutokuwa na nyumba, usalama na umeme viko ndani ya Eneo Bunge langu la Kaloleni. Jirani wangu pale Ganze, anazo shida sawia na Kaloleni; ilhali, wanapata...
Official Hansard sourceAhsante Mhe. Spika wa Muda kwa kunipa nafasi hii. Nataka niunge mkono Ripoti ya Kamati ya Kiidara ya Ardhi. Tume ya Ardhi inategemewa sana katika nchi yetu ili kutatua tatizo la mashamba nchini, haswa dhuluma za mashamba. Nchi hii imekuwa ikiona maskwota wengi haswa upande wa Pwani. Tunatarajia makomishna hawa...
Official Hansard sourceAsante, Mhe. Spika wa Muda. Hiki Kipengele ambacho tunarekibisha kilikuwepo, lakini twataka kukipatia nguvu zaidi. Kumekuwa na dhuluma za kistoria za mashamba, hususan kaatika eneo la Pwani. Mashamba ya watu wengi yamekuwa yakichukuliwa bila wao kujua. Sasa, Tume hii ya kitaifa ya mashamba, imepatiwa nguvu tena ya miaka mitano kuchunguzu...
Official Hansard sourceAsante, Mhe. Naibu Spika, kwa kunipatia nafasi hii kuchangia kuhusu ardhi hii. Wakaazi kuhangaishwa na masuala ya mashamba yamezidi sana, hasa sehemu za Pwani. Utakuta watu wamekaa katika mashamba yao kwa muda mrefu sana, lakini kwa sababu ya uzembe wa baadhi ya maafisa wa Serikali ambao wametwikwa jukumu la kusaidia...
Official Hansard sourceAsante, Mhe. Spika. Kwanza, ninataka nisahihishe kuwa mimi ni Mbunge wa Kaloleni na sio Ganze. Mbunge wa Ganze yuko hapa. Mwaka jana, niliuliza swali kuhusu sehemu zilizo na ugumu. Ulitoa mwelekeo wakati huo na ukamwambia Kiongozi wa Chama cha Walio Wengi alete majibu. Imekuwa zaidi ya miezi sita tangu useme...
Official Hansard sourceAhsante, Mhe. Spika. Najiunga na wenzangu kutoa rambirambi kwa niaba ya wakaazi wa Kaloleni kwa familia za Seneta Cheptumo na Mhe. Injendi. Mhe. Injendi alitetea sana mambo ya elimu. Pia, tumekuwa tukienda kanisa moja. Mimi na yeye ni Wakatoliki. Kila siku ya jumatano, tulikuwa tunaenda kanisani naye. Tunaiombea roho yake...
Official Hansard sourceAsante Mhe. Spika. Najiunga na wenzangu kumwomboleza mwandishi shupavu, Leonard Mambo Mbotela. Bwana Mbotela alikuwa kiungo muhimu na kielelezo bora kwa waandishi wa habari, nikiwa mmoja wao. Aliinua vipaji vingi sana vya waandishi, na uboreshaji wa uandishi katika nchi hii. Ingekuwa vyema kama watu wote ambao wametoa mchango mkubwa katika...
Official Hansard sourceThank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I also raised a similar request in March. The Speaker directed the Leader of the Majority Party to consult with the Ministry, so that they could give a comprehensive report on why some constituencies were left out yet they are supposed to be included and...
Official Hansard sourceHon. Deputy Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order 4 (2) (c) , I rise to request for a statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Tourism and Wildlife on elephant invasion in Kayafungo in Kaloleni. Kayafungo is a Sacred Giriama Shrine, that is set within a natural forest field...
Official Hansard sourceAhsante, Mhe. Spika. Swala la mihadarati ni swala nyeti sana. Zamani, madawa ya kulevya yalikuwa yanapatikana mijini. Kufikia sasa, yameingia mpaka mashinani. Wanaoumia zaidi ni watoto wa shule ambao siku hizi wameanza kujiua kwa sababu wakila madawa ya kulevya, kufikiria kwao kunakuwa duni. Tujiulize swali moja. Huku Kenya, hatuna shamba...
