Hon. Silvanus Osoro (South Mugirango, UDA) Hon. Deputy Speaker, this is in line with what Hon. Keynan has brought before this House. About four weeks ago, my driver had a very chilling experience with his first-born daughter. She got lost and has not been traced for the past four weeks....

Hon. Silvanus Osoro (South Mugirango, UDA) Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I join my colleagues in supporting the Committee’s Report on the nomination of Mr. Douglas Kanja Kirocho.

Hon. Silvanus Osoro (South Mugirango, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. As I was saying, during his tenure as a Member of Parliament, the constituency that he led happens to be very close to mine. The two constituencies share a very close boundary and a common school. At times, the people...

Hon. Silvanus Osoro (South Mugirango, UDA) Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I also rise to support the Report of the Committee. I want to single out some few nominees whom I watched and learnt something. The nomination of Hon. Ali Hassan Joho is an inspiration to many young people...

Hon. Silvanus Osoro (South Mugirango, UDA) Thank you very much, Hon. Deputy Speaker. In as much as the Constitution talks about Parliament as bicameral, each House has its own distinct roles. Anything that touches on the county governments goes to the Senate. Likewise, whatever touches on the national Government comes...
