Atandi Samuel Onunga

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this important piece of legislation. I want to support this Bill but also fault the Departmental Committee on Transport and Infrastructure for failing to do its work and using the submissions of NTSA to conclude this Bill....

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for the opportunity to speak on this Motion. The Fish Marketing Authority is a very important authority for the fishing sector. Unfortunately, it has no role because Kenya produces about 400,000 tonnes of fish against the consumption of about 600,000 tonnes and so, the marketing...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to mourn with my colleagues. On behalf of my family and the people that I represent, I would like to send my condolences to the family of Hon. Kulow and to the people of Banissa. I was in the last Parliament...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for this opportunity. From the word go, as a House, what we need to focus on when we are discussing agreements of this nature is to understand the philosophy behind these agreements. If you look at these agreements, they are heavily tilted in favour of...

On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. Hon. Atandi, what is your point of order? Hon. Speaker, I rise on Standing Order 250 as read together with the Speaker’s Rules 1, 2, 3... Just hold on. Hon. Speaker, Standing Order 250 does not anticipate a situation where a stranger is...

Hon Speaker, I can say something on this. Can I go ahead? Yes. I have given you the Floor. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I would like to support this Motion on the Division of Revenue Bill. I also want to say that, basically, in outlining the sharing of resources between...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. Now that you know that I am not very good in Kiswahili, I thought you were going to deny me the opportunity, but thank you very much. This matter is very serious. It is something which has been ongoing for...

Hon. Temporary Speaker...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, thank you very much. Sometimes I wonder why you people want to force me to believe in your theories. You know very well that the fact that you have been sworn in as the President of Kenya does not mean you will be there forever. You can...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, the Constitution anticipates a situation where Parliament, Judiciary and Executive are all independent institutions, but in practice, this is not the situation now. The presidency of the Supreme Court has been reported marketing bottom-up policies of this regime. This is something that has been reported in the...

Thank you very much, for your wisdom of allowing me to make my point. As I wind up, this country must be awake and we must know that there are some things that we cannot play with. This question of gays and lesbianism is a question that I will describe...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, I rise to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Information, Communication and the Digital Economy the following question: Could the Cabinet Secretary -

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I would like to comment on the second Petition on the gazettement of Rachuonyo North Sub- County as a hardship area. This is a very viable Petition. However, I urge the Committee that is going to handle this matter to benefit from the work that has...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for this opportunity to contribute to this very important Motion. This is one of the most consequential Motions that I have seen on the Floor of this House by a Member of this House. This Motion has been presented by a Member from the Minority...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I wish the Member would just listen so that she could understand the flow of thoughts that I am trying to present on the Floor of the House. If you take some more minutes, you will realise that the point I have raised on the...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, unfortunately, I do not come from the same school of thought as the other Members and neither do we come from the same ideological framework. Hon. Atandi, I insist you substantiate the statement you made by telling us how many have been murdered by this particular situation....

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I can give you a list of Kenyans who died and were buried last weekend. Is that what you want? (Loud consultations) Order, Member for Alego Usonga! You shall substantiate how many people this regime has killed or murdered, or apologise and withdraw. The point I am...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, it is the duty of the Government to ensure that lives are protected. Order! Order, Hon. Atandi! We insist that you withdraw your statement and then proceed with your contribution. Hon. Temporary Speaker, the right to live is constitutional and must be protected by the Government of...

By reference, the Government has contributed to the deaths of poor innocent people by failing to provide for them basic needs like health, food, water and the rest. I am not saying that there is gun that has been used to kill Kenyans. Hon. Temporary Speaker, allow me to continue....

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I beg to second. To add to what the Chairperson of the Budget and Appropriations Committee has said, we have about three months before the end of this financial year. We have already started discussing the Budget Policy Statement (BPS) . We first of all need...

Hon. Temporary Chairperson, I wanted Hon. Makau to explain further the intention of increasing this development expenditure. The Temporary Chairperson (Hon. Omboko Milemba) : Hon. Makau, that is straight to you.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairperson. Hon. Pukose has spoken for me. Members need beautiful offices to operate in and serve Kenyans. We however, need to caution PSC that they are running so many programmes. They start new programmes before they finish the ones that are already ongoing. The case in...

Yes. Hon. Speaker. Indeed, the Petitioners have attempted to seek justice through the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) , but this has not been successful. That is the reason why they have asked me, as their Member of Parliament, to bring this matter before this House. Well, it is up...
