Njeri Maina

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Well, I thank the Hon. Chairman for responding. I take great exception to paragraph three where he says that a firearm discharged ammunition. Firearms do not discharge themselves. They do not have any robotic capacity. The policemen, who are supposed to guard the lives of Kenyans,...

Hon. Speaker, I do not think any Member or the Chairman is a ballistic reports expert, but I am kindly requesting that after 30 days, I get follow-up feedback from the Chairman on whether the report is complete and has been forwarded to the Directorate of Public Prosecutions (DPP) ,...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. (Hon. Zaheer Jhanda crossed the Floor without bowing to the Chair) Hon. Zaheer is trying to distract me, but I am very focused on representing Kenyans and the people of Kirinyaga County. I rise to issue a general statement regarding the rampant....

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 43 (1) , to issue a general statement regarding the rampant abductions and forced disappearance of Kenyan youth in the country. The Constitution of Kenya recognizes human rights as inherent and inviolable. However, in recent months,...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Order, Hon. Chairperson. There Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. It is insulting that, having made a general statement on abductions, to which the Chairperson admitted while responding, he goes ahead to say that I am practising opposition politics. I am simply defending...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to vehemently oppose this Motion on behalf of the great people of Kirinyaga. Does it not prick our conscience as a House that barely four months after passing the grossly unpopular Finance Bill, which the President himself declined to assent to, we are here...

Hon. Speaker, I would like the Hon. Member, who is my very good friend, to point out which Standing Order she rose on, that prohibits me from speaking on matters that have been controverted and are public information. We passed the Finance Bill which is a fact. (Loud consultations) Order,...

No, Hon. Speaker.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support this Bill. I stand here as a good example and beneficiary of the proceeds of coffee. My humble parents from Kirinyaga County used to farm or engage in coffee farming, and the proceeds took me through school. First, allow me to...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. We miss the point when we do not understand where the Petition is coming from. We passed a robust law on mental health in the last Parliament. Unfortunately, we have not had the capacity to fully implement the same. There is a joke that goes around...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. The framers of the Constitution of Kenya 2010 had no intention, whatsoever, to devolve corruption and the lack of service delivery. At the outset, their intention was very pure. What we have done with the gift of devolution is to abuse it. As I support...

Hon. Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44 (2) (c) , I rise to request for a statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Administration and Internal Security regarding the murder of Mr. Derrick Gachoki who had finished his secondary school education in 2023 and was...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. Governments exist in perpetuity. It is, therefore, in order to have the Public Seal in the custody of the Attorney General. Having it in the Office of the President would create a clear conflict of interest.I support.(Section 28 deleted)out be left out, put and agreed...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Hon. Millie Odhiambo is a very good senior lawyer and I wonder what is happening on the Floor of Parliament. We are here to learn as young Members. Hon. Temporary Speaker, I hereby second. Hon. Njeri Maina, you have the microphone for a specific purpose....

I second. (Question proposed) 21st March 2024 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 22 There is a point of order from Hon. Osoro.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the Committee findings. I specifically want to narrow down to the Alcoholic Drinks Control Fund for the Financial Year 2017/2018. It is quite unfortunate that my county is one of the most affected by the sale of prohibited alcohol. We must...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support and commend the Committee for this Report. It is not that 2.1 per cent of the institutions have complied, but the compliance level. Article 54 (2) of the Constitution is very clear. It says, ‘at the very least.’ This means that...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support the Chairman of the Budget and Appropriations Committee. I also congratulate him for a well-detailed report elaboration on the Floor of the august House. As a member of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs, I urge this House, as we...

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the Report by the Committee. This House owes a fiduciary duty to electorates. It is therefore important to examine our Medium-Term Debt Management Strategy to ensure that any monies are applied accordingly. The ideal situation is that the net external borrowing...
