I, the undersigned, on behalf of the concerned residents of Mwendo wa Panya Village in...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. This subject is very interesting. As much as Taita Taveta is green, I am very sure that Kwale is very dry. I am a victim. The challenge is that most teachers want to be transferred to the hardship areas leaving the greener areas very vulnerable. The...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The matter that is being discussed is more serious than the way it looks. It is NG-CDF. Yes. The matter of NG-CDF is more serious than the way it looks. A number of Members of Parliament have received a backlash from their people out there who...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I am aware about all that has been presented. I want this House to know that this is a family which has lived there for over 60 years, and they have been burying their dead on the two acres they had been allocated by the...

The children from that homestead are no longer going to school and the family is stationed outside their house.

Asante, Mhe. Spika, kwa nafasi hii ya kuchangia Mswada huu ulioko mbele ya Bunge. Mimi sijaokoka, na nimesikia wenzangu kila wakichangia hapa, wanataja sehemu fulani za Bibilia ambazo zinaambatana na matamshi 8th October 2024 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 39 ambayo nataka kuyazungumzia. Kweli kuna Mbinguni na kuna hela. Nafikiria Rigathi Gachagua...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I am a Member of the Committee.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I am under guidance from my Chairman, who is in Eldoret, together with the Vice-Chairman. Apparently, he was aware about this question and we know what is going on. I do not want to mitigate on this matter, but the Chairman has promised to give...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. As a parent – and I am sure the Member is a mother – I know how sensitive this matter is. The problem does not just affect her constituency alone. Let me commit that the Departmental Committee on Energy will respond in a maximum of...

Yes, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I have committed to bringing it within one week.

Much obliged, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. Yes, Hon. Chonga, what is out of order? Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Parliament gives us an opportunity to learn more about language. Is it in order for the Member to use both Kiswahili and English? She says nataka kupongeza ile ‘vetting… Vetting is...

On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. (Loud consultations) Yes, Hon. Chonga. What is it? Hon. Speaker, I know my sister is a first- timer. But we know that we either express ourselves in English or Kiswahili, but not mix the two languages. If that is the trajectory that we...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Yes, Hon. Member. What is your point of order? Is that Hon. Ken Chonga? Hon. Temporary Speaker, I am wondering whether the Standing Orders of this House allow us to continue with this business. Looking at how empty the chairs inside here...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. It is Ken Chonga not Ben Chonga.

Hon. Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order 44 (2) (c) , I wish to request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Lands regarding irregular allocation of a parcel of land in Gongoni Village, Junju Ward in Kilifi South Constituency. Indigenous people of Gongoni were displaced from...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. From the outset, I stand to oppose this Bill. The fact that the drafters of this Bill were thinking of taxing bread, milk, and rubber means that they never had good intentions for Kenyans. This Bill is obnoxious, 20th June 2024 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 15 diabolical,...

On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. What is out of order, Hon. Member? You have the microphone. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Unfortunately, for the better part of this year, I have been unwell and have not been attending House sittings. Pole. Yesterday, when I looked at the list of...
