Hon. (Dr.) Otiende Amollo (Rarieda, ODM) Thank you, Hon Speaker. I would like to comment on Hon. Sankok’s Petition. First, on the face of it, it appears to breach Standing Order No.220 (1) (b) . Second, in so far as it appears to be a Petition not presented on behalf...

Hon. (Dr.) Otiende Amollo (Rarieda, ODM) Hon. Speaker, land is emotive and very sensitive in this country. It is true that there are instances and pockets where land injustice is yet to be remedied. I do not support the Petition in the form in which it was brought. We have...

Hon. (Dr.) Otiende Amollo (Rarieda, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I am wading into this debate rather reluctantly except to say something on the proposed amendment. I have looked at them and I think most of them are positive, but there are about four or five distinct areas that require...

Hon. (Dr.) Otiende Amollo (Rarieda, ODM) Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I rise under Standing Order 95. Seeing that everyone rising on their feet supports the Motion, I move that the mover be called upon to reply and we pass the nominee. Those saying no, you risk having some Members opposing...

Hon. (Dr.) Otiende Amollo (Rarieda, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I support the spirit and context of the Petition, not necessarily the conclusion. I think the conclusion is what the Committee must examine. While it is a good a thing to have more bodies regulate the environment, it is also...
