Johana Ngeno Kipyegon

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity to convey my gratitude to God, the Almighty, who created us and for allowing us to live up to this moment. I also want to give my gratitude to the people of Emurua Dikirr, who...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also wish to weight in a little bit on this issue of changing the name of the Authority to Service. Someone once said that you can change the forest, but the monkeys will still remain the same....

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Of course, you are not a madam but a mister. I do not know where Kanini Kega is getting those fishy ideas from. I wish to make my statement to this Motion on the last Budget by the Jubilee...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Hon. Deputy Speaker, I used to read in books that love is blind. Surely, this Hon. Member is making that statement true. When the former Prime Minister fell in love with the current President of the Republic of Kenya, they became so blind that...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Hon. Deputy Speaker, I was interrupted by the Members. It is not in my preserve to talk about other people. It was the Members who interrupted me. For clarity purposes…

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) For clarity purposes, I just want to say that I meant to fall in political love. I did not mean otherwise. I also wish to state that I never meant that the Members of that Committee who made this Budget made a mistake. I...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Hon. Deputy Speaker, I do not wish to be interrupted because I will not regain my minutes if they are taken by Members.

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) … (Spoke off-record)

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) I had not contributed for two minutes. These people have robbed me of my time.

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Bwana Naibu Spika, wacha hata nizungumze kwa Kiswahili.

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Hon. Deputy Speaker, when I say that this Government has robbed Kenyans, that includes those I represent in this House. I am not referring to any Member here. If you cannot see that the Government has robbed you, keep quiet. I am talking on...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Hon. Deputy Speaker… May 25, 2022 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 27

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Hon. Deputy Speaker, I am going to contribute. Please, allow me.

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Hon. Deputy Speaker, please, warn Members not to interrupt me when I am contributing. My contribution is based on my position as a Member of Parliament meant to oversee Government not other Members of Parliament. My contribution is based on this constitutional provision because...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I also want to get these clarifications: May 25, 2022 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 30

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Yes. The Temporary Deputy Speaker (Hon. Christopher Omulele) : Proceed. Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to weigh in on the same matter. I wish to join my colleagues in resisting the impending...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) I think it is unfortunate that, maybe, the Member misquoted me. I wish he visits The Hansard. I said: “If a Committee of this House made recommendations that led to the arrest of a Member who was jailed for 70 years and above, who...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to mourn a great icon, and the greatest President who ever lived in this country. Even as we look out there, where the great man is lying in state, we remember him for many things. One of the...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU)(Spoke off record)

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Hon. Speaker, I think I have attended a meeting where you were not the chair at that moment. I have even gone for a trip that was organized by this Committee. I just wanted to mention something especially on comments which some of the...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Hon. Speaker, I was uncomfortable with some of the information that Members were trying to bring. When you go back to do selection, do not remove some of us basically because of that. The idea of appointing troublesome students to positions of prefects shows...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Speaker for also allowing me an opportunity to contribute to this particular matter. I was once a Member of the NG-CDF Committee of this House. We would go round the country and assess the status of NG- CDF projects. There was...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute to the appointment of a commissioner to the SRC. The SRC is a fundamental Commission in our nation. It looks into the issue of our salaries by doing proper analyses of...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I too wish to support the Petitioners on this idea of dams and projects which are causing environmental degradation in our areas. When we are doing many projects in this country, there is always an environmental assessment which is done by...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for allowing me this opportunity to make myself heard on this particular issue. I think the introduction of Uwezo Fund, Biashara Kenya Fund, Women Enterprise Fund and Youth Enterprise Development Fund was specifically meant to look at how...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me an opportunity to also contribute to the Public Procurement and Disposal February 2, 2022 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 26 Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU)(Amendment) Act. It is intended to cure some of the bottlenecks that...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to also make my contribution on this particular Amendment Bill. God gave us a very clean environment. We are the ones who have made the environment toxic and more dangerous. It is our...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. You know I was transiting. I was going through a transitional period in my life. Therefore, I had to take each and every step slowly. I thank you and also say that I support this Motion. It is not especially...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Let me speak to this briefly because Members wish to discuss the next report. I want to say a few words, but let me start by congratulating the Members of the Committee and reiterate that it is our...

Hon. Kipyegon Ng’eno (Emurua Dikirr, KANU) Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, my great friend never understood what debt is and how the economy runs. What I meant is that President Moi never left debts to the people of this country, but he left a country that was in tatters economically. We...
