Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central WDM-K) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I also support this Bill. There are some fundamental questions which we must ask ourselves as a House relating to the performance of the Senate. Our Constitution clearly states that the Senate exists to serve the interests of counties....

Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. The Professor has just taken words from my mouth because that is what I wanted to say. We have the Bill with us. Why not read Clause 5 and see whether it provides for what Duale wants? If...

Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. From the outset, I thank the Almighty God for the far he has brought me. I also thank him for giving me parents who were able to do what was expected of them and push me through the...

Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Chairman. I also support this amendment. I want to give an example of my own county where the governor has the minority in the assembly and they form the government. I think it makes a lot of sense to have...

Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Hon. Chairman, I think this amendment is quite important for this House. In the past and especially the 12th Parliament, we saw a number of committee chairpersons requesting for additional time to sort out some of these issues. Where there is no time, they...

Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Hon. Deputy Chairman, the challenge with this amendment is that when you are seated there, how do you determine the person who rises first? I am on this side and Hon. Wanga is on the other side. If we all stand up, how do...

Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Hon. Deputy Chairman, I like the way you are now putting it. Articles published by some media houses are very well researched by known scholars. I wish I would have said that we allow some room for verification so that if I quote a...

June 2, 2022 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 46

Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. When I listen to some of the things that we push forward to Kenyans when we are in this House, they degrade this House. On a serious note, I have been getting a card every year and I...

Hon. Mulu Makali (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, can I go to the next one? This one is too short. (Laughter)

Hon. Mulu Makali (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I support the supply of resources to these departments. It would be important to note that the Nairobi Metropolitan Services (NMS) contract is coming to an end in the course of the year. I hope the resources provided are just...

Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. As I support the supply to this important commission, it is important to observe that a lot of uniformed officers are doing jobs which should be done by civilians. How I wished that we provided more resources to...

Hon. (Dr.) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I join my colleagues in appreciating this Bill and what it intends to do. We have international instruments as well as our local laws, which support the issue of disability. Any time we discuss...

Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this important Bill as a member of the Committee that discussed it. What is being proposed is to come up with a population database which will capture information relating to our populace....

Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I am not the Vice Chairperson but a Member of the Mediation Committee. The Vice Chairperson, Hon. Kanini Kega, has requested that I stand in for him in moving this important Motion. Hon. Speaker, I beg to move – THAT,...

Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I take this opportunity to second this important Supplementary Budget Report. I appreciate the work done by all Members of Parliament, more so the departmental committees’ chairpersons. It was not easy preparing the Supplementary Budget this year. As a Member...

Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. With those three minutes, let me elaborate on the primary source of data. I wish the departmental committee chairpersons listen to me. What happens when we get the supplementary budget is that we send its report to the departmental committees....

Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to join my colleagues and the Speaker of the National Assembly of Kenya who at the same time is the March 23, 2022 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 2 Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K)Chairperson of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association...

Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I am sorry because my intervention button is not working. I want to make one observation. I like your proposal that we move the debate to tomorrow. However, I really urge the Members to take time and read the Report....

Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker for also giving me this opportunity to contribute to this important Bill. I want to start by thanking the Committee for coming up with these important amendments, more so, bearing in mind that the regulations were nullified by...

Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The reason I wanted to raise a matter before the Motion was seconded is that I thought we were wasting the House’s time. (Loud consultations) March 1, 2022 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 29 Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K)Even though it...

Hon. Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM-K) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this important Motion. The MDTS is a very important document basically because, as a country, we are operating in an environment where we spend more than we are able to generate locally. This document...
