Chrisantus Wamalwa Wakhungu

Hon. Chrisantus Wakhungu (Kiminini, FORD-K) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. It says experience is the best teacher and what Hon. Duale was trying to put across was actually advisory, particularly to the new Members. I am saying this because I was in the last Parliament and I brought quite a...

Hon. Chrisantus Wakhungu (Kiminini, FORD-K) I remember the issues of school ranking last time. This House made a resolution and Matiang’i went ahead and violated it. After we petitioned, I thank God that last time schools were ranked as far as the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) is concerned....

Hon. Chrisantus Wakhungu (Kiminini, FORD-K) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. On behalf of the great people of Kiminini Constituency and Trans-Nzoia County at large, we want to send our message of condolences to the family of the late Sen. Ben Okello Oluoch. It is a trying moment for the family and...

Hon. Chrisantus Wakhungu (Kiminini, Ford-K) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The Member for Laikipia is still learning and is a first timer. Obviously, there is no way Hon. Ichung’wah can second this Motion. You are not going to dictate what I say. As much as we want to discuss matters of...

Hon. Chrisantus Wakhungu (Kiminini, FORD-K) Absolutely: It was very wrong. I want to justify why this Bill is very important. The Temporary Deputy Speaker (Hon. (Ms.) Soipan Tuya) : Okay. Go ahead. Hon. Chrisantus Wakhungu (Kiminini, FORD-K) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. This is a very important Bill. We...

Hon. Wakhungu On a point of order, Hon. Speaker.

Hon. Wakhungu Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I have gone through this Report carefully. First and foremost, I want to thank the Departmental Committee of Health. Within a short period, they managed to come up with a report. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are very clear in terms of universal healthcare....

Hon. Wakhungu Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. As I contribute on this, I lost one of my constituents who was… The Temporary Deputy Speaker (Hon. Omulele) : Hon. Chris Wamalwa, just one second. I think I need to address myself to contestations by Hon. Abdisalan. When every Member walks...

Hon. Wakhungu Thank you, Hon. Speaker. First, I thank Hon. (Dr.) Eseli for bringing up this matter. Indeed, the purpose of my Bill was on the issue of political parties funding. The current sharing formula is based on the presidential votes, but we wanted to provide an alternative where if...

Hon. Wakhungu Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Sessional Paper on climate financing. I want to remind the Hon. Member for Buuri who has just spoken that I am one of the very objective legislators in this House. We legislate objectively for the good of...

Hon. Wakhungu Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support. (Loud consultations)(Loud consultations)

Hon. Wakhungu Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Actually, the point I am raising is very important particularly to those Members who are going to chair committees. The success of any committee has a positive correlation with the commitment of the chairperson. I noted that in the last Parliament, Hon. Adan Keynan...

Hon. Wakhungu Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to oppose this Procedural Motion. Standing Order No. 120 is very clear. I am in concurrence with whatever the Leader of the Majority Party has said, but we are looking at where the country is. As I speak, I look at...

Hon. Wakhungu Hon. Deputy Speaker, you should defend me from the tyranny of numbers.

Hon. Wakhungu For heaven sake, Hon. Deputy Speaker, I am an “A” student and that is why I am speaking on the Procedural Motion. I am not going to the merits. It is unfortunate you allowed the Leader of the Majority Party to go to the merits, which was actually...

Hon. Wakhungu No.

Hon. Wakhungu I never said that. Let me clarify.

Hon. Wakhungu Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I want the honourable Member for Kikuyu to listen keenly. He has always had a problem of listening. I want to repeat. What I said is that Article 118 of the Constitution gives room for public participation and for people to participate. There...

Hon. Wakhungu Let me move on. I want to continue. The rule of thumb dictates that you cannot change the rules of a game during half-time. This ruling was done for the interest of the greater Kenyan community - the public. I want to relate the aspect of the Supreme...

Hon. Wakhungu Hon. Deputy Speaker, with due respect, in our Standing Orders there is something called relevance. The Leader of the Majority Party has been in this Parliament for three terms. It seems he has not learnt that you must speak to the relevancy. Whatever you are talking about in...

Hon. Wakhungu Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Is Hon. Cecily Mbarire in order? The gracious lady lost as a governor of Embu in the nominations. Is she in order to refer to me as a person who is getting instructions from somewhere? I am here upright. I speak what is...

Hon. Wakhungu Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. As I support this Motion for Adjournment, first and foremost, allow me to congratulate you for your nomination to be on the Chairperson’s Panel. I served with you in the Departmental Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations and I know you did...
