Hon. Adipo Okuome (Karachuonyo, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to comment on the Petition regarding the hardship areas. Karachuonyo or Rachuonyo North is my constituency, and I represent it. I am very happy that one of my constituents has written what you have read to us. What he...

Hon. Adipo Okuome (Karachuonyo, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. It is strange that I have been given an opportunity to talk about what I hate, because our cultural setting does not allow us even to discuss it, leave alone consider it. It is a taboo to think of a...

Hon. Adipo Okuome (Karachuonyo, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I do not know whether I am able to tell you that. Did we have any, anyway? If I doubt what am asking, it is impossible for me to say a word on how much of the foreign debt has...

Hon. Adipo Okuome (Karachuonyo, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Mheshimiwa Shabbir has agreed he is…

Hon. Adipo Okuome (Karachuonyo, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. My appeal is that we should look at our tax regime again so that we can tax people in a manner that is conducive to the economy. You remember that the Government has now adopted no subsidy for consumption. This...

Hon. Adipo Okuome (Karachuonyo, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I am glad that you recognise Karachuonyo as a constituency of great people. The President wanted our views. It is important that we give him our views on what he sent to our Speaker. Let me start with the NG-CDF....

Hon. Adipo Okuome (Karachuonyo, ODM) Hon. Deputy Speaker, I am sorry, I have been tossed here and there to get a working microphone. At last, I have one. On my own behalf and that of the people of Karachuonyo, I register our condolences to the people of Kiambaa and to...

Hon. Adipo Okuome (Karachuonyo, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I support this Motion, under the persuasion that we have to look at the unemployment position in this country. We also have to consider the development situation in this country. We must be innovative and find out how we can...

Hon. Adipo Okuome (Karachuonyo, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I must say that sometimes the debate going on in this country is confusing people. You hear all the time people talking of CDF being outlawed by the court. That is true and nobody is 23rd November 2022 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY...

Hon. Adipo Okuome (Karachuonyo, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker for giving me the opportunity to contribute. I also thank my friend for donating to me an opportunity to just say one or two things. I support this Motion heartily because I realise that our youths are the potential giants...

Hon. Adipo Okuome (Karachuonyo, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. First, I congratulate you on securing a seat on the Chair where you are sitting now. Equally, I thank Mheshimiwa Elachi for this very important Motion. A country with a high level of unemployment will never be secure, and without...

Hon. Adipo Okuome (Karachuonyo, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I have been very patient like you advised. It has really taken me a long time, since 2.30 p.m. to now. However, I am happy that you have given me the opportunity. Thank you once again. NG-CDF is a lifeline...

Hon. Adipo Okuome (Karachuonyo, ODM) My time is over; but, I plead, that NG- CDF is paid urgently. Thank you.

Hon. Adipo Okuome (Karachuonyo, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me the opportunity. The EALA is a very important institution for member-States. I recall when the membership only covered three countries. I also recall when Kenya was getting its independence and the East African Community was the hope of...
