Atandi Samuel Onunga

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to the Motion on the Floor. Before that, allow me to join my colleague Hon. Babu Owino in welcoming the youth leaders who have come to Parliament today. Ms. Tabitha is one of our strong young women leaders...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, on the issue of consultancy in Government, every year, there is a humongous allocation for consultancies. The information I have is that consultations have been revived now. What was consulted in the last financial year is being requested again this year, at the same fee. The consultants...

Thank you for giving me the opportunity. I brought a Petition before this House a while back and the Public Petitions Committee has submitted their Report. I am going through the Report and I have established that the recommendations of the the Committee do not agree with the prayers that...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand to support this Petition. There are many petitions touching on land compensation which have not been resolved by this House, including in my constituency. Hon. Speaker, I would like you to know that there is a road from Siaya Town to Nyadorera to Port...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I rise to support the Motion which has been moved by my colleague, Hon. Rozaah Buyu. This matter is very serious. It is very sad when I hear my colleague, Hon. (Dr) Pukose, speak like we are here to joke....

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I want to give this chance to my leader to give me some information. It is not up to you to give your leader the chance. Continue. Hon. Temporary Speaker, the point I was raising is that the police serve every regime that comes into power. The...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, thank you very much. Let us not pretend that the police, on their own, can wake up one morning and shoot people on the streets.

Hon. Temporary Speaker, give me a chance to make my point. Do not read. Table the document. (Loud consultations) Hon. Temporary Speaker, give me a chance to make my point. My point is very clear.

Senior Counsel, (Dr) Otiende Amollo, has certified the list I want to table. The list is here. Let me table the list for you to look at it. (Applause) Hon. Atandi, approach the Table. (Hon. Samuel Atandi laid the document on the Table) Hon. Temporary Speaker, having tabled the certified...

I will not withdraw what I have said. I want permission to continue. What I will do is that I am allowed to proceed.

For the record, I will not withdraw what I have said. I want to clarify that the police decided to go to Kisumu and Busia, remove people from their houses and shoot them dead. I am not going to add anything. I am not going to withdraw my statement. Hon....

Hon. Temporary Speaker, sorry I was not ready to speak, but let me make a comment on the proposed legislation. I support the legislation. It is time we reviewed the Penal Code in its entirety because it has various offences such as unauthorised uniforms. You could dress in certain uniform,...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker.

Hon. Speaker, I rise to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Water, Sanitation and Irrigation the following Question. Could the Cabinet Secretary:

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I thank the Cabinet Secretary for the comprehensive and well-researched response she has given to this House on the Question I raised. I want to plead with her on several issues. One, whether it will be possible for the Authority to begin working on the lake...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to oppose this Motion for the following reasons: one, I have read this Report from the first page to the last one, and whereas the Committee attempts to reject the nomination of Dr Phyllis Wambui by virtue of age, the Committee has failed...

Hon. Chepkong’a wants us to allow this…

Hon. Temporary Speaker, the PSC forwarded two names to the President. The first name was Dr Phyllis Wambui Wagacha and the second name was Mr Japhter Kiplimo Rugut. The President picked Dr Phyllis Wambui. The alternative is Mr Kiplimo Rugut. Once we reject this nominee, the next person will be...

No, Hon. Temporary Speaker. You are insinuating that the process will be started afresh. I am telling you this because I know the politicians on that side. They will lobby… Under which law? If you are not quoting any law, I would rather you withdraw that part and conclude your...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I withdraw with caution. But to also say that… You have withdrawn. Thank you very much. You can proceed. Hon. Temporary Speaker, in case this House rejects the nomination of Dr Phyllis, I would be sad if the name of the second fellow is sent here for...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to support the Supplementary Appropriation (No.2) Bill (National Assembly Bill No.3 of 2023) . I want to make the following observations. One, even though this House, through the Departmental Committees, appropriate resources to MDAs, we have observed that the House...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I support the Petition. It is a very serious Petition. Preceding the presentation of this Petition here, there have been public protests and demonstrations about this road. The social media has been awash with people protesting about the state of this...

Thank you Hon. Temporary Speaker for giving me this opportunity. Let me begin by saying that I support this Motion on Equalisation and Appropriations Bill 2023. In supporting this Bill, I would like to say that we have just seven years before the end of this Equalisation Policy and yet,...

Thank you Hon. Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this Bill. From the word “go”, I oppose it. I want to clarify that my beard is natural and not artificial. I oppose this Bill because we are just coming back from elections in which the Government in...

No! I do not want to speak on this one.
