Hon. Owen Baya (Kilifi North, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, at the outset, I oppose this Motion and call upon every Hon. Member of this House to oppose it. This is one way of disenfranchising a whole nation and giving resources to certain regions that are politically correct. However, the people...

Hon. Owen Baya (Kilifi North, UDA) You know we abide by the Standing Orders. The Standing Orders of this House are very clear. One cannot discuss the name of the President in this House without a substantive Motion. The Standing Orders say that. When I hear Hon. Wamboka and Hon....

I want to address chairpersons and vice-chairpersons of committees. We do not lack Members in this House to chair committees. We expect you...

Hon. Owen Baya (Kilifi North, UDA) Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I support the Report. Firstly, when you bring a report which says that a majority of the people employed at Maseno University are Luos, you should state which levels. Otherwise, what do you expect if a university...

Hon. Owen Baya (Kilifi North, UDA) Yes! It is at all levels. I was giving an example of Pwani University, which is in my area. When you look at the top and middle level employees, you may find one or two people are from the Giriama community. The rest are...
