Omondi Caroli

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I was supposed to second this Motion, but I was held up somewhere. I had prepared extensively. I do not even know how to start. All great nations throughout history have been occupied with sports. These include the Greeks and the Romans. The Olympic motto - Citius...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. So that we make progress, I will just make two comments on this issue. One is the idea of individual criminal liability for breach of national values and principles on public service, and financial management under our Constitution; in particular, Articles 10 and 232. I...

Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the Motion. It is time for a genuine debate on our land use patterns. What worries me most is the lack of coherence across the country regarding how urban planning, peri-urban planning, and agricultural land are being utilised in...

Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. You will recall that you and the dearly departed Hon. Dalmas Otieno employed me as the first General Counsel, and eventually the Chief Executive Officer of the Electricity Regulatory Board, now the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) . Hon. Dalmas was quite a...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I am waiting for the next Special Motion.

Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Let me begin by congratulating the Hon. Lady for bringing this Special Motion and in asking me to second it. The AGOA was actually supposed to substitute aid because for a very long time, African countries had been arguing that we should move...

Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I will be brief. I take great exception to the Statements made by His Excellency the President, who has now three times attacked the character of everyone in this House, including yourself. We must now take the position of zero tolerance. Mass character assassination...

Let us take the war to them. If they want, we will give… (Hon. Caroli Omondi’s microphone went off)

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Could the Cabinet Secretary confirm to the House that the established compensation mechanism will also cover police officers who were injured during the demonstrations, and that the list of civilians to be compensated will be prepared largely by Non-Governmental Organisations (NGO), including the Independent Medical Legal...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. This is not a new clause. It was there before. The reason it was there was to deal with the illegal disposition of public land that had occurred before the promulgation of the Constitution of Kenya, 2010. What we are trying to do is to...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, we need to be very clear that it cannot go ad infinitum. At some point, this provision has to be exited so that there is certainty. If you have not claimed that your rights were violated for a hundred years, surely, what have you been doing? Sleeping...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I thank Hon. Toroitich and Hon. Owen Baya for wishing me well. I hope I will get there. Hon. Temporary Speaker, I rise to second and support the proposed amendment. The sponsor has very eloquently and elaborately explained the background of and reasons for the...

Thank you very much, Hon. Deputy Speaker and Hon. Shakeel, for asking me to second this important Motion on expression of concern on the Middle East conflict. There has been a lot of human suffering over the years regarding the Middle East conflict. It is a conflict that emerged just...

Hon. Speaker, we need to interrogate this matter further by focusing on the leadership of the House. That is where the problem lies, or perhaps it is in our Standing Orders. I have observed that it takes too long for questions addressed to Cabinet Secretaries to be answered in this...

Sorry, I thought I did. No. You may proceed. I was informing the other Members to press the intervention button. Thank you very much, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to build on what Hon. Mbui said. This should be the last time we have a revenue-sharing Bill that does not...

Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. As a matter of fact, I used to cause more happiness to the girls of Ogande when we visited them on outings as students from Homa Bay High School. (Laughter)

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I agree with the advice of go forth in faith, but Hon. Passaris is forgetting Jesus Christ was conceived in faith by divine visitation and so, her statement may not be very accurate. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. (Laughter)

Hon. Temporary Speaker, on some things, because of time and the extended networks we now have, we would like to keep them covered. I can only confess that she was called Carol. Thank you very much.

Thank you very much, Right Hon. Speaker. There is just a little element that is bothering me. Maybe, if I raise it, I could get some contributions from Members. When underage children have relationships and the girl gets pregnant, it is normally the boy who gets charged yet the boy...

Hon. Temporary Speaker I must request for a little more time. You ordered me to come back and I have applied my brain. So, please, indulge me. You ordered me to come back. (Laughter) You are already eating into your time. Let me begin by saying that all these questions...

Yes.

Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. As I have said, under Article 25 of the Constitution, you cannot limit liberty and you cannot subject somebody to cruel and inhuman treatment and take away their dignity, like detaining a person who has been treated in a hospital. Finally, I think...

Actually, I was waiting for the Motion by Hon. Tim Wanyonyi on land use but he was not around when it was called out.

Hon. Speaker, I am hearing much talk about the NADCO Report and that we are supposed to adopt it. The reality is that the Report has many constitutional illegalities that we need to debate. We cannot just be shepherded to adopt it. Order, Hon. Caroli Omondi. In fact, that is...
