Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for the opportunity to contribute to this Motion.

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I welcome all the schools in the Public Gallery which have visited Parliament, particularly the school I went to, Kalisasi Primary School. They should feel welcome in Parliament, and when they return home, they...

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM-K) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM-K) Yes, Gideon Mulyungi. Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity. I rise to support the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill. I would like to start with the matter of the Kenya Roads Board (KRB) . It has 13 members and they are there...

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM-K) Ichung’wah is my friend. I am supporting.

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM-K) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I am guided. On the matter of public and private entities being investigated and charged, I think in every corruption case, there is a giver and taker. I agree that we should amend the law so that both the giver and...

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central (WDM) On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central (WDM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. The Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Transport and Infrastructure is completely out of order for thanking the CEO of Kenya Roads Board. He should have asked him to resign with immediate effect. Thank you.

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Hon. Speaker, I rise to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Tourism, Wildlife, and Heritage the following Question: Could the Cabinet Secretary-

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I thank the Cabinet Secretary for that answer, and also for visiting my area. She is very conversant with that area. There are areas which I require further clarification on. One, she has talked about fencing so that the human...

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM) Hon. Speaker, I rise to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Lands, Public Works, Housing and Urban Development the following Questions: Could the Cabinet Secretary:

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM) I will move to the next Question. Question 085/2023 COMPLETION OF THE HIGH MAST SECURITY LIGHTING PROJECT IN MWINGI TOWN 5th July 2023 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 29

The Cabinet Secretary.

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM) Yes, I have supplementary questions on Question No.084/2023. On Mui Coal Basin, the Cabinet Secretary should be very clear and practical on the timelines because he has said within the year. I need to know what period they will be going back to the...

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM) Hon. Speaker, there are some supplementary questions that the Cabinet Secretary has not answered. One of them is regarding Mui Coal Basin. I asked him about the timelines and he told me that he would look at the whole year and see what he...

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM) Just one more point. I want timelines on that. Secondly, I cannot agree with the Cabinet Secretary that the Government of Kenya does not have surveyors. He says he is recruiting surveyors. How do you recruit surveyors?

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM) Can the Cabinet Secretary assure me that he will increase the number surveyors at the Tana River border to survey the land?

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. At the outset, I rise to oppose the Finance Bill. It goes against the will and expectations of poor Kenyans. I agree with the Member who has just spoken. This Bill is insensitive to Kenyans because it proposes to overtax...

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM) Hon. Speaker, I went to school and I am not an idiot. I am looking at this Report which I have to refer to. When I face down, that Member should not say I am reading a speech. I will continue to look down....

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM) Hon. Speaker, I think there are people here who have nothing to do. I rise to oppose this Bill vehemently. Kenya Kwanza promised to put money in the pockets of Kenyans: Hustlers, mama mboga, and boda boda riders. Instead of doing that, they are...

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I am the Temporary Leader of the Minority Party now. (Laughter)

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM) Both. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Sometimes, I wonder why the Government side is busy asking their own Government very many questions. (Laughter)

Hon. Gideon Mulyungi (Mwingi Central, WDM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, Mwingi is a big town. It is the second-largest town in Kitui County. There are pockets around Mwingi Town that do have Last-Mile Connectivity. Can the Cabinet Secretary tell us what plans he has to ensure connectivity to those areas? There...
