Julius Lekakeny Sunkuli

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, JP) Hon. Deputy Speaker, I wish to join my colleagues in commending Hon. Bartoo for this rare opportunity that she has accorded the village elders. She has done something which no one has done before; inviting the ordinary leaders who work for our country back at...

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, KANU) I have a question because I have learnt from the Government that the economy has improved. Taking into account that we were operating 10th June 2025 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 176 Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, KANU)under austerity measures, has the budget to Parliament reinstated our travel...

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, KANU) Hon. Temporary Chairman, the Authority really needs to be funded. Someone was killed in Kilgoris last weekend. When I went to see the family, I met two officials from IPOA who came to investigate why the police shot the boy, down at the rural area....

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, KANU) Hon. Temporary Chairman, this is the Office of the Ombudsman. I wish I was in that Departmental Committee because I would not allocate any funds to that Commission. There must be value for money. There is absolutely nothing on public record showing what that Commission...

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, JP) Hon. Temporary Chairman, I do not know whether this money will take care of buying seedlings and planting trees. The Government policy of increasing forest cover is given lip service. Many of our women groups have seedlings, but they cannot sell them to anybody and...

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, KANU) Hon. Speaker, the Chairman has said that the factories to the east of the Rift Valley have more prudent financial borrowing. And that the factories in the Rift Valley and the west of the Rift Valley borrowed with a higher interest rate and that is...

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I welcome all the students who have come from different parts of Kenya. It is good that they have all come together to see the National Assembly of the Republic of Kenya. From the outset, you learn the need to...

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, KANU)Thank you, Hon. Chairlady. I want to support and also request the Government to do a little more. There was a time eucalyptus trees were promoted as having originated from South Africa and as a fast-maturing tree. People ended up planting them everywhere with little results....

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, KANU) I also beg to support. The Chairman who has moved this Motion has done a good job. He has said everything that needs to be said about…

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, KANU) On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, KANU) Hon. Temporary Speaker, last week, the substantive Speaker made a directive that where a Member has asked a Question and has not asked for it to be deferred, and the relevant Chairperson is present, he should not be asked to do it. He should just...

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, KANU) Hon. Speaker, I wish to join everybody else in eulogising Professor Ngugi wa Thiong'o. He was definitely a literary giant in the 1970s. The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) , an online newspaper in the United Kingdom (UK) , said about him; that, when he was...

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, KANU) Hon. Speaker, I know that I cannot joyride on your statement. However, as an alumnus of The University of Nairobi, is it in order that I also join you in welcoming this good delegation from the university? I say so because we are nowadays emphasising...

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, JP) The last question I am asking is: how effective will IPOA be? Is the Chairman aware that the police officers have been told not to cooperate with IPOA? Is there another channel that the Chairman is going to use to make these facts known? I...

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, KANU) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I would like to support this policy. However, in my opinion, it is not adequate. I have not heard the Mover of the Motion say how much public participation it went through and the quality of public participation for this. This is...

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, KANU) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I thank the Chairperson for the Statement that he has made. Before I comment, I would like to thank many Members of this House, beginning with my colleague from Transmara, Hon. Ng’eno, the Leader of the Majority Party at the Senate, and...

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. The Chairperson has said in his response that police officers can use commensurate force. How did it become necessary to use guns? Did these people have guns? How did they become targets of bullets, yet they were either armed in...

Hon. Julius Sunkuli (Kilgoris, KANU) Hon. Chairlady, as Hon. Junet, the Leader of the Minority Party said, in real sense, in spirit and in all else, we do not find these reservations to be justified. The provision talks about relatives, but the definition of a relative is so wide that...
