What these numbers don’t measure
- Committee work
- Parliament publishes no committee attendance for either House, so nobody can count it — us included.
- Constituency work
- Funerals, harambees, schools, casework. Recorded nowhere we can read.
- Whether it worked
- We can count questions asked, not answers given.
- Speaking often isn’t speaking well. Use these to ask Julius Lekakeny Sunkuli better questions — not to grade them.

Parliamentary Activity
Hon. Temporary Speaker, the Request for Statement is very important, especially the fourth matter that Hon. Tonui raised. The ministry needs to come and address us on the quality of the transformers they install in our urban centres nowadays. Is the placement of posts into the ground being done professionally?...
Official Hansard sourcePersonally, I do not attach so much importance to the office of CEC member. This is one of the public offices where the taxpayer spends a lot of money for nothing. In my opinion, the lower the threshold the better because CEC members do not serve any important purpose in...
Official Hansard sourceHon. Temporary Chairlady, I welcome the members of the NPC of the People's Republic of China, where I served as an Ambassador. The NPC is the highest political organ in the People's Republic of China. They are the equivalent of our Parliament. We have had great relationships with them, together...
Official Hansard sourceOn a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Before I allow your point of order, can I first of all propose the question? That was my point of order. (Question proposed)
Official Hansard sourceHon. Temporary Speaker, I support the Third Reading. However, I hope that in the near future, the Senate will introduce additional amendments to eliminate redundant offices. Personally, I do not believe that we need both the CEC and the CEO among other positions. We are spending taxpayers’ money to give...
Official Hansard sourceHon. Temporary Speaker, I stand to support this Bill. Its intention is to amend Section 226 of the Penal Code. Sorry, there are a lot of consultations here. Unfortunately, it is being done in Dholuo. (Laughter) religious issue. Churches— like my Church, the Catholic Church— consider taking life, even your...
Official Hansard sourceHon. Temporary Speaker, I also beg to support the Bill. I have listened to very eloquent speeches from the Leader of the Majority Party, our friend, Hon. Kimani, and my good scout friend who is eloquent and a very dedicated Member of Parliament, Hon. Kiarie. (Applause)(Laughter) Hon. Kuria Kimani, could...
Official Hansard sourceThank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I do not know what Prof Jaldesa is doing there. (Hon. (Prof) Guyo Jaldesa consulted with Hon. Patrick Osero) Hon. Sunkuli, go on but advise Hon. Kibagendi not to block the view. It is out of order to block the Speaker’s view of the Member...
Official Hansard sourceHon. Speaker, I wish to bring to the attention of the House the passing on of Hon. Gideon Sitelu ole Konchellah. He passed away last Friday at the Nairobi Hospital. Hon. Konchellah represented Kilgoris Constituency as its Member of Parliament for multiple terms between 2003 and 2022 under different political...
Official Hansard sourceOn a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. What is your point of order, Hon. Julius Sunkuli? Hon. Temporary Speaker, I know that Hon. Murugara is a very eminent lawyer and Member of this House. According to our Standing Orders, once a Member contributes to a matter, he cannot have...
Official Hansard sourceHon. Temporary Speaker, at the outset, I support this Bill. However, during the Committee of the whole House stage, it needs to be amended considerably. The long title of the Bill says that this Act gives effect to Article 172
Official Hansard sourceOn a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Let us hear the point of order from Hon. Sunkuli. Hon. Temporary Speaker, no doubt Hon. Mutuse is a very good lawyer, but could he, perhaps, not mislead us on one aspect? Delegated legislation cannot come through a Bill. That is not...
Official Hansard sourceHon. Speaker, I want to thank you for this opportunity and for acknowledging our people from Emurua Dikirr. I also wish to congratulate our colleague, Hon. David Keter alias Dollar line. I think you can see the people in the Speaker’s Gallery and, even more, at the Public Gallery. That...
Official Hansard sourceI request to joyride because the road from Ngong to Narok and onwards, which the Member is referring to, is very important. It seems to be falling apart already. Some parts of it need to be repaired. More fundamentally, because it is now a major highway, could Safaricom try to...
Official Hansard sourceHon. Speaker, I beg to lay the following Paper on the Table of the House: Report of the Committee on Delegated Legislation on its consideration of the Copyright
Official Hansard sourceHon. Speaker, I beg to give notice of the following Motion: THAT, this House adopts the Report of the Committee on Delegated Legislation on its consideration of the Copyright (Consolidated Music and Audio-Visual Works) Tariffs, 2026, laid on the Table of the House on Wednesday, 29th April 2026 and pursuant...
Official Hansard sourceThank you, Hon. Speaker. I wish to support the Report of the Committee. The new ambassador is not known to me personally, but I have read his credentials.
