Makali Benson Mulu

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I also want to add my voice to the President’s Speech. First of all, I appreciate the fact that His Excellency the President admitted that the country is not where he promised Kenyans it would be,...

Hon (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Listening to Hon. Kawaya and the representative of the Chairperson, it is obvious they will not get a solution in this sitting. The Statement has been read… I am on a point of order. How can...

Continue Hon. Makali. Hon (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) I taught Hon. CNN is a ranking Member. The Chairperson can assist the Member for Mwala by facilitating a meeting with the Principal Secretary. That way, the questions he has asked will be answered. Otherwise, Hon. Thuku cannot answer some...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Muluu (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I want to thank the Chairperson of the Committee for admitting that this Statement is totally inadequate. When I looked at this Statement, I asked myself whether KPLC knows what they should be doing. On a...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Muluu (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. The family of the affected boy has been waiting for seven years. It will not cost us anything to wait for one month as long as this matter is concluded. A month is okay with us.

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) On a point of order, Hon. Speaker.

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I agree with Hon. Mbui regarding the construction of classrooms by Members of Parliament because this is a House of Records. I also want to follow up on an earlier matter that is quite serious. We need your indulgence....

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I support this Motion. However, I want to go on record about three things. The truth is that Members only have Wednesday Morning Sittings to bring their bills and motions. It is unfair when the Leader of the...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. 13th November 2024 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 41 Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM)Before I even comment on this Motion, I join you in appreciating the presentation from the Hon. Member from Wajir North. When you...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Yes, we have serious professionals. I want to thank him. I wish he was the person who seconded the Motion because he would have added a lot of value to the debate. Hon. Temporary Speaker, I join my colleagues in thanking Hon. Mayaka...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44 (2) (c) , I request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Energy regarding the status of compensation to Master Simon Muema due to severe injuries suffered following...

Hon. (Dr) Mulu Makali (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you very much. I just want to join colleagues in appreciating this Motion. I want to go on record that I participated in passing the three pieces of law. However, there are things we objected to; we said that they did not...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I join my colleagues in condoling the family of the late Hon. Murunga. You and I served with him in the 11th Parliament. He was a gentleman per excellence. He was cool and very focused. 7th...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Hon. Deputy Speaker, was the information you have given in terms of the absence of the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock communicated to the Committee? Was the Committee aware that these requests for statements were supposed to be responded...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Not yet. Who says I have spoken? The Temporary Speaker (Hon. Peter Kaluma) Proceed. Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for this opportunity so that I add my voice to this important debate in this...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Chairman. I want to comment on financing of the Authority. I totally agree with what Hon. Dawood has said. It will not be fair just to ring-fence the resources through this Bill because we also have the...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Hon. Temporary Chairperson, I do not have an issue. I was rising on a point of order because there was an amendment, yet he said there was no amendment. The Temporary Chairman (Hon. Omboko Milemba) : Thank you. (Question, that the words to...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you Hon. Temporary Chairman. I want to commend the Chairperson for the requirement that we need a registered pharmacist and not just anyone. That is very important. I support. The Temporary Chairman (Hon. Omboko Milemba) : Hon. Dawood.

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you. Following up on what the Deputy Speaker has said, it is important we get it right. We have used a lot of pharmacists and pharmaceutical technologists in earlier clauses. I did not raise that matter because I thought this Clause addressed...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Chairman. This Clause is very important because it demands that before any health product or technology is brought into this country, it must be inspected and verified, which is critical. I am worried about the penalty in...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. We are discussing a very important matter of asbestos. We have it at the centre of a town in my constituency. We also have discharged toxic substances into our rivers. I do not think we are powerless...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you, Hon Temporary Speaker. I do not intend to interrupt my good friend, Hon KK. Since we are on national television, it is important for him to explain what ‘115 per cent’ or ‘130 per cent’ means. This might cause confusion. Can...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. It is important that we get a few Members to contribute on such an important Motion. This is because the Senate has rejected the proposed changes by this House. The mood I see in the House...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute. Impeachment of a Deputy President is a matter of national and international interest. Based on that, people have to be very careful with what they do with this impeachment. I...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Yes. I have no problem. I hope I will be saving my time.

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Hon. Speaker, I really do not see any point of order there. I ignore and proceed. 8th October 2024 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 43 Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM)The issue of the judicial officer who is being accused in one of the...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Hon. Speaker.

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM)Another point of order?

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) You know, Hon. Speaker, I hope this is not just to drive me to not say what I want to say. I can see a very deliberate move to curtail me from saying what I want to say.

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) You know the thing is, Hon. Speaker, you need to protect me. You have been protecting everybody who has spoken unless, also, you are on the same side of those who are supporting. I do not think it is fair! You have been...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) You know Hon. Speaker, with all due respect, people have been making their contribution here since morning. Nobody has been shouting, 'Point of order'. It is my democratic position to oppose the Motion. (Several Members spoke off the record)

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) I have been elected by the people of Kitui Central to come to this House three times, and nobody can assume that I cannot make my contribution. I have been saying, on the matter of judicial officer…

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) The judicial officer has been accused of corruption related matters. There is a court case as we are speaking. Are we running away from accountability as a country? Why do we not allow the courts to do their work up to conclusion? That,...

Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu (Kitui Central, WDM) Hon. Speaker, so I was saying that Kenyans, and in particular people of Kitui Central, have said kufa makanga, kufa dereva, kufa makanika. It is because Kenyans have more serious issues to think about. We want a renewal of this country. This idea...
