OWINO, MARTIN PETERS

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. My appreciation for the time. I support this Motion and congratulate my friend, Hon. TJ Kajwang’ and the team. This is long overdue. Bodaboda come in many forms. Some are tricycle, others are bicycles while others are e-bikes. Reviewing the regulations to incorporate them is...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support this Bill wholeheartedly. Hon. Baya has made many factual and important comments here. This really makes us unhappy: We have money, even from development partners, in billions—Ksh33 billion, as he correctly stated—but it cannot be disbursed to rural folks because of...

Yes. (Hon. Nabii Nabwera spoke off the record)

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the Bill. As it stands, mining gold in every part of the country is in a mess. Those people are desperate and looking for how to survive. They go into caves that collapse and many are killed. Some are maimed and...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I congratulate you and your team as I rise to support this Special Motion. You sat through it all. We watched and took notes. I would like one item introduced into our vetting exercise. We passed in this House to have quarterly reports from our ministries....

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I support The Crops (Amendment) Bill (National Assembly Bill No.8 of 2023) . Kudos to my friend, Hon. Tangaza. When it was… It is Hon. Tandaza. What did I say?

My apologies, Hon. Tandaza.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I beg to move that the Community Health Workers Bill (National Assembly Bill No. 53 of 2022) be now read a Third Time. I also request our Chairman, Hon. (Dr) Pukose, to second.

I support my Chair on this. Many community health workers were worried that the 12-month transition period was too short. Therefore, this amendment will give them enough time to take one or two courses that are needed to fit in. We have a variety of community health workers. Some are...

Hon. Temporary Chairlady, I beg to move that the Committee do report to the House its consideration of the Community Health Promoters Bill, (National Assembly Bill No.53 of 2022) , and its approval thereof with amendments. (Question proposed) (Question put and agreed to) (The House resumed) IN THE HOUSE [The...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to move that the House do agree with the Committee in the said Report. I also request Hon. Irene Mayaka to second the Motion for agreement with the Report of the Committee of the whole House.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support this amendment Bill. I want to congratulate Hon. Irene Mayaka for taking the first shot at the Bill. It is very tiring and very needy. There is a lot of research that has been thrown into it. It is true that...

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. It is very sad to lose people at this rate. I condole with the family of Murunga as well as the family of Austin Oduor. I just want to say a few things about Austin. This is the finest team captain we ever had in...

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. On behalf of my family and the people of Ndhiwa, I want to condole with the people of Alego Usonga and my friend, Hon. Atandi, on the passing on of Hon. Peter Oloo Aringo. Kenyans have lost a great man of repute. There are so...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, much has been said about this matter. Let us drain the swamp. It is us who are giving the Senate a lot of power by giving them money. We passed the law here and gave them money for oversight, bursary and whatever else they do. Let us...

Thank you very much…

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for the opportunity. Before I reply, I want to donate a minute to Hon. Dorothy Muthoni.

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I want to thank Hon. Member for that support. Yesterday, we had a robust debate on this and across the board. Everybody found that community health workers are integral to this country's health delivery system. Reactionary medicine is not helping. Waiting for patients to be...
