ODHIAMBO, MILLIE GRACE AKOTH

On a point of order.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker for giving me this opportunity. Very respectfully, I have been fairly patient because I did not want to interfere with my senior, who came to Parliament before me. As a human rights defender of women, I am wondering where land and women come in. The...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. From the outset, I thank the Committee for that Report. I only wish that the recommendations were stronger. One of the recommendations is that victims should report any sexual assault or harassment, but given the nature of our society, victims...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. At the outset, I have just arrived from Suba North. I have not had the opportunity to look at the Treaty. I wish that the Member, in moving or in seconding, would have elaborated a little more on the agency. This is because when you...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Hon. Millie Odhiambo, Member of Parliament. I do not know whether it is Suba or Mbita. It is Suba North. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker for the guidance and clarity that you have given. Indeed, I was a Member of the Pan-African...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I apologise for interrupting my sister. I do not like interrupting my Hon. Sisters when they are speaking. Having said that, is the Member in order to be calling us guys especially, given the debate that Members have been pre-occupied with about guys, women, cross-cutting...

Thank you Hon. Temporary Speaker for giving me this opportunity. Let me take this opportunity to send my condolences to the family of William Mayange who was killed in Maseno. As we speak in this House, there is a family that is grieving and you can never recover the loss...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I hear Hon. Rozaah Buyu asking whether I am a senior counsel. I want to clarify to her that there is a senior counsel that is assigned by law but there is one by virtue of practice. By virtue of practice and by the number...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I want to thank Hon. Owen Baya for calling me sweetheart and I will respond by calling him sweeter heart. Having called him sweeter heart, I will take the opportunity to educate him: In the legal profession, you become senior by virtue of when you...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Hon. Millie, on a point of order? On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Let me take this opportunity to wish all the women a happy International Women’s Day. That is not my point of order. My point of order is...

(Spoke off-record) Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, UDA) Hon. Deputy Speaker, my good friend, Hon. Odhiambo, is shouting something from her seat which I cannot hear clearly. She seems to be advising on the NGAAF and the NG-CDF. I will be making that communication this afternoon. I, therefore, beg your indulgence...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

I am the Member of Parliament for Suba North Constituency. It is the same Mbita but the name has now changed to Suba North just to acknowledge that we are Subas. Please, proceed. Hon. Temporary Speaker, while they are still worried about what to do, I just want to indicate...

Thank you Hon. Temporary Speaker. I wish to support this policy. In supporting, I wish to indicate that, ordinarily, the policy should be coming before the law. But because we already have a legal framework in relation to a lot of issues dealing with agriculture, what would be required is...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving assurance as the Chairperson of the House Rules and Procedures Committee. I just want to show the concern that chairpersons of the various committees give excuses and get away with not responding to Statements adequately. In the last Parliament, we were here for five...

I am here.

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. What is out of order, Hon. Millie Odhiambo? Thank you Hon. Temporary Speaker. I do not wish to interrupt my neighbour but people know I rarely come to this House very early. Today I was here early and I am concerned because...

Thank you Hon. Temporary Speaker. First of all, let me thank the Parliament of Kenya for sending Members for sports. May they be sent every three months because it is very exciting and we do not want to wait for long. We were few and it was very exciting. So,...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. What is your point of order, Hon. Millie Odhiambo. Give her the microphone. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I do not want to interrupt my very good friend, Hon. Florence. Is she in order to mislead this House that NG-CDF is used...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I will try to be brief so that other Members can also get an opportunity. While we were discussing here, I noticed that one of my friends on Facebook called Mutumishi Koroso is asking why the discussion on NG-CDF by Members of Parliament is very...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for indulging me. I want to indicate that the Government needs to listen to the Members of Parliament who deal with communities directly. If you listen to a House where both sides are almost speaking with one voice, you need to know that there is...
