Mugambi Murwithania Rindikiri

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to join my colleagues on this important discussion concerning the NG- CDF. I stand here as a proud Member of Parliament for steering this important Fund to develop our schools and give bursaries to our kids. Some of us were...

Thank you. Sometime back, there was an allegation that very many transformers had been bought by Kenya Power. We were told that investigations were going on and the Government would give us a report on why many transformers were ordered but they were not in use. Thank you, Hon. Temporary...

I stand guided, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Hon. King’ara always has very good intentions. What could have happened is lack of communication with the concerned drafters of the Bill. I served in the last Parliament when the regulations on boda boda came up. I agree with the Chairman that there is already...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support this Bill that has been brought by my friend. This Bill seeks to insert a new section to the Health Act 2017. The Member is seeking to insert a section relating to the referral system. I agree with the amendment on...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Could the Prime Cabinet Secretary tell us why the Government has not considered supplying seeds to the farmers together with fertiliser? I do not think it is important to supply fertiliser without seeds knowing that farmers have gone for a long time without rains and therefore...

No. Let me have the microphone.

Hon. Speaker, it is not good for the Hon. Member to issue a statement that is not factual. There is no taxation in the housing fund contributions. I want to make that point as the Vice-Chair of the Departmental Committee on Housing, Urban Planning and Public works. There is nothing...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Sorry for being persistent. You will recall that two months ago, I asked a Question on determination of Arid and Semi-arid Lands programme for the counties which are not in the programme. I presented the Question to the Ministry of East African Community, ASALs and Regional...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the ratification of these conventions, but I have some reservations bearing in mind that they are three-in-one. Some information is pertinent because we can ratify a convention, but be unable to implement the same. This Parliament has a responsibility of protecting...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. First, I want to thank the Mover, our colleague, Hon. Tindi Mwale, for bringing this Motion. At the same time, I want to send my sincere condolences to all the parents, schools and classmates of all the children who have...

Hon. Speaker, I will take less than seven minutes. PARTICIPATION OF THE PARLIAMENT OF KENYA IN THE 13TH PLENARY ASSEMBLY OF THE FORUM OF PARLIAMENTS OF THE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON THE GREAT LAKES REGION Hon. Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 43, I rise to issue a general...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I almost gave up, but I want to thank you for the opportunity. I also thank the Committee led by my friend Hon. Bowen. At the outset, I support the candidature and the appointment of our former colleague, Hon. Martin Otieno Ogindo. He has already...

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. First, I want to thank my neighbour, Hon. Jane Kagiri, for bringing this Motion on the reduction in cost of electricity in the country. It is true that all of us receive electricity bills every month either as industrial consumers or as individual consumers. In...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I would like to ask my very good senior friend to give us statistics that prove that Miraa is a bad substance. You have demonised Miraa in three of your statements! Please, provide statistical evidence to prove that Miraa is entirely… If you misuse something, that does...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Motion. I thank my friend, Hon. Maina, for coming up with this Motion. However, just as my colleagues have said, something is missing in the Motion in the sense that we need to have an implementation...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I am picking this from the narrative that was given by the Mover of the Motion. We all know Inooro FM, Kameme FM, and Meru FM. The Mover mentioned them. If I should not follow that route, I stand guided. However, that was brought forth.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I did not make the statement in bad faith. This is a very serious issue even in business practice. Some companies pay taxes while others do not. It is discriminatory that some companies are given undue advantage over others. I join my colleagues in saying...

Hon. Speaker, I want to thank the Cabinet Secretary for the confidence in answering our questions. However, I have a problem with the issuance of passports. Some of the questions asked need to formally be reviewed particularly on the fathers, mothers and children, some of whom could be deceased. I...

Hon. Speaker, I stand to support the Division of Revenue Bill. The Committee has done an excellent job. I want to thank the Chairman for taking time to take us through the meaning of jargons in the Bill. One of the things that we need to know and note is...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the Report from the Committee that has guided us to a point that we can confidently reject the Report from SRC. SRC has become an animal. It has brought itself to a point that it is being seen as an authority...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I have some interest in the NG-CDF affairs. I want to thank the Chairman, the proposer and the seconder. We, however, should not only be seen to be discussing and passing the names of committee members of NG-CDF. It should be accompanied by a report...

Hon. Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 42A (5) , I rise to ask the Cabinet Secretary for East African Community, the Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs) and Regional Development the following Question:

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to comment on this issue of extra-judicial killings and unexplained disappearance of Kenyan citizens. In the history of Government, between the years 2017 and 2022, we witnessed many disappearances of Kenyan citizens. We never got an opportunity to know what exactly happened. One of...

I thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute to the memorandum by the President on various constitutional amendments touching on the NG-CDF, the NGAAF and the Senate Oversight Fund; amendment to Standing Order 42 to enable Cabinet Secretaries to appear before Parliament to answer Questions,...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for refreshing my memory on this new definition of gender. It has gone into the history of Kenya that there is another dictionary from the Supreme Court that has defined gender to include lesbian, gay, queer behaviour, et cetera. This complicates the aspect of who...
