Mugambi Murwithania Rindikiri

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. The matter at hand is very critical in the running of the corporate institutions of this country. At the outset, I support the amendment that has been brought forward. I am more concerned with the performance of State corporations, but...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I do not have much but I must commend the Committee for finding it good that we go through this process of arbitration and coming up with a compromise on the way forward. It is true that land is very emotive and...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. This is a very emotive issue. I oppose this Motion. I also want to join my colleagues who have clearly stated that it was not introduced with the correct evidence of how we should do it. This Motion was brought...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. As a country we need to support scientific research. We are known for science-based innovations and advanced information systems. A lot of research has been done to that effect and that is why Kenya is recognised as a centre for...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. As articulated by our Chairman, matters of land in our country are very emotive. We have had many challenges in the management of land in this country. We have so much land and yet, many conflicts are associated with it....

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. This is a critical topic for discussion in this country. As it is right now, the situation may look like a few are getting while others are not. But, we must not lose sight of some historical factors that have...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. This is a very important Report which requires the attention of all Members of this House. It has raised very weighty issues that are touching on various factors like mismanagement, investigations, audit and regional issues. To give this Report justice,...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) It is on lack of quorum, Hon. Temporary Speaker. This is a very substantive Report.

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. It has become fashionable that in every financial year, a new circular is issued from the Kenya Roads Board. I wonder why the Kenya Roads Board does this when there is a system that is already agreed upon. This matter came...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) No, Hon. Speaker. I just wanted…

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Hon. Speaker, cases of drug and substance abuse are on the rise, particularly among our youths in schools. Hon. Mwale's request for statement is timely. It is a serious problem whose solution needs to be fast-tracked. We need more information from every region. I agree...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) No. I will contribute to the next business.

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for this opportunity. This Bill is coming at the right time when the Kenya Kwanza Government, and now the Broad-Based Government, agrees on certain things that need to be done to fast- track the economic growth of this country. The...

Hon. Rindikiri Mugambi (Buuri, UDA) Thank you Hon. Temporary Speaker. At the outset, I identify myself with the Report of the Committee and ask this House to approve the candidature of Mr. Douglas Kanja Kirocho. I have looked at the Report and its structure or presentation has captured all the...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I remember when the Principal Secretary appeared, I asked that the Ministry supply us with or submit the data on the funding per band for each constituency. I did that because almost 90 per cent of the students from my constituency...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Thank you. I am very excited to see Hon. Millie move many rows from the back to the front. She is a person I have always listened to since I came to this Parliament. I have benefited a lot, particularly when it comes to various...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Thank you. I want to identify myself with the Committee Report which you shared. I was very keen to check the suitability of the two candidates for the job. Beatrice has a serious business to do in the East African Community. In the story of...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Oh, Hon. Speaker. I apologise. Madam Beatrice can analyse and manage issues affecting the East African Community, including conflict, trade, democracy and good governance, political integration, ASALs and regional development.

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) I forgot I was given a different card and did not change my password, so I was trying to access the microphone. I rise to identify myself with the Report that has been tabled whose subject matter is the appointment of M/s PKF Kenya LLP...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Thank you Hon. Temporary Speaker. He is very familiar with me, maybe sometimes I become invisible. This is an institution that should not be seen to be associated with anything touching on irregularities. I have no interest in M/s PKF Kenya LLP or any other,...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. First, I want to congratulate Hon. Mishi Mboko for bringing this Motion. She is asking the national Government, through the Ministry of Health, to collaborate with the county governments. They need to develop a policy which will integrate mental healthcare...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I did not say that.

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I know that Hon. Julius Sunkuli is a senior lawyer but I said, ‘could be’. This does not mean you are mad.

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Yes, Hon. Temporary Speaker. He is my friend.

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Sunkuli, for that information. I have no ill intentions, whatsoever. I am a senior Member here and I respect everybody. I said, 'could be'. But, of course, we went to different schools. I do not know which school my friend went to,...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I said it on a light note.

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, what I know is that there are those who buy degrees. If you go to the records of the University of Nairobi…

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. This Motion is very critical because it calls upon us to allocate money. We need to address this in the policy. We need to have facilities and see how they will be managed. We also need to continuously interact with...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, the Member is insinuating without any proof or evidence…

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, Standing Order 106 on irrelevance. The Member should not bring the issue of miraa or muguka into the debate. He has no scientific reason to believe that these two crops cause mental illness. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to associate myself with the Report of the Committee. At the outset, we need to support this Report. I have studied part of the Report and picked two things I was very keen on. One of them is the...

Hon. Mugambi Rindikiri (Buuri, JP) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Cancer is a serious killer in Meru. As an agricultural community, the high level of chemicals in potato growing areas is very concerning. The Ministry of Health in conjunction with the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development should be at the...
