Mukunji John Gitonga Mwaniki

Hon. Gitonga Mukunji (Manyatta, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I will just substantiate by explaining the law that we passed in this House. We passed a law and said that we will anchor our debts to the GDP. Experts must analyse and know very well that the GDP of our nation,...

Hon. Gitonga Mukunji (Manyatta, UDA) Withdraw what, Hon. Temporary Speaker? I am giving my comments of the Report that is on the Floor. 26th February 2026 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 48 (Loud consultations)

Hon. Gitonga Mukunji (Manyatta, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I also wish to add my voice to the Report of the MTDS. First, I disagree with the Leader of the Majority Party, even though he has left. When the Leader of the Majority Party misleads the nation by stating...

Hon. Gitonga Mukunji (Manyatta, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, as long as I believe that what I have said is correct, I do not need to withdraw anything. That is just the law. These are Bills that we pass in this House. It was among the first Bills that we passed....

Hon. Gitonga Mukunji (Manyatta, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, first, I am not the Member for Runyenjes, so I will not answer Hon. Wamuchomba. I will just continue with my contribution.

Hon. Gitonga Mukunji (Manyatta, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, why should I withdraw something that can be substantiated? All I said is that financial experts analyse the GDP, not this House. I stand with that. The Temporary Speaker (Hon. Omboko Milemba)So, you were misquoted. Hon. Gitonga Mukunji (Manyatta, UDA) I was...

Hon. Gitonga Mukunji (Manyatta, UDA) Thank you. Securitisation is borrowing; it simply involves borrowing against revenue that is intended for future generations of this nation. I want this House to take the issue of debt seriously because we are present here today, but in five years, a new generation will...

Hon. Gitonga Mukunji (Manyatta, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I also want to add my voice to the Report of the Committee. I proudly speak about NG-CDF today, having won the case in court that was almost threatening a fund that I believe has transformed the lives of Kenyans...

Hon. Gitonga Mukunji (Manyatta, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. It is sad that we are talking about the National Government Affirmative Action Fund (NGAAF) audit reports of 2015.
