Musau Robert Mbui

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to second the Procedural Motion for extension of time for consideration of those two sets of Regulations. This is because we have just come from a long recess and the time between tabling and the consideration, kind of lapsed...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity to also support this Motion by the Member for Mwala. The importance of a healthy environment cannot be over emphasised because it is a worldwide problem and it is a conversation that is being discussed all over...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to also contribute to the Motion on the State of the Nation address delivered by His Excellency the President. First, I note that there are specific areas which the President is obliged to address. He...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker.

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Before we go to the Committee of the whole House, I want to raise a concern as a Member of the House Business Committee. The Order Paper is quite loaded today. We have a Supplementary Order Paper that has brought...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Hon. Temporary Chairman, I am looking at the qualifications that have been proposed here, which include demonstrable expertise and experience in finance, accounting, auditing, risk management, economics, law, engineering or corporate governance. Yet your own profession, Chair, has been over-looked: Those who teach all those...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker.

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker.

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) You cannot run the House like a market! On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker!

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) I rise under Standing Order 35. On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker! (Loud consultations)

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Give me the mic!

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) It is not the first time! (Loud consultations)

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) You are the one who is disorderly!

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) There is no quorum! You are putting questions when there is no quorum. This is becoming a joke!

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. You know, one of the pillars of business is basically customer service, and I think one of the problems that KQ has is customer service. For the customer service, we need to interrogate how they train their workers. Hon. Speaker, the...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) You had your platinum card. They could even recognize you, but they refused to allow you to board. What kind of PR is that? What kind of customer service is that? I think KQ needs to train its staff a lot better. Otherwise, they will...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Before we move on, because we are on Questions and Statements, there is a response to a request for a Statement we are expecting today as Members of this House. About a week ago, an hon. Member raised the question on...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Last week, we said he would be coming this Wednesday.

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) The Leader of the Majority Party can explain to us what the position is.

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. This is a straightforward matter. It is logical and makes a lot of sense to enable people with different shareholdings to trade in the stock market. However, I cannot support any law that gives the Cabinet Secretary authority to exempt certain...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity. I support the Report of the Committee on Energy regarding the Inquiry into the matter of reducing electricity costs in the country. We cannot achieve economic development in a nation without adequate and affordable electricity. The Committee...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to oppose Hon. Kaluma’s proposal. Members here have complained that it takes a long time for our Bills to pass. This Bill has already gone through Second Reading, Members debated, it has gone to Committee of the whole House,...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you for this opportunity. I also rise to support the Motion by the Committee on Regional Integration on its consideration of the amendment to Article 24 (2) (a) of the Protocol on the Establishment of the East African Community Customs Union. Ideally, the purpose...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for this opportunity to also contribute to this very important Motion. I want to confirm that I am normally very suspicious of the Bills presented by this regime. Having listened to the mover and the seconder, they have said very...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. The Temporary Speaker (Hon. (Dr) Rachael Nyamai) Hon. Mbui, is it on the same matter? Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) No. It is on another statement, Hon. Temporary Speaker, if you are done with that one.

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I want to seek your direction and indulgence. A statement was requested, and yesterday, the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Transport and Infrastructure informed the House that the circular indicating a reduction in the allocation of 22 and 10...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. First and foremost, I am very happy with the Committee on Delegated Legislation for the job well done. This issue originated from a circular issued by the Public Procurement Regulatory Authority (PPRA) , which indicated that every Government or state...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I take this opportunity to also pay tribute to the late Rt Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga, Kenya's biggest defender of human rights and the rule of law. I got the news of Baba's passing on when I was in London with...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to second this Motion. When dealing with regulations, there are several considerations that the Committee on Delegated Legislation must make. First, we ensure that the regulations are constitutionally sound by checking them against the Constitution of Kenya, 2010....

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Parliament is under attack. If you go to social media, read newspapers and watch television, it is this House that is continuously under attack. That has gone to the level of funds that go to the people that we represent, specifically...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) No.

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to second the Motion on the Affordable Housing Regulations 2025. First and foremost, I am a Member of the Committee of Delegated Legislation. This Committee is guided by the Statutory Instruments Act, which is very clear about what...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker I would not want to have a back and forth. 14th August 2025 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 39

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. On behalf of the Members, thank you for this opportunity to welcome all those institutions that have come to the House of Parliament. Many times, I hear Members telling students to work hard and become Members of Parliament. I would...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The issue raised by the Hon. Leader of the Minority Party is important. Since 2010 or 2013, when the new bicameral system began, we have witnessed numerous court cases. There appears to be an attempt to belittle the House of the...

Hon. Robert Mbui, (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I do sympathise, of course, with the rights of people being trampled on and the property being destroyed. I would like to ask the Cabinet Secretary - because he has been on record on those matters - how he will deal...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Hon. Speaker, on the answer to the issue of police training, the Cabinet Secretary has tried to explain that the curriculum promotes both the punitive and adversarial approach towards the public and also a rehabilitative and correctional approach. I beg to differ. I think the...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Hon. Speaker, I rise to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and National Administration the following question: Could the Cabinet Secretary ―

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. My question was on drugs and substance abuse. The Cabinet Secretary has mentioned an issue that has raised another question. He kept mentioning muguka and khat. Is muguka or khat a drug or a cash crop as defined in law? The...
