Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Thank you, Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. The idea of the Kenya Open University is very timely. Listening to what has happened and noting that Kenya has spent so much money on distant and e-learning outside, it is a shock that this was...

Hon. Robert Mbui (Kathiani, WDM) Hon. Speaker, we are debating the Finance Bill, and it is very shocking for Hon. Rindikiri, who is on the Floor, to start lecturing me and mentioning my name. It is about debate and the Finance Bill. Whatever emotions he has… Hon. Speaker, please protect...
