Junet Sheikh Nuh Mohamed

Thank you, Hon. Speaker, I beg to second the Motion as moved by the Leader of the Majority Party. Having said that, I am shocked that Hon. Wamboka was masquerading as the Leader of the Minority Party in this House in my absence. This is bad manners and very dangerous....

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to add to what the Leader of the Majority Party has said regarding the matter raised by Hon. Omboko Milemba. Hon. Speaker, this House never used to have the powers to look into the budget of this country. The Constitution gave us those powers....

Was it Ksh10 million? They gave only Ksh10 million to the first one and Ksh250 million to the other one.

We are going to name them. Hon. Speaker, we will not allow this to happen again. This House takes care of the interests of the people. Whatever concerns them is discussed here. On the same matter of skewed distribution of resources, look at what is happening in the roads sector....

On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. Yes, Junet. Based on your guidance and the Standing Orders, Hon. Speaker, Members who become chairs of committees are not allowed to sit in any other committee other than the committee they chair. A Commissioner is even higher than a chair of a...

Hon. Speaker, I second. I was away yesterday when the list was tabled and passed here. I wish to congratulate Members who have been nominated to different committees. The membership of committees will keep on changing because many factors come into play such as attendance and experience, as Hon. Osoro...

Hon. Speaker, I want to add my voice to what the Majority Leader has raised. This matter of the Public Audit (Amendment) Bill has been sensationalised in the country, to the extent that it was said the Leader of the Majority Party has tabled a Bill in Parliament to remove...

Hon. Speaker, I have been in this Parliament since the new Constitution came into place. It looks like the hangover of the old ways and the old Constitution has refused to go away from this country. Hon. Speaker, you have been a Member of Parliament for a long time. In...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I just want to add a few things to what the Leader of the Majority Party has said. This issue of RMLF has been on this Floor now for some time, since last Parliament. I have realised there is a systematic programme going on in this...

Hon. Speaker, I rise to bring to the attention of the House a matter of concern to the public. We are a country that is governed by the rule of law. In the last two days, we have been treated to an episode in Nairobi City County, where people who...

Hon. Speaker, I also stand to condole with the family of the departed Members of Parliament. I know Hon. Malulu Injendi well because we joined the 11th Parliament together. He was a very dedicated servant of the people and spent most of his time in his constituency. He was rarely...

Hon. Speaker, I stand to second the Motion that has been moved by the Leader of the Majority Party, Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah. First, I take this opportunity to thank His Excellency the President of the Republic of Kenya, Hon. William Samoei Ruto, for his efforts and his immense contribution towards...

On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. (Hon. Babu Owino stood up in his place)

Hon. Speaker, I have no intention to speak about your ruling; I want to speak on the matter that is before the House. Under instructions from our Parliamentary Group, before you put the Question, I have been asked to convey to you on the Floor of the House that we...

Hon. Speaker, first, today, I am privileged to speak from the seat of the Leader of the Majority Party. (Applause)(Laughter)(Laughter)(Applause) Last evening, when I went through it, I noted that the judges raised very serious fundamental issues. They raised issues relating to violation of the Constitution. Let us remember we...

On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. Hon. Sabina, hold on. Hon. Junet, what is your point of order? Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Hon. Wamboka who has just finished his contribution has said that the only seat Luhyas have in this Parliament is yours. Do we assume that?

On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. Yes, Hon. Junet. Hon. Speaker, it is not my intention to interrupt. You have already done so. It is not my intention to interrupt my colleague, the Leader of the Minority Party. (Laughter)(Laughter)

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support this Motion on the approval of the commissioners of the SRC. This is one of the new commissions that came with the new Constitution. The Commission consists of members of high integrity, people who I believe can do this work, qualified Kenyans...

Hon. Speaker, this is a very important issue. That is the reason why nowadays ambassadors have to be approved by this House. That was not the case before. The President would appoint individuals and they would go to work. We must make our views known because not all of us...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I am happy that you have protected me from the wrath of Hon. Kwenya. Maybe, one of the nominees who was dismissed is from his village and he is seeking a new job through an ambassadorial appointment. The House should look into this matter in the...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I think the Deputy Speaker did not hear me well. First, if you are to send me on a mission on behalf of Parliament to London, you will ask if I am available from a certain date. So, before you bring somebody's name to the National...

I also say that having a PhD does not mean that you know English. You can have a PhD and not know English. The other day in Eldoret, one university gave honorary degrees of PhDs, and people were in gowns. How did those people speak English? How can you confirm...

Hon. Speaker, is it in order for the Leader of the Majority Party to become a pollster and mislead the House that former Governor Kabogo was the best when he knows there is a sitting governor serving the county called Governor Wamatangi? When I asked him about Wamatangi, he said,...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to second this Motion for the adoption of the Fourth Report of the Committee on Appointments on the approval hearings of nominees for appointment as cabinet secretaries. Hon. Speaker, as the Leader of the Majority Party has alluded to, I sit in the Select...

Yes. Especially, by somebody from Wamunyoro Village.

I want to thank the Member for Mathira for informing me that Wamunyoro is a very good place which I have not yet visited. I need to pay a courtesy call to him so I can see how good Wamunyoro is. Why am I using Wamunyoro as an example? I...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I stand to support this Motion. I thank the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs for a job well done. They have done a thorough job because their Report is very clear on what their mandate was. I have gone through the Report. They...

Let me respond to both of them. Do you want to be informed by the Hon. Member for Buuri? Yes.

The information was meant for Hon. Keynan. What Hon. Keynan has raised is what was raised when the Constitution was being passed. Does life begin at conception, or when you are alive? If he is talking about conception, that then is a different matter. As an old man, I belong...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, the Deputy Majority Leader is my friend and a man I respect a lot. I kindly request him to withdraw that allegation because this is a House of records and procedure. Without any substantiation, you cannot say that Mr Michael Mubea was the face of corruption. He...

Hon. Temporary Chairman, this amendment is good on the face of it because why procure when you do not have money? Why not wait until you get the money? This is a good amendment, but it will make it difficult for the Government because it thrives on other people’s money....

I want to seek clarification from the Chairperson. I want to tell him that what the court provided is the definition of ‘paid’. But that is a ruling of the court. Now, we are legislating for the court. We can put what the court is saying in a proper legislative...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Chairman. The Temporary Chairman (Hon. Farah Maalim) : Order, Hon. Members. Hon. Temporary Chairman is going to make a ruling on this. Yes, Hon. Junet Mohamed. Hon. Temporary Chairman, I have listened to the Leader of the Majority Party very keenly. He has...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairman. Leader of the Majority Party, this is a House of rules and procedures. This is not the first time we are doing the Third Reading of the Tax Laws (Amendment) Bill. Usually before we start, the substantive Speaker normally gives a communication that the following...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Chairman. The Temporary Chairman (Hon. Farah Maalim) : What is your point of order, Leader of the Minority Party? Chair, I keenly listened to the Leader of the Majority Party. Other than the policies on substituting local manufacturing with imported tiles that he...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I second. (Question proposed)

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I second. (Question proposed)

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Is that the Leader of the Minority Party? What is out of order? There is nothing that is out of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. This is the Third Reading and we are allowed to say something. Yes. I want to use that...

Hon. Speaker, I second. (Hon. Joyce Kamene stood in the aisle)

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to seek your indulgence on a matter of importance. For quite some time now, Parliament has been under attack from the religious leaders and other groups. We are not Members of Parliament by accident. We were elected by the people of Kenya. (Applause)

Yes! You are right, Hon. Speaker. Imagine in Kisii, they had 45 aspirants. You cannot bastardise a position that has been given by the Constitution. The people donate their sovereignty and yet, they are saying that Parliament is useless and has been captured. In this afternoon Sitting, we have passed...

Yes! Very important Bills. For example, the Higher Education Loans Board (Amendment) Bill and the Public Finance Management (Amendment) (No.4) Bill. These Bills will make the lives of Kenyans better, help in the governance of this country and make it easier to access Government services. So, I feel very bad...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand to second the Motion on the debate of the President's Speech during the State of the Nation Address. The Leader of the Majority Party has eloquently spoken about his Speech. If you are a President and have the Leader of the Majority Party on...
