Junet Sheikh Nuh Mohamed

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) I second.

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) I have seconded. (Hon. Anthony Oluoch and other Members consulted loudly)

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. At the outset, I stand to second the Motion for the approval of the nominees. I also support the Motion because, as you said earlier, it is the constitutional responsibility of this House to make...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Some of the Members in the Majority Side are being disturbed by what happened in the vetting Committee, precisely, the rejection of one of the nominees. We must have a vetting Committee and what it did must be taken very seriously. The Committee spent...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) As a Committee, when we say that someone is not suitable for this job, we are not imputing any improper motive on that person. We are just saying that, that person is not suitable for this job, but can do another job elsewhere. We...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) More than half of the Cabinet members that were vetted by this House at the beginning of the term are at home. It is the prerogative of this 7th August 2024 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 19 Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM)House to decide who...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, I am very happy that the Leader of the Majority Party has allowed me to inform him. He has said that the cabinet secretaries must serve the country. We are suffering in this country. We have a Deputy President who is serving...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Today is a heavy day for me because the people this House is losing who are going to the Executive are people I have worked with very closely. Hon. Mbadi was our Leader of the Minority Party in the 12th...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) I want to conclude by assuring them that, now that we are remaining here, we will make sure that we do our work. We will continue from where they have stopped. We wish them well and want them to serve Kenyans irrespective of their...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, this matter is settled by your last statement. You need to write to the President to agree to tell him that the House has agreed with his Message in the memorandum. What Members are contemplating on is the fact that when a...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) On a point of order.

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, I wish to comment on this matter.

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, it is true but this is a very weighty matter - the Memorandum from the President on the Finance Bill.

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) For the simple reason that when you look at this Memorandum, you realise that Kenyans have not understood how Parliament operates or what stages a Bill goes through. That is First Reading, Second Reading, Third Reading and also what happens when a Bill is...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Madagascar. You are right, Hon. Speaker. (Loud consultations)(Applause)

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, lastly, my last point.

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) In your Communication, other than the issues that came back from the President, is the issue of how to deal with the Supplementary Estimates I and the County Allocation of Revenue Act. I urge this House to re-look at those things objectively. It is...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) On a point of order, Hon. Speaker.

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, in Parliament, they normally say that what you communicate is final. I am not sure whether this list is correct. (Laughter)(Loud consultations)

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) For the people who have been nominated again, we know what they told us in the previous vetting. If their records of net worth do not match, they should know that we will throw them, not out through the door, but the window. The...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) I am concluding. It is this House that will ensure that Kenyans get value for their money. If any of my brothers and sisters who have been nominated know that they do not qualify, they should just leave early before they appear before this...

Hon. Junet Mohammed (Suna East, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me an opportunity. I have heard what Hon. Mbadi has said. In my view, now that we are dealing with a very important issue of the Finance Bill, I think it is important we go on recess so...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, in line with your guidance, I also had an amendment and I thank you for giving me this opportunity to withdraw it. But for the orderly business of the House, I want to bring to your attention that as a Minority group,...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) On a point of order, Hon. Chair. Hon. Chairlady Unfortunately, Hon. Junet, we have already passed that amendment. Do you want to speak on something else? Go on with your point of order. Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Chairlady, I can see...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Before I give you our tellers, I want to seek your indulgence. This is not the first time we are voting manually or verbally. We have done this before and we will do so with decorum. You have clearly stated...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, we still seek your indulgence. Because we are very many in this House and all Members are available, we cannot hear ourselves properly. Allow us to use the microphone so that people can be heard loud and clear voting ‘yes’ or ‘no’....

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker, for your guidance, which was well-researched. However, it is the view of the minority side that on this matter of the Finance Bill, we vote manually or orally or through roll call. On this one, people do not...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) On a point of order, Hon. Speaker.

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, I seek your indulgence. As you are aware, there is time for everything. (Loud consultations)

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, as you are aware, there is time for debate and voting in Parliament. Some of our Members on my side took an early lunch of ugali and nyama by 10.00 a.m. They are here so that their vote can count. Having debated...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Deputy Speaker, I stand under Standing Order 35 and ask whether there is quorum in the House. Please ascertain whether there is quorum in the House. Muende nyumbani Bwana. Muache kutusumbua!.

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) I thank you, Hon. Speaker for your guidance. Having said that, can you… (Hon. Ruth Odinga stood in front of Hon. Junet Mohamed) Hon. Speaker Order, Hon. Ruth Odinga. It is out of order to stand between a Member on his feet and the...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, Hon. Millie has graduated to a grandmother. Hon. Speaker Go on, Hon. Junet. Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand to oppose the Finance Bill 2024. When it was tabled for the First Reading, I took a...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, I have not spoken about that. I talked about rubber. I did not speak about assembled and non-assembled. You must be in a different House or the Uasin Gishu County Assembly. (Laughter)

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker. We are now in the Plenary of the House and not in the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning. The decision on the Bill will be made on the Floor of this House, not in the Committee. Where Hon. Kamket comes...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) I thank you, Hon. Speaker for your guidance. Having said that, can you… (Hon. Ruth Odinga stood in front of Hon. Junet Mohamed) Hon. Speaker Order, Hon. Ruth Odinga. It is out of order to stand between a Member on his feet and the...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, I seek your indulgence on a matter that is also very important to the House. As you are aware, in this month of June, we are dealing with financial issues. Tomorrow, the Cabinet Secretary will be here to give us highlights on...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, this matter that Hon. Jared has raised is of national importance. We are dealing with the Offices of the President and the Deputy Presidency, as the Member for Budalangi, Hon. Wanjala, says. (Hon. Raphael Wanjala spoke off the record) Yesterday, I saw...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. Hon. Speaker Order, Leader of the Majority Party. Yes, Hon. Junet. What is the point of order? Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, I wish to ask the Leader of the Majority Party whether he...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM)Hon. Temporary Speaker, I stand to support the amendments by the Senate. Let us be honest to ourselves and to Kenyans. Some of the counties you see in this country have seen Ksh1 billion for the first time in their lives after devolution. We shall,...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, Hon. Makilap is a former Speaker of Baringo County. It will be sad if he will be used to derail devolution in this country. We are dealing with a Budget of Ksh3.9 trillion, which is almost Ksh4 trillion. We are giving...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Today is indeed a sad day for our country. For sure, this was not the expectations of Kenyans today. They expected an indictment because of what happened in this country by supplying fake fertiliser to Kenyans. It is a very grievous matter. For us...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I would like to ask a supplementary question. Firstly, I do not understand which law the concept of the whole- of-the-government approach is anchored on. I do not know what it is. I know there is the Ministry of Labour...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) On a point of order, Hon. Speaker.

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, I do not know whether you have listened to the Cabinet Secretary keenly. She has put up a very rosy picture that the hospitals are working and that KNH is full. She has also said that the doctors in Level 4 and...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, in line with the Adjournment Motion that has been moved by Hon. Sarah Korere, while you were away on other parliamentary business last week, Hon. (Dr) James Nyikal sought an adjournment motion. He stood under Standing Order 33 (1) to move a...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, with those few remarks, I seek clarification on whether Hon. Nyikal’s adjournment motion was procedurally done or not.
