At the moment, we face a serious problem, and I am uncertain how we will deal with it.This situation partly arises because field officers are no longer doing...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, there is a risk that if you are too careful, you will not speak Swahili well, unlike Hon. Kimani, who volunteered to speak. The cancer menace knows no age, gender, wealth, or poverty. It is with us, and we must recognise it and approach it with the...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, the name Daniel is not mine. For record purposes, I am Gideon. But Ochanda is surely my name. If a stranger came to this country and asked which areas you would find communities fighting one another over cattle rustling and grazing land, they would get the information...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I am a member of the Committee. I want to speak to two things and do away with many other things because I have had the chance to go through them. One is the whole issue of the process. Sometimes, even in Parliament here, we...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

Nothing is really out of order. I just need to take a rider on Hon. Mwalyo’s request. Okay. I allow you one minute. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Mhe. Mwalyo is placing the request correctly in terms of doing bumps for purposes of speed control. However, I generally have a...
