• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The Chairman of the Committee had made some remarks. I want a clarification so that I can be on the same page with him. First and foremost, the name of Omar Faraj is missing from that report. The second issue relates to the matter raised by the Member for Maralal and the Member for Nyali. As hon. Junet has said, it is vital that since it seems that the Government has not been able to set up an independent tribunal to investigate extra-judicial killings that are suspected to have been carried out by the ... view

• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. That is what I am requesting for – that the report should include the name of Omar Faraj and the issue of whether we should set up a separate tribunal to investigate the extra-judicial killings and the fate of the extra suspects that were sent to Uganda, in respect of whom there is no report whatsoever. I hope that they will also tell us whether the court that declared the renditions illegal is less of a power on the account that we have signed the East African Community Treaty. Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy ... view
• 5 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, hon. Speaker. As a Member of the Committee, which has been able to collectively come up with this very comprehensive report, I wish to re-emphasise what hon. Asman Kamama has just mentioned about the French Revolution. When Marie Antoinette saw that the people were revolting, she asked: “Why are the people revolting?” She was told: “Because there is lack of bread.” Due to disconnect between government and the people, she replied: “In the absence of bread, let them have cake.” Hon. Speaker, this is exactly what is going to happen if, as a House, we do ... view
• 5 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Kwa hoja ya nidhamu, Bw. Spika. Ningependa kuzungumza kwa lugha ya taifa ambayo ndugu yangu mhe. Wario ametumia. Katika mjadala wake ambao anaouzungumzia, kwanza ni kuwa lawama haiko kwa Erad lakini kwa NCPB. Ile hisia ambayo anaileta kwa Bunge hili na katika Kenya nzima ni kuwa ripoti hii inaisafisha NCPB, ambayo sio ukweli wa maneno. Katika maneno yake ambayo nimemkatiza sasa hivi--- view
• 22 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir. Pursuant to Standing Order No.44(2)(c), I wish to seek a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security regarding the recent killing of clergymen within Kilifi and Mombasa counties. On 8th October, I requested a Statement from the Chairperson of this Committee regarding the killing of some Muslim Sheikhs and the Chairperson had requested one month to be able to give us an answer. There have been hatred and negative sentiments regarding killings of religious leaders. view
• 22 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: On the morning of 20th October, 2013, Pastor Charles Mathole of the Redeemed Gospel Church in Mombasa and Pastor Ibrahim Kithaka from the East African Pentacostal Church in Kilifi were killed almost simultaneously. This has made a number of churches within Mombasa believe that it is a religious attack. This was in addition to the burning of the Salvation Army Church, which is in my constituency. In his Statement, I would like the Chairperson to inquire and report on the above request and the previous request for Statement that I had made. He could combine these Statements so that we ... view
• 22 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: My request is whether these Statements could be consolidated and we get one comprehensive answer within the very long timeframe that they had requested of one month. I would like to remind the Chairman that he has less than 18 days left. view
