• 21 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Yes, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 21 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, what I am trying to emphasize is whether there is a pattern. In our opinion we feel we are doing a favour to the Minister and his team because we want him to enjoy maximum respect. In fact, he would have done himself a favour if by now he would have stepped aside. I have documents here by none other than a number of mission staff, which I will share with you for purposes of confidentiality. The entire Ministry is up in arms. view
• 21 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish to put it again on record that there is a letter here from one Senior Counsel in the Ministry. This is the latest central posting. view
• 21 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the central posting is an inter-Ministerial transfer within the Government and it is normally co-ordinated by the office of the Permanent Secretary, Secretary to the Cabinet and Head of the Civil Service. As a result of this second agreement, which was purportedly signed by the Permanent Secretary, Mr. Thuita was given to one James Gikwaka who used to be a senior counsel in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He left here for Tokyo on 31st January, 2010. He was in Tokyo between that day up to 3rd February, 2010 but because he could not accomplish what he ... view
• 21 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the main work of that individual was to “sanitize” the deal. He was supposed to get hold of the Permanent Secretary, Mr. Thuita’s sale agreement, go to Japan’s Ministry of Lands and replace it with the one earlier signed by Ambassador Mburu. However, in Japan things are very transparent and that did not work. When he came back, the lawyer was moved as an Under-Secretary. I table these documents. He was transferred from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to another Ministry as an Under-Secretary and yet he is supposed to be the Chief Legal Officer in the ... view
• 21 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 14 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 13 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I take this opportunity to thank all hon. Members who have taken time to contribute to this Motion and supported the Report. What we have recommended here is not new to the Kenyan public. Maybe, it is new to a small section of the leadership of the Republic of Kenya. It is unfortunate that since Somalia plunged into a state of war in 1991, the crisis has been commercialized by the neighbouring States. There is no goodwill to serve the view
• 13 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: interests of the people of Somalia. The agenda is to serve the interests of the individuals within the neighbouring states. In the Kenyan context, one thing we must acknowledge as a country is that Kenya comprises of many tribes, including others which have not been acknowledged among the 43 tribes that are mentioned. However, we have forgotten that aspect of our history. What brought us together to share a common border was not by choice but circumstances that were outside the control of the 40 million Kenyans who constitute the bona fide citizens of the Republic of Kenya today. Today, ... view
• 13 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: now, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs manages the Somali foreign policy. The Ministry of State for Defence also manages the Somali foreign policy. Why are those attempts not being harmonized under one group, which is the East African Community? This is why all the attempts that Kenya made to assist the people of Somalia must be taken seriously because Kenya is doing that as a responsible Member of the international community. It is not a privilege. However, these attempts are being negated; one hand makes a good move and the other hand because of commercial interest, corruption and other interests ... view
