• 30 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Yes, hon. Speaker. I agree with you. I do not want the public to see that we are full in the House just because we want to get the numbers. We have a mandate to serve the people of Kenya. It is a Tuesday afternoon when we are supposed to be in Parliament and I am sure the colleagues who went out are having tea, according to the Whips. Before we put the Question, the Bell will be rung and I am sure there are many Members who will come back. If we can raise quorum, that will be okay. ... view
• 30 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I stand to support the VAT Bill, 2013, of course with amendments that I am sure the Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade will bring forth. We want to make it categorical that as a country that wants to be a leader in investment and the hub of financial activities in East Africa, we need to have a modern view
• 25 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, let it be two weeks from today. view
• 25 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I want the Committee in its Report to highlight the transactions and ownership of the KPR. Let it tell us how much was paid for the land and for the equipment. Was the deal above board? Could the Committee say whether KPR was sold for US$5 million? Who are the people who were involved in this in the previous Government? view
• 25 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Deputy Speaker. I do not want the Chairman to anticipate the Report. I want to appear before that Committee as the hon. Member for Garissa Town and provide information that the Kenya Government sold that plant for US$5 million, and now he is talking of US$3 million. I want the Chairman to give me the opportunity to appear before them, so that I can raise issues and present documents to show that the land itself is not worth US$3 million. view
• 25 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I do not know why the Member for Karachuonyo is getting agitated. Parliament and its Committees have the right under the Constitution to investigate everything, whether it is investment or not. The Committee on Energy, Communication and Information must go to the bottom of how the KPR was sold to that Indian company. That is the mandate of Parliament. In fact, a Member can even constitute a select committee to investigate the issue. view
• 25 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, Eng. Gumbo is a very good friend of mine. We need to look at the governance structure of this country. Eng. Gumbo has said that we need to engage ole Lenku on this matter. The Committee that hon. Kamama chairs is an extension of this House. When they engage ole Lenku and Mr. Iringo, they do so on behalf of Parliament. So, when the Committee summons the Executive--- It was the wish of the Kenyan people that they asked for a presidential system of governance, that draws a line between the Judiciary, the Executive and the Legislature. ... view
• 25 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: On matters of security, the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security can engage those officers, and any other Member can go and sit on the Committee, so that we get a comprehensive answer to the security situation in the country. It is not for us to say that this House should engage--- We do not expect Ministers to come and sit on the Front Bench. We cannot do it. The structure that we put in place at the referendum when Kenyans approved a new Constitution was one that made sure that ole Lenku cannot be in this House. Unless ... view
• 25 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, the position of chairpersons of Committees of this Eleventh Parliament is in the Standing Orders and the Constitution. They do not talk of messengers. However, for the record, I want to say that I am proud to lead a coalition that won the election. I am proud to be a messenger of a sitting President. At least, I am not a messenger of a leader who lost--- view
• 25 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I want to go on record that I am not a messenger of a failure who lost the elections. I want to go on record that hon. Junet is suffering from the loss of elections. view
