• 19 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I said, the law is not applied selectively. It applies to every citizen of Kenya, Ministers, included. I know that three or four months ago, the Permanent Secretary, Secretary to the Cabinet and Head of Public Service issued a circular to all Ministers and drivers of VIPs to stop overlapping and flouting traffic rules. I am aware of that because my office received such a circular. view

• 18 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am not aware of the said politician. It would be very useful if the hon. Member gave me the name of that politician.

I will need your guidance on that. view
