• 7 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I was saying that imports and exports of a particular country dictate the strength of that currency. We know it too well that our imports well outweigh our exports and that has a bearing on the Kenyan currency. For example, in November last year during the Euro crisis, we know too well that many other currencies other than the Kenyan currency were affected. The countries which were affected had the same problems. The export that we did was only US$760 million while our imports stood at US$1.453 billion. This gave us a deficit of US$693 million. ... view

• 7 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, actually, I said at that time. I gave comparisons between the Kenya Shilling and other currencies which were equally affected. That is common knowledge to everybody. We should say that we must commend our Governor because the Shilling now is appreciating. So, in as far as the recommendations of the Committee are concerned, they target an individual. We must stop this business. Kenyans have started thinking very seriously about every committee in this House. Whenever a Committee--- view
• 7 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am well aware of those many other recommendations which I have no problem with.

• 7 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, one of the recommendations of the Committee is that the Governor should step aside and that is what I am challenging. That is one of them! I was saying - before I was interrupted - that every other time we form a committee, Kenyans are getting worried as to who will sink with the report. Yes, committees are there to interrogate and bring prudent reports to this House, so that we can save the face of the country. We are here to support any reasonable recommendations. But when we say individuals must go, we must oppose. view

• 6 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I was only concerned by various points of orders against the Minister, asking him to table things which are actually in the public domain. All of us who are able to read and comprehend, this inflation business, we all know about the Euro crisis which affected the whole world. Even in the biggest economy in Africa, South Africa, its Rand was affected. That is common knowledge. So, I do not think it is a requirement on the part of the Minister to table any such report; we are all aware of it. It is a fact. ... view
• 1 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Whenever there are conflicts in pastoral communities and specifically in those parts of the northern districts, schools are worst affected in that region.

• 1 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: 9 Thursday, 1st March, 2012 (P) either fighting or in conflict are displaced and some of them even volunteer to get out of service all together. We have experienced these problems in Isiolo, Marsabit and Moyale as currently seen by everybody and it must have been appreciated by this House.
