I am not aware of the dispute in 1992. I am actually answering the Question that he has put to us.

• 31 May 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we are accepting that Kenyans have said that they want districts. So, we have thrown the ball back to them and given them a few criteria items to consider. So, we are not going to impose new districts on Kenyans where they do not need them. view
• 31 May 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, our intention as a Government is not to create more problems for Kenyans. But we believe that Kenyans wherever they are, together with their leaders - like hon. Members - can sit and resolve these problems without necessarily inviting Government to use force or any other method.

• 4 May 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have not issued any letters of termination to 26 chiefs and assistant chiefs in Bahari. However, we have sent out several letters to chiefs and assistant chiefs, asking them to show cause why disciplinary action should not be taken against them for failing to do one or two things.

Members, for failing to do one or two ... view
