• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, because hon. Shimbwa comes from that place, I do not mind any information from him. If you can give him another chance, it will be fine. On the issues of Maralal, I will advise hon. Lati because it is an isolated issue. But there was an issue between the police and the students. It was reported that a police officer shot at one of the student leaders. The issue has actually brought a lot of tension in that place. So, I would advise hon. Lati to ask for a substantive answer and also confirmation that ... view
• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, hon. Munuve raised the issue of proliferation of small arms and light weapons. I agree that we have quite a lot of illegal guns in the hands of civilians. While we were in Mombasa during our retreat, I even told His Excellency the President that something has to be done about this issue. So, we will still come up with ways of addressing the problem. In fact, as a Committee, we intend to engage the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and Coordination of National Government on how to mop up illegal guns in this country. I want ... view
• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: the police as raised by hon. Ndegwa of Lamu West, this is an issue that is being addressed by the Police Service Commission (Amendment) Bill, which will be tabled today or tomorrow. We will also have the National Police Service (Amendment) Bill, which is meant to address all the systemic failures within the Police Force. I want hon. Members to participate and give recommendations or amendments, when the Bill comes up for debate. Lastly, I want to confirm to hon. Nassir that the issue of the three missing people will be addressed by the Committee. However, on the issue of ... view
• 5 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, the issues raised by hon. Magwanga are really grave and require urgent attention by the Government. So, where the police themselves are being killed, a magistrate attacked and 500 people being subjected to death and rape, it is really serious. We need to bring this information in a week’s time. view
• 5 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Speaker. view
• 5 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, my point of order is in relation to the intervention by hon. Serut. Would I be in order to advise hon. Serut to also tell the Committee what they have done to address this issue before the Government comes in because local initiative works better? view
• 5 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Yes, hon. Speaker. I even waited last time for two hours. view
• 5 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I rise to fully support this Motion in its totality because as patriotic Kenyans and as people who want to espouse and even support the war against corruption, we must support this and ensure that anybody who is mentioned is actually cleared by the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Authority (EACC). That has to be done. We will start with this report and other reports will follow. Hon. Speaker, I want to take the House back to the year 1789 during the French Revolution. The French Revolution was caused by scarcity of bread and so there is a lot of ... view
• 5 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: in this country since the British rule. Somebody called Engineer Priston commissioned a railway around 1900 or over 100 years ago. So, a company that has assisted Kenyans and that has been there for over 100 years has been reduced to a shell by almost the same cartels. Kenya Oil Refinery is also a shell, as we speak. So, I want to say with a lot of respect that people who are mentioned and who are my friends need clearance from that respected body called the EACC. So many committees were involved in this. There is the Inter-ministerial Tender Committee; ... view
• 5 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I have a lot of respect for hon. Wario. I used to be a DO in his place. However, is it in order for hon. Wario to insinuate that those of us who are supporting want to clear the other companies? We are not clearing any other company. If he feels or has any information that these companies did anything, he can move an amendment so that they are also investigated and we will support that. view
