But my point of order is in connection with what my good friend, hon. Mungatana, alluded to; that there were meetings that were convened in Limuru, Eldoret and Landmark Hotel.

• 18 Apr 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, first of all, I want to really thank my good friend, hon. Namwamba for coming up with this very important Motion.

(b)When the ... view
• 8 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, first of all the Question on the Order Paper today talks about Dr. Kirumbi. I hope this is a typographical error. We are actually talking about Dr. James Kulubi. I hope that is the person we are discussing today.
