On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Assistant Minister is saying that this is not a matter for his Ministry. Is he in order then to deal with a matter that he is not competent to handle?

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Looking at the Question, I do not see how this matter is going to prejudice this case. The issue is not who owns the land.

Again, the fact that it has been mentioned that there was dispute over the land does not necessarily prejudice this case.

Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, this Assistant Minister seems to have been given wrong information. There is not a single cent that has been paid by this Ministry to the families of the deceased in support of the burial. The coffin was also paid for by the family. Indeed, even there was no vehicle. Even the aircraft was just going to pick the examination. It had to go round the whole of northern Kenya, but finally, it brought the body. Why is he giving wrong information on a matter that is sensitive of this nature?

Yes, it is a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the Assistant Minister to mislead this House when I have a copy of the receipt indicating that the family was paid in Nanyuki when the Assistant Minister here says it was done in Mandera? I have a copy which I hereby table.

Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Assistant Minister is very categorical that on the issue of security, he has handled well. However, he is not sure about the information that he has been given by the Ministry of Education. I would request your indulgence to allow the Ministry of Education because this matter is seriously disputed. I am speaking based on facts, so that they could come here and clarify and substantiate and tell all and sundry that these are the persons who collected the money. This is what has been done, so that the details are tabled here because the ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, this Government is not serious. You know that the price of sugar is very high, the price of maize is unaffordable and now, LPG is also becoming unaffordable. They are pursuing a very dangerous trend. Why can the Government not ensure that there is enough capacity and extra storage for that facility at the Port for at least three months even if we have a problem? Serikali gani hii ?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Assistant Minister for the answer but I want him to confirm that Corporal Mohamed Haru Katu was investigating a case where one of the boda boda operators, by the name Peter Maranga, was shot by police, and this could have been the reason as to why he was killed.
