• 2 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is the Assistant Minister in order to say that the ratio for Isiolo is safely in place and yet, our people are suffering from hunger? view
• 2 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I was in the constituency the whole of last week and part of this week. In fact, I came back on Monday evening. I toured the entire constituency. There is no food that has been distributed out of the current emergency policy in the entire Isiolo District. It is only the normal small ratios which are not anywhere near being sufficient. In fact, they are part of the food-for-work programme. I even inspected one of the projects. Why is he misleading the House? view
• 2 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I heard Dr. Khalwale talking about a hide and seek game. Are we playing any games here? I thought we deal with serious business in this House. view
• 2 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to bring to the attention of the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Local Government that contrary to what he has said about the school feeding programme, it is non-existent. Our schools have not received any food from the schools feeding programme. I want him to take note of that. However, I would like to seek the following clarification: It is now ten days since the Prime Minister went to northern Kenya and up to now, even with the mention of the Army and the NYS trucks, there has been nothing extra other than the ... view
• 19 Jan 2011 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity. I want to thank the Mover of the Motion for bringing the Motion at the right time and the Members for supporting it very strongly and unanimously. view
• 19 Jan 2011 in National Assembly: As much as possible, I want to avoid what the previous speakers have said and, perhaps, cover areas that have not been addressed. Like everybody else has said, drought is not new to us. It has happened before and has been very severe in the past. It is more severe every other time because of the climatic changes. This should not be an emergency in any way because it is something we are aware of. We ought to have planned how to mitigate this. The problem is that as soon as we are through with a drought, we tend to ... view
• 19 Jan 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if you pick your constituency, since you are my neighbour, there are areas where water tankering have been done for now about five to six years. This has become routine. If you go and do water tankering again and another year you do the same, that is a very serious matter. There is somebody who is not doing his job. It is high time we started making people accountable. Human beings need a bit of pushing sometimes. There must be some sanctions for human beings to act. A lot of times we go to the Mosque ... view
• 19 Jan 2011 in National Assembly: Under emergencies, a lot of resources have been allocated. Accountability needs to be enhanced during emergencies. Under emergencies, there has been a lot of misappropriations and misuse of public funds. Indeed, the Ministers responsible are here and I can see the Deputy Leader of Government Business. I know the Members of the Public Accounts Committee are also here. We need a special audit on all the emergencies. As soon as we are through, there is need for a special audit report by the Controller and Auditor-General, so that we can ensure that there is transparency and people are not out ... view
• 19 Jan 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, with those remarks, I beg to support. view
