4 Nov 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, my point of order is that she has asked for two weeks, but the truth is that there is no traffic moving on that road. I requested that we be allowed a mere Kshs5 million for a bit of murraming of the bad sections so that traffic can flow. As we wait for the two weeks, could she make an undertaking that she will go to the Ministry tomorrow and convey our request as the people of Kakamega County?

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It is nice that you brought up this matter when the Senate Majority Leader is here. He solicited for our signatures yesterday requesting that we ask the Speaker to convene the House on Friday, which we signed. Could he clarify how the Friday that we signed became Saturday?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this pipeline is very old. For that reason, it is open to corrosion, internally and externally. Could the Chairman tell the country when the entire pipeline, from the beginning to the end, will be replaced, because this leakage can recur any time, anywhere? Finally, the taxpayer lost 800,000 litres per hour for 10 hours. Could the Chairman tell us how that loss will be recovered and who is going to be held responsible for the same?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Ministry of Health has a Quality Assurance Department. As a doctor, I am not satisfied that the mere injection of the drug at the wrong site could be done repeatedly at such an endemic level. Could the Chairperson confirm whether the Quality Assurance Department in the Ministry of Health moved in and established that what she has said is true, up to and including, confirming that the chemical injected into the children’s muscles was not something else other than a vaccine?
