• 20 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of Order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Every time we make a decision in this House, we create a tradition or we uphold that tradition. I am glad that the voting has ended the way it has. However, on a purely point of procedure, I would like to be guided. Yes, indeed, you have two votes. You have the deciding vote and the casting vote. With all due respect to you, the deciding vote which you have applied today, you apply after the results have been announced to the House and you are perfectly in order. view

• 15 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to ask the Minister for Justice, National Cohesion and Constitutional Affairs the following Question by Private Notice. Could the Minister clarify whether or not the determination and creation of 80 new constituencies before the 2012 General Election will take into account the 2009 census results which were nullified in eight districts in northern Kenya? view
• 15 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in the list of the cases the Attorney-General has read out, I have carefully listened and I have not heard any case where somebody is being sued for forcefully displacing or expelling a Kenyan from his rightful place of settlement, neither has he said whether there is any case where somebody is being tried for forceful acquisition of such land. Since we know that these cases are there, that we have Kenyans who were forcefully displaced, how many cases is the Attorney-General aware relating to these kinds of people? Since there is normalcy in these areas, what ... view
• 15 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, for the second time, I beg to ask the Minister for Justice, National Cohesion and Constitutional Affairs the following Question by Private Notice. Could the Minister clarify whether or not the determination and creation of 80 new constituencies before the 2012 General Elections will take into account the 2009 census results which were nullified in eight districts in northern Kenya? view
• 15 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is a fairly straightforward Question. We just want the Government to be clear. There is the possibility of a long recess and the possibility that during that long recess, the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) will make a decision on this matter; it would have been nice for the answer to this matter to be read by even the Attorney-General, whom I see here, or the Acting Deputy Leader of Government Business. Could they clarify whether they can read out the answer before I agree with them? view
• 15 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, let me strongly say that the constituencies that are affected are in marginal and minority communities areas like Turkana and Kenyan Somali areas. Without Parliament acting, these marginalised communities might be short- changed. Three new constituencies are meant for Turkana, three in Mandera, one in Wajir East and one in Lagdera. We must, surely, find a way of ensuring that this Government, which appears to only share things to favour the two Principals, is going to be conscious of the minority and marginalised communities. More importantly, if they are going to deny these people the constituencies, we ... view
• 15 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. It is quite clear from the Assistant Minister’s Statement what happened in Rongo but the Member of Parliament has talked about something happening in Bomet. We do not know what it is. Would I be in order if I requested him to substantiate so that the House can know what happened in Bomet? view
• 15 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. In fact, my point of order is precisely on the same thing only that it is a different version. It is in public domain that in the incident that took place in Bomet, there were two sitting Members of Parliament, each in charge of a gang. These youths clashed and resulted in the incident that Dr. Kones has said. If, indeed, the Assistant Minister is proactive, what has he done about the two sitting Members of Parliament, one of them who is a Minister? view
