• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Prime Minister has advanced very compelling reasons, which he purports to be based on the law for the decision that the Cabinet took. However, he has not given us anything documentary to negate the resolution of this House. There is nothing to confirm that the investigations have now been completed. There also is nothing to convince us that they acted in line and in respect of Chapter Six of the new Constitution. view
• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, if the Government is not practising double standards, why was this decision not applied in the case of hon. William Ruto, after the High Court discharged the hon. Member? Why is hon. William Ruto not in the Cabinet, if it is not a question of applying double standards? Why is hon. Harun Mwau not back in office given that he was exonerated by the Minister in the allegations that were made against him? view
• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: My second point is on the issue of personal interest, which I alluded to at the beginning. Could the Prime Minister tell us that he was going out of his way because he wanted to return a favour to hon. Wetangula because hon. Wetangula had assisted him in giving an opportunity to his kith and kin in landing Government jobs in respect of the appointment of Dr. Wenwa Odinga, who is a sister of the Prime Minister, to Los Angeles, in respect of the appointment of Mr. Elkana Odemba, who is the Prime Minister’s brother-in-law, in Washington DC--- view
• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the way I understand the Standing Orders is that his argument would only hold if I was making that allegation against an hon. Member of the House. All I am doing is confirming my assertion that it could be. We want him to clarify. I am not saying that it is a fact. It is a question of the matter being clarified. I do not know, but was it because he was returning a favour in respect of the appointments of his sister, Dr. Wenwa Odinga, his brother-in-law, Elkana Odemba, his cousin and former PA, Mr. David ... view
• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, maybe, only the Chair can protect some of us. We saw it last week, and we are seeing it today. When we seek clarification from the Prime Minister, there is nothing personal. view

• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, obviously, all the appointments are a process and that process includes the very appointments, the recommendations and the forwarding of the names. The Minister has a role he plays in that process, and the Minister played that role in these cases. If only the Prime Minister could be allowed to respond to that clarification, it would settle the matter. Therefore, allow me to conclude. view
• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, he should clarify whether Josephine Awuor, a relative of his spouse, who is in Harare, is also the one who is causing this favour to be returned? Michael Oyugi, a Director--- view
• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the conclusion is that if, indeed, it was a question of relying on authentic investigatory reports to make a decision, why did the Government ignore the report by the Cocker Commissioner which recommended that Mr. Kimunya and Prof. Ndung’u of the Central Bank of Kenya were not fit to hold public office? view
