• 8 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I know you will make a ruling on the point of order raised by Mr. Duale.

• 7 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I thank you for that directive. However, maybe the Chair wants to remember that again in this House in this Tenth Parliament, this issue came up with the same Minister after he overlooked a recommendation for appointment of the Director of Kenya Medical Training College.

• 7 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to seek for a Ministerial Statement from the Prime Minister of Kenya in respect of the arrest in the United Kingdom and the expected extradition to Kenya of the fugitive businessman, Mr. Yagnesh Devani.
