11 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has told us that the Free Day Secondary Education portion of Kshs10,265 forms the bulk of the school fees in day schools. Could he direct that day secondary schools should pay a specific amount of school fees? This is because as soon as Free Secondary Education was brought in, some rogue heads of schools went ahead to raise the school fees to the extent that even after the Kshs10,265 was availed, poor parents were left with no option but to have their children drop out. Could the Assistant Minister direct the schools fees that ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, the section between Kakamega and Kisumu was built in 1962 and the section between Kakamega and Webuye was built in 1972. What happens when the Treasury sits with donors or development partners? Why is it that over a period of 50 years, this road which is very important, has never received priority consideration from the Government so that a development partner can be involved? Eight years since the Kibaki Government came into power---. This is the same road that, when

11 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I think the House deserves an answer from the Minister. That is because the hon. Member asked him whether he was going to step aside now that his docket is under investigations. My point of order is: Is the Minister in order to refuse to respond to the question when, in fact, I have a letter here signed by none other than his own Permanent Secretary, written to the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) confirming that, indeed, the clearance of over-age vehicles is under investigations? Since the Minister has owned up and said ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, we are really begging you because while you were away from the Chair, it was directed that this matter must come today. That is because we have some poor university students who have been languishing in custody because they could not raise bail of over Kshs500,000. If you were to kick off this matter now, so that the hon. Minister is allowed to inform the Leader of Government Business or his Deputy, then they will be prompted into some form of action. Mr. Speaker, Sir, we beseech you.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, one day in confinement is a very long time. To expect young, Jackson Ngâangâa, a university of Nairobi student who has been asked to raise a bail of Kshs500,000 so as to be given freedom to await the determination of the matter; two weeks is a very long time.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, similarly to expect a junior employee by the name of Justus Mugo of the University of Nairobi, who has similarly been asked to raise a bail of Kshs500,000, is almost impossible.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, could he use this opportunity to convert that bail into a police bond, so that these two people can go home and then come back for the determination of the matter?

4 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I really feel pained that a university student was arrested by this Assistant Minister or his agents together with the innocent employee of the University of Nairobi. In fact, the same Assistant Minister uses his agents to cushion the arrest of an employee of a Minister of the Government who actually went on the ground and interfered with the matter. So that I am not misunderstood, here is a document confirming that one Paul Mutua who is an employee of Windsor Golf and Country Club is the one who is interfering ...
