• 2 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Minister for Local Government is the able Deputy of the Prime Minister and the Prime Minister was speaking on behalf of the same Government which is inefficient to the extent that besides the things we task them on, even merely coming to respond to Questions, they are not able. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, can you rule that this Government is not able to function without a Leader of Government Business? It is the absence of the Leader of Government Business which is the reason they are not able to whip Ministers to come to this ... view
• 1 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to ask the Minister for Youth Affairs and Sports the following Question by Private Notice. (a) Is the Minister aware that two Kenyan community football clubs; AFC Leopards and SOFAPAKA, which have qualified to represent Kenya in continental championships risk failure to participate due to financial constraints? (b) What is the Minister doing urgently to arrest the above threat since the two teams have to immediately go into camp for training? view

• 1 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, what the Minister has done is to merely congratulate SOFAPAKA FC and AFC Leopards. She has also gone ahead to pray for them to do well. The Question is about fair treatment of football clubs, just in the way the Ministry pays for volleyball, athletics and rugby teams. Why can they not pay for football clubs? Through the constituencies, the Ministry gave Kshs210 million to youth at the grassroots level to develop soccer in this country. How does she want them to grow if she does not perfect the top? So, part “b” of the Question seeks ... view

• 1 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: On a Point of Order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Minister was asked to state the scores the candidates achieved in this interview. I have with me a copy of the results of the interview; they have listed all the candidates from number one to ten, showing the scores. This is my profession, and some of the candidates who are here are personally known to me. They are outstanding doctors, or minds, in this country. They include Dr. Maurice Simiyu, who was the Chairman of the Association of Medical Students of the University of Nairobi (AMSUN) when I was in the ... view
• 1 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of Order. Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Minister should not mislead the House by suggesting that he failed to appoint Dr. Maurice Simiyu and Dr. Robert Ayisi because they were serving at that college. Dr. Ayisi serves at the NASCOP, and Dr. Simiyu is a consultant in private practice. They do not work at the KMTC. He is out of order to mislead us. view
• 1 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. When this Parliament was faced with a similar challenge in the case of the appointment of hon. Ringera by the Executive, the Chair came out categorically and very clearly; that this House cannot abandon its oversight role when the Executive is seen to abuse the law. Could the Chair also use this opportunity to find that it is necessary that the appointment be set aside until Parliament has gone to the bottom of the issue? view
• 26 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is a fact that CIT services is a Kshs12 billion business in this country. The best practices in the larger economies is that CIT is a special service that is left to the CIT companies to manage by way of training their own personnel, paying them and so on. In this country, the Government spends millions of shillings to train police officers. It then wastes them by giving them out to CIT companies which pay them Kshs500 only. What plans does the Assistant Minister have to completely withdraw police officers from this service so that CIT ... view
