• 5 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. This is a very important Question because we want to save our youth and protect enterprise be it by the East African Breweries Limited or Coca Cola. We are doing a good job as Parliament. Is this Minister in order to intimidate the House simply because he got a degree in chemistry when we know that our students who get a straight "A" in chemistry at Form Four have the capacity to understand a simple question? Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would kindly request the House that this matter be left ... view

• 5 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have no reason to believe the results from the school laboratories or the results of the producer or not. The Minister should tell us what tests he has subjected this drink to, to determine whether, indeed, when Alvaro is exposed for some time, it has the capacity to undergo fermentation, so as to turn into alcohol. I happen to come from a history of traditional alcohol and I know that when you leave sugar in a container for some time, it actually transforms into real alcohol. That is exactly what happens to busaa . Could ... view
• 5 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for that ruling. But can I request the indulgence of the Chair that you rule further that since the Minister has admitted that this drink has the capacity to undergo fermentation when it is left open, that, in the meantime, it should not be sold to the public and in supermarkets, so as to prevent our children from consuming it when it is fermented? view
• 5 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have a copy of the concession agreement and in it, there is a pre-condition that before these people were allowed to go ahead, they should have paid a down payment of US$3 billion but there is no evidence whatsoever that these people paid this money which was a pre-condition. Why did the Minister go ahead and allow them to take over our company? view
• 5 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I said that I have a copy of the agreement. Allow me to lay it on the Table and refer the Minister to page 49 which set the US$3 billion down payment as a pre-condition! Could he, please, after confirming that it is there - which I lay on the Table - give us evidence that the down payment of US$3 billion was actually paid? view

• 5 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Revelations by Mr. Namwamba confirm only one thing, that there is corruption in this issue at the highest office in this country. Could I request the Chair to compel my colleague on the Opposition Bench to actually name the high ranking Minister who actually abetted this process of corruption that took away from the poor people of Kenya such a State valued corporation? view
• 5 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. as a follow up to what Mr. Imanyara has said, the wisdom of having put Standing Orders No.88 and No.89; which stipulate that if a Minister does not give an answer which is sufficient, lies to the House or misleads the House, he or she is grossly out of order, is to make sure that Ministers come to the House when prepared and give us the true reflection of the answers to the Questions raised. So, for the Prime Minister to suggest that this House can only be treated to second ... view
• 5 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I request that you also rule that my Ministerial Statement which was on the status quo at the military headquarters be answered the same time tomorrow because I have talked to the Minister and he is also ready. view
