23 Mar 2006 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Am I in order to request the Chair to ask the hon. Member to also lay on the Table a copy of the passports which he showed to the Press? Considering that when you move at all immigration desks in the world, you never leave a photocopy of your passport; it is merely stamped. If he does not have special connections with those people, where did he get those photocopies of their passports?

23 Mar 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to start by declaring that I believe that, as I sit here, I am not sitting in a 23 March, 2006 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 75 satanic place. I believe, as a Christian, that I am sitting in a very holy place and, therefore, I would like to exonerate only one symbol whose meaning I understand that is out there.

I also want to say the same about the short speech by the Speaker of the National Assembly. The issue of the economy, as evidenced in the President's Speech, captured my imagination. For the economy of Kenya, over a very short period of three years, to grow from negative to 2.8 per cent in 2003 to 4.3 per cent in 2004 and finally, to 5 per cent in 2005, is not a mean achievement.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do not want to exhaust my time without commenting on the issue of corruption. This is not a joke! Where we have reached, we have forgotten that corruption is not a political game. It hurts the poor who vote for us to come here; the poor whom we represent.

22 Mar 2006 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am wondering whether the Chair could help us on this issue. I believe what is going to give us the way forward is the respect for traditions of this House. This is not the first time this is happening! Could you guide us on what happened in the Eighth Parliament when Mr. Raila was a Member of the House Business Committee and in the Opposition as NDP? When he moved, did he move with that position?
