9 Jul 2008 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. It is now 3.40 p.m. One would have thought that since we started the business of the House slightly earlier, probably the civil servants were waiting to come in at 3.30 p.m. Unless the Chair has changed the rules of debate in this House, I submit that we are proceeding with business against the Standing Orders. Civil servants must be here to record the views of hon. Members on how they perceive the Budget. We are out of order. The House must adjourn and give the Minister time to bring her ...

9 Jul 2008 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to address the House on this very important matter. I would also like to thank the Mover for allowing me to second this Motion. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is a fairly straightforward Motion, which I hope the House will, very quickly, see the wisdom of supporting and voting for, so that this can be part of the laws of this country. I say this being aware that inside the Motion, there is an element of limitation. I can see that the Mover has limited the spraying ...

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, a layman in medicine is trying to answer! He is my good elder brother, hon. Wetangula. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the population of this country is now at 37 million. If we were to bring it to around 50 or 60 million, it would be a wake up call for people to see the advantage of human labour; for people to capitalize on their expanded market! Markets are based on human beings. The more the people, the more you can sell your products. I tell those people who think that our country should not ...

Thank you very much! China, which has 1.3 billion people, is a superpower in economics! So, a big population is actually a reason for people to prosper! Today, the life expectancy of Kenyans has risen up to 54 years. That rise has been attributed to the fight against HIV/AIDS in the last 25 years. It had gone down to 46 years. But because of what we have done on the fight against HIV/AIDS, it is now 54 years. If we were to put a similar effort against malaria, we will raise the life expectancy from 54 years to 65 years. ...

We will also ask that all the monies for the control of malaria be channelled to the CDF and then, we can use our youth to create employment! They will be the ones to do the spraying! Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the people of this nation must know that there is a deliberate mischief by multinationals, pharmaceutical companies that manufacture drugs and markets that sell those pharmaceutical. They are not about to encourage us to stop the mosquito menace because, if they do so, they fear the loss of jobs in the countries where those anti-malarial drugs are produced. ...

Oh yes! They fear a world dominated by black people because it is now common knowledge that at any level, where the black man competes with the white man, the black man always comes out number one! Yes! The world boxing champions--- Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I beg to second.

8 Jul 2008 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to thank the Prime Minister and raise something that has not been mentioned all this time that we have been interrogating this issue. This is the trail of the money involved in this deal. In fact, exactly where this money is. Mr. Speaker, Sir, probably the Prime Minister could confirm to this House and nation, whether or not at the height of the post-election violence 10 per cent of the Grand Regency Hotel payment was wired to an account in New York. Could he also tell us who is the holder of this account? ...
