On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The year 2006 is a long time ago. The Assistant Minister belongs to a party which promised âmaisha boraâ to the citizens of this country. Rather than committing himself to investigate the matter, he has become defensive. Is he in order to deny this old man the maisha bora, which his own party promised him?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, the residents of Yatta and the larger Machakos County will be very happy to have a university within the country and in particular, one dealing with issues of agriculture. That is why we felt that the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology could probably take it upon itself to initiate the move rather than wait for the NYS to approach the Ministry for that purpose. So, as the Ministry considers where to put up new universities, we would like them to consider the Yatta NYS Training Centre. There are four centres in Yatta. So, they could ...

I do not have such a farm manager and no such report was ...

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. If senior personalities like the Vice-President and Minister for Home Affairs can be in the House very early in the morning and very busy, and senior Ministers like the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance can be here, what reason would a very âsmallâ Minister or a âsmall manâ for that matter, have, for not being in the House? You have been very kind to this House. Could I request the Chair to sanction that this particular Minister does not transact any business in this House until he explains why ...
