The whole country focused on Turkana when 32 people were killed by Ethiopians. However, when I lost 32 people in one location, nothing happened as much as we tried to raise the matter.

31 May 2011 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have not been provided with a written answer. This question was deferred to today from last week because the Assistant Minister wanted to do some research. I would not feel comfortable to proceed without a written answer.

31 May 2011 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, Tuesday is not okay for me. He can do it on Thursday because he has already admitted that he has the written answer. I believe all it takes is to photocopy it. In fact, with your indulgence, I had requested the Parliamentary staff to get it from him and photocopy for me. But he has refused to give it to them. So, the latest I can accept is Thursday this week!

18 May 2011 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think for the sake of the Minister, I would wish to inform her that I am normally in the office before 7.00 a.m. every day from Monday to Sunday. She is aware of that and I have got an SMS from her congratulating me for that. Nevertheless, I would like to thank the Minister. I think what the Minister was looking for was a chance to inform hon. Members that her Ministry is planning--- Is she planning to set up a fund like the CDF in which we can have Kshs10 billion available to Members ...

18 May 2011 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I must admit that I have not received a satisfactory answer from the Minister. I believe that is why you intervened. Honestly, the Minister has tried to avoid answering questions from every hon. Member who has raised a supplementary question.

With your indulgence, I was asking that so that we can be told whether it was Kshs20 billion. I know about the budget ...
