• 2 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, having said that, I believe that there are some very inefficient Ministers who have served their term and who should give way. I want to encourage His Excellency the President not to be afraid of relieving such people of their Ministerial duties. We shall give him our full support. There are very many young Members of Parliament who are able to serve with a lot of energy. view
• 2 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: An area of concern when you talk about reforms is the Judiciary. It is still lagging behind We have not seen any improvement in the last many years. I believe that matter should come to the Floor of this House. We want to, specifically, discuss the Judiciary, because it is a hindrance to development. The rights of individuals who own property are abused every day and the Judiciary is not able to correct those inequities. When a matter lasts 20 years in court and the litigants die in the process, it is not justice at all. As they say, justice ... view
• 2 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: In conclusion, I want to thank His Excellency the President for giving my district two new divisions. I would like to urge the Office of the President to give us locations. But we do not need a division without a location. A division cannot be a location. view
• 2 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I thank you and His Excellency the President for his Speech. view

• 10 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is Dr. Khalwale in order to mislead this House that he is a professional like Mr. Okemo, when we know that he is a medical doctor who does not understand figures? view
• 11 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Motion. This Sessional Paper is very important for our country. I want to thank the Minister for thinking about this policy paper. I just want to highlight one or two issues which will go a long way in support of this Motion. view
• 11 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: The first one is that the Sessional Paper has not taken into account the issue about the rich. There are many people who are over 65, but very rich. I think they should be excluded from this policy. I hope the Minister is noting this because there is no need to include them, however old they are. We should let the little resources be shared among the poor. view
• 11 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, secondly, I would have loved that this policy goes along with the implementation of a scheme that would involve the construction of homes for the aged across the country, hopefully in each constituency because we are coming to an age where some of these old people do not even have homes, dependants or support from their children. Some of them actually do not even have children. view
• 11 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: Thirdly, I would like to propose that since some of these people who are over 65 years of age are still very able, they should be deployed wherever possible in support programmes in this context of supporting the aged. view
