Yes, hon. Deputy Speaker. Thank you for this opportunity. I support my colleague’s Petition strongly because managements of most of our co-operative societies do not really work for the development of societies; they end up being the people who mismanage the same and you get most co-operative societies being liquidated. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I was in the co-operative movement for 15 years and I know what has been happening. Most of the societies which go under do so because of mismanagement. Therefore it is important that we remove this liquidator; most liquidators sell assets of co-operatives at very low, or ...

On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I seek your guidance, especially on asking of these Statements. Hon. Members are asking for Statements here and the Chairs of different Committees are giving promises on the dates they are going to bring the Statements. I would request that even if the answer is not ready when the promised date comes, they bring an interim answer and say when they will bring the main answer. Why am I saying so? I asked for a Statement sometime in June and I was given two weeks. To date, I have not seen it. ...

when overloaded, move at very low speeds and they ride in the middle of the road. That is why they cause accidents. Do we really have plans to construct lanes for them? Initially, there were no boda bodas in our roads. But now, they have come onto our roads like a storm. They over-crowd the roads and that is why we get accidents and the “ Boda Boda wards.” Let us mitigate and curb those accidents so that we do not invest in wards, but in saving those boys from accidents.

Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to air my sentiments. Hon. Deputy Speaker, on 2nd July 2014, I asked a question to the Chairman of Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security. When I was requesting the statement he was not present; therefore, the matter was taken over by the Leader of Majority Party. The Leader of Majority Party said very categorically that my request was very simple and clear, and it would be responded to in one week’s time. When the Chairperson of the Committee walked in this Chamber, I gave him a copy of ...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, I have two clarifications to seek from the Chair. He should follow up issues in the Committee when he meets the Commission. He said that there are gazetted units, or areas, where the recruitment was being undertaken. Some units have several constituencies. If the exercise was done without using constituencies as units, some areas were disadvantaged to the extent that the recruitment was done in one centre serving two constituencies. For example, my constituency was lumped together with Igembe South. My constituency was disadvantaged because the two constituencies shared the 25 slots instead of one constituency getting ...

The second issue is that the exercise was to start at 8.00 a.m. and end at 5.00 p.m., but in some areas it went up to 4.00 a.m., so that corruption could be accommodated. Under the cover of darkness, these things happened. Legally, if the exercise was supposed to end at 5.00 p.m., why did it go on up to 4.00 a.m.? The exercise should be nullified in those areas. Finally, as my brother has said, we should know who is going to do the investigations. Is it the same people who were corrupted who are going to undertake the ...
