• 3 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to oppose. view
• 3 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is Mr. M. Kilonzo in order to suggest that his party is better organised when, in fact, we know in their purported general meeting, they only held elections for a few people and the rest were to be chosen at the pleasure of the party leader? Is that better organisation? view
• 28 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: On point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. In view of the fact that this matter has generated a lot of interest, I Ja nuary 28, 2009 PARLIAMENTAR Y DEBATES view
• 28 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, in view of the importance of this Motion and the interest it has generated. I propose that each Member, instead of the 30 minutes that is allocated by the rules, be allowed ten minutes. view
• 28 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I thank you for giving me the opportunity to debate this Report. Ja nuary 28, 2009 PARLIAMENTAR Y DEBATES view
• 28 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am asking this House to look at this debate soberly. On Page 60, under Paragraph 6.5, the Committee recommends that we need to amend the Public Procurement and Disposal Act, the Companies Act and others. Is that a wrong recommendation? It is a good recommendation. view
• 28 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: If you look at the recommendations on the Goldenberg-related cases, it is a good one. The recommendation on the Governor of the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) is also a good recommendation. The only thing that is causing tension in this House is the recommendation on whether Mr. Amos Kimunya should continue holding public office or not and whether he conducted himself in a manner worthy of a Minister. This House already passed a recommendation on that matter as well. In my opinion, we should not have a lot of debate on this matter. view
• 28 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: In my very humble opinion, we should adopt this Report. If there are any amendments that must be made to the Report, then let us not say it should be thrown out. Let somebody say, "there is this section I do not like, I want us to adopt the Report with these amendments". As far as I am concerned, let us be sober about this matter. My first point is to support the adoption of this Report. view
• 28 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the second point is that the Grand Regency Hotel is a place that many Kenyans go to. Once in a while even me as a private citizen, I take children there on Sunday afternoons. Before this transaction was done, I used to pay Kshs500 for swimming and other recreational activities. Last Sunday, the shock of my life, we went there and were told that everybody has to pay Kshs1,500 per toddler, child or anybody. We are paying for corruption in this country! view
• 28 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: What was it that made a simple transaction like that suddenly make all citizens of this country pay Kshs1,500 for the facility? There must be some added cost that the new investor is trying to recover. As an ordinary citizen of this country, I will be in this House to say, "we will not accept this kind of thing to happen". Even hidden costs that are added on services and commodities, for example, on road contracts, who pays for them? It is us who pay for these bad roads. Change must start from this House. We must adopt this Report. view
