• 13 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I am on a point of order. I wanted some guidance from the Chair in the sense that the state of Kenya is such that most tribes cross the borders so that you find them in neighboring countries and also in Kenya. In the process, we have some illegal migrations and--- view
• 13 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is a point of order seeking guidance from the Minister. view
• 13 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, like those who had spoken earlier had said, I would also like to pass my condolences to the people of Uganda, many of whom have been injured. Many of them could probably be my relatives across the border. Could the Minister clarify how much effort the Ministry is putting in to make sure that they involve those of us who come from those border communities in all negotiations that might be going on, so that we do not raise situations where some of us become sort of paranoid when our community is mentioned as probably ... view
• 7 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Now that the referendum voting is on 4th August and the polling stations were gazette--- When you go through the voting stations, you will see that their number is skewed in favour of certain parts of this country that have many more polling stations than many other areas that are heavily populated. That is specifically so in parts of Rift Valley where there are many polling centers. Could the Deputy Prime Minister clarify whether that advanced rigging will not affect the referendum results and what will be done to ameliorate that? view

Could the Assistant Minister explain to this House whether there is a set way of handling students’ illnesses when they are in boarding school? If there is such a set standard, when was the last time headteachers were inducted in these procedures? view
• 6 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is the Assistant Minister in order to divert the House to be looking at price control when Ms. Karua’s question was very clear that the Government should have bought the wheat from the farmers to cushion them? That is a different thing from price controls! view
• 1 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wish to thank my colleague, hon. Kaino, for allowing me to second this Bill. view
• 1 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: My agreeing to second this Bill is mainly based on two issues. We are dealing with a very professional area here when it comes to malaria control. I think we need to be very careful that we have the full input of the professionals who are involved in this area before we put something before them that they might not understand and willing to work with us. The history of malaria control the world over is very interesting. There are countries where we have succeeded in eradicating malaria and others where we have not succeeded. Funny enough, the countries that ... view
• 1 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, you will be surprised to find that the history of malaria control is also coloured or muddied with the aura of racism in the sense that it has been believed for a long time that many of us actually do not deserve a better life, mainly because of our skin colour. You will find that when it comes to malaria control in Africa, the hands of most African Governments seem to be tied by international organizations and international drug manufacturers, because malaria is a big disease. One tablet for curing malaria goes for Kshs300 in ... view
