• 17 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. You have heard the Assistant Minister indicate that he is not aware that the employees of the PBK have not been paid salary arrears amounting to Kshs24 million, yet the truth of the matter is that the salaries for April, May and June were paid last week, just to counter this Question? Is he in order to mislead this House by saying that he is not aware of this? view
• 17 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. This is a grave matter and, as requested by Dr. Khalwale, would I be in order to request that this Question be deferred so that the Minister could table all those documents? view
• 10 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Public Works:- (a) why the construction of the New Mitihani House, which started 25 years ago, has not been completed; and, (b) when the project will be completed. view
• 10 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Minister for being candid and open by telling this House and the entire nation the real status of Mitihani House, which is a very important facility for the Republic of Kenya. According to the Minister, the initial cost of the project, 25 years ago was less than Kshs300 million. The projected cost, as per today, is Kshs1.7 billion; meaning that the Government of the Republic of Kenya will pay Kshs.1.4 billion over and above what it should have paid earlier on. He wants to finalize the project by 2012. Could the Minister ... view
• 10 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, listening to the Minister, he has elaborated on so many programmes that if well managed they can really help the youth of the Republic of Kenya, who actually constitute 60 per cent of the Kenyans. We are not sure how he handles some of his programmes like the exchange progammes for the youth. While thanking the partners, I note that the total expenditure by them is US$66 million, which is approximately Kshs7 billion. Could the Minister inform the House of the percentage of the Kenyan participation in this, and what he is doing to ensure ... view
• 9 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, football in this country has faced serious challenges. We have so many talented youth in this country and with proper management and a credible body running it, I believe we can be somewhere in the map of Africa. Could the Minister confirm whether these elections are going to be credible elections given that we only have three days to the election date? view
• 4 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have listened to the Assistant Minister. He is talking about people ploughing on Madaraka Day to plant more sugar-cane. Again on 4th, he has talked about the same people trying to plough around the headquarters to increase the acreage of sugar-cane in this country. Could he confirm that there is serious frustration from that public officer? What is the real relationship between him and the public, now that we expect him to bring people together? view
• 4 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was very clear. After listening to him, what happened on 4th June is that the DC wanted to stop somebody from ploughing the farm to expand the production of sugar-cane by arguing that it is within the district headquarters. I do not want to believe that. So, my question is: Has he done adequate investigations to know the real relationship between the DC and the community? view
• 4 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Roads:- (a) how much money was spent on the maintenance of the Chepterit-Baraton-Kaibon-Kipkarren-Turbo Road (C37) in the 2010/2011 Financial Year; and, (b) whether he could consider upgrading the road to bitumen standards. view
• 4 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I really want to thank the Assistant Minister for this answer. This is a very important road which covers up to Baraton University where we even have international students. We also have farmers producing a lot of milk, maize and horticulture. He has confirmed that they have provided Kshs90 million to commence procurement to upgrade the road to bitumen standards. When is the tender going to be done so that this work can start? view
