23 Aug 2011 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the fight against corruption is not about this document. It is not about the laws that we will pass. The fight against corruption is the will to do away with corruption. It is the will to combat corruption, wherever it is, either up, down, or sideways. To me, it is the will. The Executive knows very well, even without this Commission, where the corruption is. The National Security Intelligence Service (NSIS), which is part of the Executive, if they collaborated with other agencies of Government, they would tell you where corruption is about to be ...

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, may I thank the Minister for this document. It is a good start. For the first time, we can see, for example, on page 1056(j), the private sector has been brought on board. At least, the public sector has been on board in relation to the fight against corruption. So, if we continue to fight corruption in both the public and private sector, we will move miles in fighting this evil.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, what we cannot afford in the fight against corruption by giving prosecutorial powers to this body. For good governance, we must separate those who investigate from those who prosecute and from those who convict and hang suspects, or set them free if there is no evidence. Since the former anti-corruption bodies have failed, all the directors have failed; the whole anti-corruption body has failed, let us vet everybody and start a fresh. That is the only way to move forward in addressing this menace called corruption.

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me a chance to support this very important Motion. From the outset, let me congratulate Mr. Namwamba for bringing this Motion which, in my view, is a pillar of the Vision 2030. We have the three pillars of Vision 2030, but we need to do more in those pillars in order to realise Vision 2030. It is institutions like the Kenya Farmers Association (KFA) that will be able to revive and progress the agricultural sector so that we do not only have food security in this country, but also achieve Vision ...

4 Aug 2011 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the alleged embezzlement or loss of Kshs4.2 billion arose out of an audit of 512 schools. Only 512 schools were audited. There are 20,000 primary schools. If 5,000 schools were audited, the loss would have amounted to Kshs50 billion. Could he clarify whether they are going to extend the audit to the other schools, so that we can know the extent of the embezzlement or the loss to the Kenyans?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like the Right hon. Prime Minister to clarify whether there are any plans in the future to authorize importation of GMO.

Thank you Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance to add my voice in support of this very important Motion. At the onset, I would like to congratulate hon. Eng. Gumbo for thinking forward, thinking about our children and even thinking further, more than the Ministry of Education, and seeing how our girl- child can be helped to concentrate in leaning in our schools. It always bothers me on how the Government works. That is because 50 years after Independence, and having a Ministry of Education in place, I would have expected the Ministry to carry out ...

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also want to add my voice to the support of this Motion. I know these Kenyans put themselves forward and they were vetted. Reservations were expressed. They were cleared and in the end, we said these were the Kenyans who can do the job.
