13 Apr 2011 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. Let me start by congratulating Mr. Wamalwa for bringing this Motion on this very important subject. The establishment of a fertilizer factory in this country will not only benefit the farmers, but it will really cut costs. The amount of money that we use in importing fertilizer is enormous. We will be able to cut costs by half or even more than half if we were to establish a factory here and produce our own fertilizer. Countries like Zimbabwe, Mauritius and others, are able to set up their own factories and the cost of ...

23 Mar 2011 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance, which I have waited for for the last one hour. I want to support the exposition of Government policy by the President yesterday. As I do so, I want to congratulate my friend, hon. Ojaamong, for speaking his mind.

3 Feb 2011 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, in order for the Government to realise the best fertilizer prices, procurement of fertilizers should be done through open tendering. Can the Assistant Minister assure this House that this was done and that the National Cereals and Produce Board is not single-sourcing importers but rather it is tendering for importation of fertilizers?

2 Feb 2011 in National Assembly:
Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, first of all let me congratulate Mr. MâMithiaru for bringing this Motion here; it is which is very important. It is over 10 years since we committed ourselves into making sure that the MDGs are realized. We now have only about four years to go, yet other than education and HIV/AIDS, there is not much to show for it. We do not have to sign any document. We do not even have to be a member of the United Nations (UN) and be forced by charters to develop our people. We understand how the environment has ...

(b) What action has the Government taken against the persons involved?

7 Dec 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to commend the Assistant Minister for this very honest answer and the action he has taken. We cannot continue with a PTA Chairman on the Board who has been party to this theft until 2011 when an AGM is held. Could we hold an extra-ordinary AGM to appoint a new chairman of the PTA so that we can have a clean Board?

7 Dec 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I hope the action taken by the Minister will serve as a warning to all the other principals not only in schools in Kinangop but in the whole country. Could the Minister also investigate his education office in Nyandarua which had merely recommended that the teacher only be transferred?
