  • 12 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Prime Minister for his Statement. In his Statement, he said that the Ministry of Agriculture is going to distribute seeds and fertilizer to drought-stricken areas. What is the point of distributing seeds and fertilizer to drought-stricken areas, instead of distributing the same to areas that are not drought-stricken like Kinangop, so that we can produce and feed the drought-stricken areas? Also, I would have expected to hear from the Prime Minister in respect of trees like blue gum, which have caused drought; there should be a Government decision to uproot them immediately. view
  • 12 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Prime Minister answered my second question about blue gums. However, he has not answered my other question about giving fertilizers and seeds to drought stricken areas instead of to areas that can grow food and feed these other areas. view
  • 12 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to ask the Minister whether he is aware that it is the primary duty of the Government to protect its citizens and their property. In that case, the Government is the insurer of its people. When this happened, and citizens lost property and became IDPs, it was the responsibility of the Government to compensate the people. Does the Ministry consider Kshs10,000, or Kshs25,000, enough compensation? The Assistant Minister has said that they are in the process of quantifying what was lost. Could he tell us at what stage of quantifying the Government or Ministry ... view
  • 12 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. Is the Assistant Minister in order to mislead the House that the Government is carrying out a first phase? Could he confirm to the House that there will be a second phase of compensation for the businesses lost? view
  • 12 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this chance to support the Vote of the Ministry of Industrialization. This is a very key Ministry and it is really disappointing to note that they were allocated a meager budget of Kshs2.48 billion. However, I think this Ministry has started on the right footing. In the 18 months that they have been there, when the Minister was moving, he told us that they have already established a national industries relations policy. Without a policy you cannot guide things and now that they have a policy that will guide the industrialization ... view
  • 12 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I was happy to hear that this Ministry, in its master plan, is considering informal sector as a key component and particularly the value addition. This Ministry should not think that industries can only be manufacturing. Industries can also be agro. In the scheme that we have for African Growth Opportunity Act (AGOA), this Ministry can play a very effective and critical role if they link up the value addition with the AGOA scheme. That will help this country achieve some milestones. view
  • 12 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Having said that, I want to talk about two flagships of this Ministry; one is the Kenya Industrial Research Development Institute (KIRDI). We should be doing a lot of research. May be, it has done research for the period it has been in existence and put it into the shelves. It has not come to the open how KIRDI can justify its existence for all the period and how it has helped this country to move forward. We would want to see much more from this flagship. The other main flagship for this Ministry is the Numerical Machines Complex (NMC). ... view
  • 11 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we are grateful to the Assistant Minister for this answer that those titles which were allocated illegally will be cancelled. The Assistant Minister is aware that in my own place, there are 331 dams which was drained and some people subdivided this land and acquired the titles illegally. I would like to know when those title deeds will be cancelled and the dam reinstated to its former use. view
  • 11 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Assistant Minister did not answer the question. The question is: When? Because every time they come here, they say those titles will be cancelled. When will the first title deed be cancelled so that we have faith? view
  • 4 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance, because I came to bury Ceasar and not to praise him. I came to pass the Vote of this Ministry and say a few words that are not very complimentary. view
