• 21 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am really surprised to learn that the formalisation of the process is not yet ready and yet, I remember that, in the year 2000, when KANU was co-operating with NDP, the then President of this country came to Kisumu and announced that, from that time, Kisumu would be a city alongside Mombasa.

So, I wonder whether this base which was set 2396 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES August 6, 2008 up in Homa Bay is really going to help curb this problem. Could the Assistant Minister promise that he is going to set up another base ... view
