• 30 Jul 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, information and communication is one of the oldest arts and science that none of us can live without. From the outset, I want to remind hon.

• 30 Jul 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, what we are talking about here today is about technology. It is about trying to modernize the way we reach out to the people of this nation. That is what informs technology. The world over, ICT has been identified as the main enabler to growing economies. Kenya, as a country, has identified ICT in Vision 2030 as the main tool to moving this economy forward. I wish to remind hon. Members in this House about how fast technology is moving. Some years back, two or three years ago, when Closed-circuit Television (CCTV) was introduced in ... view
• 30 Jul 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. First, I want to appreciate the concerns by Members of Parliament which will go a long way in informing the areas that we feel are necessary so that they can be addressed.

We have paid around Kshs200 million for the consultancy services. view
• 29 Jul 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I have been keenly assessing the mood of the House and I am convinced that much of what is supposed to be discussed has been covered. May I, therefore, request the Chair to call the Mover to reply. view

• 29 Apr 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I stand here to support the Motion. I want, in the interest of time, to point out a few issues. The purpose of leadership is basically to deliver on services. However, that is not possible if we cannot increase production. Production is not possible if we cannot deal squarely with the problem of infrastructure. I stand here to echo some of the sentiments made by my fellow hon. Members and an issue that was raised from the beginning of the opening of this House, which is inequitable distribution of resources. We are all aware in ... view
• 5 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Could I be in order to say that it was a political gimmick to appoint this Committee? It is now redundant because it has served its General Election purpose. view
• 16 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance to contribute to the Motion seeking to have Cherengany Forest protected. Let me start by congratulating the Member of Parliament for that area for introducing the Motion to the House.
