• 1 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. You heard hon. Balala claim that there are too many adjustments but he can afford the figure. However, can he afford the cheating by the Kenya Power? view
• 28 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Assistant Minister for the answer. However, in part (c) of the answer, which is critical to me, he has provided Kshs100,000 for six schools to enable the pupils to travel all the way to Narok for those many days. He says that he is facilitating those pupils to travel. Mr. Assistant Minister, do you know where we come from? From Turkana to Narok, you have to go to Kitale, Nakuru and then all the way to Narok. Out of the nine schools that qualified only six schools have the chance to ... view
• 28 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I am on record that the Assistant Minister is my former teacher and I would not want to deal with this issue unnecessarily in an adversarial manner. But is he in order to persistently mislead this House that Turkana Central gets the highest allocation whereas the figures he has given me is that Turkana Central with an enrolment of 24,684 at a capitation of 50, he is still giving us Kshs400,000 only, when we should almost be getting on average Kshs750,000? He is not even giving us what he should be ... view
• 28 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Constitution of Kenya says, in Article 53(2): “53(2) A child’s best interests are of paramount importance in every matter concerning the child.” The Assistant Minister is responsible for our children in school. As the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Education, Research and Technology also stated, participating in these activities is not actually an extra-curricular, but it is the core activity that children engage in. Therefore, we want the Assistant Minister to ensure that children in each school get the opportunity to participate. He must allocate sufficient funds, so that this matter is not just ... view
• 28 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: What is it, Prof. Olweny? I am sure you do not want to interrupt another professor. view
• 28 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: There you are! You have been answered! Prof. Olweny, while I know we were with you elsewhere, you must learn to follow procedures wherever you are. The other Order for the Committee of the whole House was directed by the Chair to be tackled in the afternoon sitting. So, we have a bit of time for hon. Members to debate this. Proceed, Prof. Anyang’-Nyong’o. view
• 28 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Except hon. Professor, you have concentrated on one item and we are not discussing the National Hospital Insurance Fund (NHIF). view
• 28 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Order, Mr. Letimalo! Even the hon. Member for Keiyo South is also giving his views. I will allow you to conclude and then maybe have one more person contributing and then we will conclude the debate. view
• 28 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I also rise to contribute to this Bill. In supporting this Bill, I want Prof. Anyang’-Nyong’o to know that my primary responsibility is to contribute and participate in this House. The other one is secondary. In any case, he declared the Amendment Bill which was to pay me, unconstitutional. So, I have really no incentive for working for him because he does not seem to appreciate my services. Having said that, and being a patriotic Kenyan, I offer my services. First, I want to thank the hon. Minister, Mr. Githae. When we were refusing the Motion ... view
