• 9 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the hon. Assistant Minister who is my good former teacher to mislead this House that the brain of a child in rural Kenya is not a computer, but that of a child in urban Kenya is a computer? The question is: Why is he employing two different standards in urban Kenya and rural Kenya? view
• 9 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of Order. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Does the Assistant Minister really understand what we are trying to ask in this Question? view
• 9 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also wish to commend the Prime Minister and the EMU for the good job they are doing. The Prime Minister has stated that all the reports by the EMU are implemented by the Government. Could he clarify why the report by the EMU in the year 2003 on the performance of the Kerio Valley Development Authority is yet to be implemented? What is its status and what will the Government do about it? view

• 9 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wish to thank the good Assistant Minister for a good answer. You will appreciate that he had some difficulty in pronouncing the names. If we had a language policy where some languages are taught in urban areas, the Assistant Minister would understand some of the words. However, while genuinely thanking him for the capacity that has been installed of 1,341 kilowatts, the consumption in Lodwar Town is still small, not because we do not want to consume electricity, but because it has not been taken to all the suburbs of Lodwar Municipality. When will the ... view
• 9 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I want to appreciate the Assistant Minister for being pro-active, because since the question was asked he has been talking about a second generator by June 2009. My final question seeks a clarification. One, will he compensate the business losses which came about as a result of the frequent power outages? When will he ensure that the urban centers in Turkana Central, particularly Lorgum, which is the new headquarters of the new district, Loima, Kerio and Kalapol, which have secondary schools, acquire power generating plants? view
• 9 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Rt. Hon. Prime Minister said that he could not respond to my query on the Report of 2003 on (KVDA) that was given by the Inspectorate of State Corporations because he was not in that Government. All of us know, he was not the Prime Minister but he was a very important Minister for Roads. So, he knows. The EMU and Inspectorate of State Corporations was formed by an Act of Parliament and it has been working continuously. So, either he does not have the information now which I can concede ... view
