• 6 May 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. We are talking about a Government that has failed to solve our problems and it has gone ahead to murder people in the process of attempting to do something; and it is stealing livestock from people. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you have allowed the Assistant Minister, my good friend, to come and mislead the House. He keeps telling us that he is sympathetic with Parliament. We do not need his sympathy. We want the Government to take action. If this Government has failed to identify the people, then it has no ... view
• 6 May 2009 in National Assembly: I am rising on a point of order because I have been asked to substantiate this issue. The Assistant Minister told this House this morning, that they have recovered 1,594 animals and they do not know the owners. That can only mean one thing; that they stole them from somebody! view

• 6 May 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the hon. Member for Juja, my good friend Mr. Thuo, to purport to speak for the Government when, even during the latest reshuffle, I did not hear of his elevation? view
• 6 May 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Mine is with regard to your ruling on the matter that has been referred to the Departmental Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade. I would like to persuade you on this because you are aware of the Budget Committee of this House. As far as scrutiny of the Supplementary Estimates and, indeed, the entire budgetary allocations are concerned--- We will also look into this matter as this is within our Standing Orders. view
• 6 May 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to thank the Assistant Minister for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this important Motion. We have come here today to send a strong message, as a House, that our sympathies and condolences go to the people of Mathira. The gangs that are visiting violence on our people and killing them must not be entertained.

It is the very ... view
