• 21 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, if you look at the figures we are talking about at the KNH, they are very high. I remember in my constituency we had a figure of Kshs2 million.

• 8 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, before the Minister replies, I would like to inform you that the written answer that I have received is not compliant with the part of the Question that was deferred. What I have received is the original answer to the Question, which partly addressed the issues raised.

• 8 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am in possession of the answer I had received earlier. To show you exactly what the difference is, we were told, in the last sentence, that they had planned for the Rt. Hon. Prime Minister to visit the hospital and re-name it on 2nd August. Today is 8th August. So, this is not supposed to be the answer for today. This is the answer that was given by Prof. Anyang’-Nyong’o.
