17 Feb 2009 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also wish to support the Motion for the adoption of the Report by the Departmental Committee on Agriculture, Lands and Natural Resources. This is a very important Report but, perhaps, the issue of pyrethrum is not as exciting as the Grand Regency Hotel, Anglo Leasing, Goldenberg and maize scandals, or any other scandal, otherwise this Chamber would have been full. What we are looking at is the loss of over Kshs3 billion. This is an amount that would make a big difference, not just in the lives of the pyrethrum farmers in this country, ...

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, last year in November, the Minister had undertaken to visit the Eldoret-Kapsabet Road, Eldoret-Iten Road and Eldoret-Kitale Road. The three roads are in a terrible state but he is yet to visit those roads. When is he intending to do so?
