26 Oct 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, if Mr. Otieno is not happy with the Report, he should reject it. He should support an amendment. The amendment essentially seeks to urge us to go ahead and adopt this Report but with certain deletions.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, it looks like Mr. Otieno has had a lot of excitement and he has not understood the rules of the House.

Much obliged, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am seeking my clarifications. To begin with, I must say that for once in a very long time, I am proud of my Ministry of Foreign Affairs and my Government too. For very long, we have never asserted our sovereignty as an independent country that actually earned its own Independence through the spilling of blood.

First, could the hon. Minister, tell us what is our interest there? What is the volume of trade that we have with Sudan, the number of Kenyans who are working in Sudan whom I know are in the hundreds of thousands, and those doing business, including in Southern Sudan and Northern Sudan?
