• 24 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. I come from a constituency where the level of insecurity is highest, and it is only fair that I say something. view
• 12 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Minister of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security on the matter pertaining to the former Member for Starehe Constituency, his family and properties in Kenya. view
• 12 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: In the Ministerial Statement, I want the Minister to clarify the following: Whether he is aware that the former Assistant Minister, Mr. Gerishon Kirima was forcefully taken to Nairobi Hospital by Administration Policemen (AP) without the consent of his wife, Teresia Wairimu who has been his wife for the last 42 years; whether he is further aware that the APs are guarding Mr. Kirima in Nairobi Hospital and they have denied permission to Mrs. Teresia Wairimu and her children to see Mr. Kirima; under what laws are they undertaking these duties? Whose orders are they following? Is it true that ... view
• 7 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have the same problem in Kayole Police Station, where a police station and police housing units have been completed but they have not been opened. Also in Dandora, we have another complete housing unit which has not been opened for the last one year. We have been wondering why the Ministry cannot open the houses for the police officers to start occupying them, yet there is a big problem of lack of enough housing units. view
• 7 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the Assistant Minister to say that they are waiting for the Ministry to buy furniture, yet when the housing units are complete, police officers come with their own furniture? Does the Government buy them furniture? view
• 1 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, considering the negative impact caused by the NTA report on some Members, I expected the Minister to publish the audited report from the Ministry, which could have clearly shown that what the NTA had reported was wrong. In future, the Minister should make those statements available, so that such organizations do not attempt to audit and publish false information. view
• 23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I wish to thank the Mover of the Bill and also wish to support the Bill. This Bill will go a long way in improving the lives of our poor Kenyans, because most of them cannot afford the essential goods. This will ensure that most of the goods are affordable by everybody in the country. view
• 23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: I wish the Bill could have also included essential services. There are some services in this country which are essential. An example is a Certificate of Good Conduct for our unemployed lot. That service should be made very cheap. Right now, in order for somebody to attain a Certificate of Good Conduct, one is required to pay Kshs1,000, yet most of the applicants are unemployed. Such a service should cost around Kshs100. If we had amended this Bill to include essential services also, that would have also gone a long way in improving the lives of our people. view
• 23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, some of our hospitals are also very expensive to some of our people. Some of our people from the slums find it expensive to seek medical attention at Kenyatta National Hospital. The cost of such a service should be controlled, so that everybody can afford medical services. view
• 23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: There is also the mortuary fee, which is very high to some of these people. They go around holding harambees so that they can raise money to collect their dead from the mortuaries. Such a service should be made to be very cheap in this country because even the poor die. The ones who are left behind to bury their dead are also very poor. This service should be made affordable to everybody. Therefore, I wish the Mover could have included essential services in the Bill, so that life can be easy and affordable for everybody in this country. view
