• 14 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: To address the issue of marginalization of the coastal people and other parts of this country, the Prime Minister mentioned that there is need for effective affirmative action. One of the precise affirmative action that the Prime Minister mentioned is the creation of the ministry in charge of development of northern Kenya and other arid lands. This is one ministry that is poorly funded. The Prime Minister is aware of the sorry state of that ministry. view
• 14 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, could the Prime Minister ensure that the ministry is well funded so that it can address the fundamental problems that it was created to address? If that affirmative action that he mentioned is to be of any meaning, could he assure this House and the marginalized Kenyans that that Ministry would be fully funded? view
• 8 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Regional Development Authorities:- (a) what projects have been undertaken by the Ewaso Nyiro North Development Authority in North Horr Constituency during the 2008/2009 and 2009/2010 Financial Years; (b) whether he could provide the cost for each project undertaken as well as all the contract documents for all these projects; and, (c) what immediate measures the Ministry is taking to ensure projects are implemented by the Authority as planned. view
• 8 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Yes, Mr. Speaker, Sir, you do have my concurrence. view
• 7 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to plead with you because I have amended this Question. Actually, it has part “c” and what is appearing on the Order Paper is not actually what was sent to the Ministry by the Clerk’s Office. So, as it is, it will not do me any good. view
• 7 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, so many teachers are teaching in primary schools even though they have gone to university and acquired degrees; they have been discriminated against in that up to now, instead of teaching in colleges or secondary schools, they have been forced to continue teaching in primary schools, after struggling for that long and paying so much money for their studies for years; could the Assistant Minister assure them that they will now be allowed to teach in secondary schools or even in colleges as they wish as they have acquired the necessary credentials? view
• 7 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, some of us hail from these constituencies where network coverage in terms of mobile phones is highly limited. view
• 7 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Kalacha Village in my own constituency is not covered by any form of telephone; whether land line or mobile. We have had series of meetings with this Ministry and the Ministry of State for the Development of Northern Kenya and other arid lands. We have been promised more than three times that this Universal SAT Project would be implemented very soon. view
• 7 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have promised our constituents that this will be implemented. I have given them promises for the last five months. I told them that we have been assured by the Minister, the Permanent Secretary and the CEOs of the mobile telephone companies; such as Safaricom, Airtel Kenya, and others, that this will be implemented. When will the project be implemented? view
• 7 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. My questions are very direct and very clear. We had a series of meetings with this Ministry. As Members of Northern Kenya, we have even written to them telling them which areas need to be covered. It is now almost six months since we wrote to them. You have given us promises; please, tell us when? If you cannot give a promise, tell us so that we tell our constituents to forget about it, please! view
