• 11 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Gender, Sports, Culture and Social Services when the Kapkatet Stadium in Bureti District will be upgraded as promised by the Government in 2004. view
• 11 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank the Minister for that good answer and I also want to thank my Member of Parliament for giving us money from the CDF kitty. This stadium is very important because it has produced world renowned athletes like Wilson Kiprugut and Tegla Chemaguai. So, any effort to try and make it attain international standards will be appreciated. However, Kshs2 million is too little although we are grateful. I believe the Minister will be disbursing more. But to whom is this money being disbursed? view
• 11 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I will only wait for action. I have no further questions. view
• 5 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I understood the Assistant Minister to be saying that ticks are more scientific than the scientists and that is why they know which chemicals to reject. When this Ministry was established a while ago, the Minister said they would rehabilitate all the cattle dips in the country. Going around the countryside, you will note that these cattle dips have not been rehabilitated particularly in Bureti District. What is the Ministry doing to rehabilitate the cattle dips? view
• 4 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Local Government:- (a) what cost Kericho Bus Stage is being built; (b) whether he is aware that Kericho Bus Stage has stalled; and (c) whether the Ministry is planning to build a bus stage at Litein in Bureti, and if so, when. view
• 4 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wish to thank the Assistant Minister for giving a very evasive answer. view
• 4 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to believe that the Assistant Minister is reading from a different dictionary the meaning of the words "stalled" and "slowed". That bus park was demolished two years ago and it has been like that since then. The Assistant Minister is saying that, that was necessitated by the need to re-design a retention wall. How long does it take to re-design a wall? It has taken two years now. They must be operating from Mars! That is why they are taking too long. view
• 4 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Litein is the district headquarters of Bureti District, and it has no bus park. The Assistant Minister is saying: "It may be considered in future development by the Ministry of Local Government". Is the Assistant Minister initially thinking of buying land to construct that bus park, because they do not have land at the moment? At the moment, the bus park is along the highway, and that is extremely dangerous to the motorists and the users of the park. Could the Assistant Minister assure this House that in this financial year's Budget, appropriate land ... view
• 4 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you very much for the time given. I want to begin by thanking Mr. Serut for giving me names of people to talk to in Mt. Elgon while searching for information--- view
• 4 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. No amount of grand-standing will solve this problem. No amount of name-calling will do so and no amount of name-dropping will do it. This problem can only be solved through sobriety, dialogue and consultation between all the parties concerned. We need to ask what happened in Mt. Elgon from 1935. We need to ask what happened in 1955 and 1971. Were the people allocated land fairly? Were the Mosop people allocated land fairly? How did the Soy people come to be together with the Mosop at Chebyuk? We need to ask those questions with ... view
