meeting but all his plans have been brought down. I am sorry for what happened. We must take action. Madam Temporary Speaker, when this Statement goes to the appropriate committee, let us ensure justice is done. There are times when you go to the airport and you are treated in a very humiliating way even though you are a leader. It leaves me wondering, if leaders are treated in such humiliating ways, what about those that we represent? There is need for communication skills to be taught to public servants who serve leaders and everyone else in this country. I ...

About 40 per cent of our revenue comes from this sector, but much as it is a big economic earner, we need to ask ourselves what is there for Kenyans. I remember Sen. Moi came up with the Local Content Bill and even when we are doing our trade in terms of importing and ...
