• 18 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, could I ask the hon. Member to reduce his temper and ask a question? view
• 18 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to assure this House that I will investigate the matter and take appropriate action. view
• 10 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) Ninety-six aliens linked to the Islamic Courts Union were returned to Somalia where they had come from. (b) None. (c) These were aliens who had come from Somalia. view
• 10 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is the responsibility of my Ministry to deport aliens and all those people who are in this country illegally. These people were taken back to Somalia because they had no documentation to show they were Kenyans. view
• 10 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, unless somebody can produce evidence, we know many people hold illegal Kenyan documentations. In fact, most of them have forged documents. If anybody is purporting to be a Kenyan and does not have the documents, we refer to them as aliens. As far as I am concerned, these were aliens from Somalia and we only took them back to their home. view
• 10 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, none of those who were deported held any Kenyan documentation to justify that they were Kenyans. These were aliens from Somalia. view
• 10 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, unless there are hon. Members in this House trying to protect foreigners, so that they continue to destroy this country, I will not agree with them on that point. view
• 10 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, with due respect to the senior general who has been involved in peace keeping all over the world, we know that when the problems of Somalia began, people were intercepted. Out of those intercepted, some were carrying firearms. It was in the interest of Kenyan security that we find out why they were carrying the firearms. We, therefore, sent them back to Somalia. view
• 10 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, one needs to realise and appreciate the Government of Kenya and its people. Kenyans have been living with Somalia problems for a very long time. We have more than 300,000 Somalis in Kenya. What the hon. Members is saying is wrong. view
• 10 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, unless the hon. Member has proof of what she is talking about, those are simply allegations. The Government knows everybody who is working within our region and who has been employed by NGOs. Most of those people were arrested with firearms. Those are the people who are causing problems in this country. They are the ones bringing firearms here. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wonder why this House should defend people who are carrying firearms to come and kill us here. view
