• 23 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, the essence of exercise in the military sense is to test the accuracy and range of weapons. That is why they go outside the gazetted area. So, either way, the Government or whoever has to fence the gazetted area or compensate the people within and outside, because these are pastoralists. That is why I want this amendment to include the following:- “All unexploded ordinance in the gazetted area must be cleared at the end of the exercise by the--- view

• 23 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, we are talking about tenders and then shares. Why do we not separate the issue of tenders and have another clause to deal with shares? Otherwise, I will recommend that we go by what Maj-Gen. Nkaisserry said, if we cannot separate. view

• 22 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Sir, for giving me a minute to conclude. On the issue of taping of phones, I think it is serious. I have just talked about trafficking. Some human beings are dealing with drugs. They should be taped and followed electronically. But if it is the ordinary citizens of Kenya, they should not. If you want to tap a citizen of Kenya, you must go to court and get a warrant. But they should not go for warrants for people who have come here to commit crimes because we know them. They are not citizens of Kenya. ... view
• 21 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for the opportunity to talk on this very important subject. I stand to support the report of this Committee, because we have an urgent need to get this Commission working, so that they can address the issues relating to historical injustices and other vices which have caused a lot of suffering to Kenyans. When you look at the corruption that has been going on at the lands offices all over the country, there are many people who are suffering because they lost land due to those acts. Now this Commission should actually stand up ... view
• 8 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The programme is very discriminative because there are many people who deserve this allocation and are suffering but are not benefiting. Could the Assistant Minister consider getting data from all the constituencies in the country of people who qualify so that he eliminates them based on the poverty index? Maybe this Parliament can consider getting enough money to help the Kenyans who are suffering at the moment. view
• 7 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. This Motion is not practical. We are supposed to give the Commission three months from the 4th of May which has already expired and so I do not understand how we will give them three months yet the time they require has already passed. view
• 7 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I would have opposed this Motion but because of the suffering of Kenyans particularly those who lost their lives, parents and even children who are in the streets because of political torture and past injustices, it would be prudent for this House to allow the Commission an extension so that Kenyans who have suffered so much can be able to get reparation and compensation for the suffering they have gone through. It is my contention that we need to support this extension. There are many areas in Kenya where there are a lot of problems even ... view
