• 27 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: I do not believe that we have had a Commission like this one, which has set time-frames within which certain things needed to be done. Had that not been done, this Report would have been shelved like many others. No action would have been taken. The culture of impunity would have continued. view
• 27 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: So, for the first time, we have a real opportunity to deal with the culture of impunity in a way that addresses the problem fully. This is not an opportunity we can afford to lose. We should not allow the default clause of sending the recommendations to the Hague to take place. We, as Kenyans, 40 years after Independence, need to stand tall in this era and say that we can actually face the challenges that face our nation. view
• 27 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, one hopes that this is the last time that we will see a situation in this country where a person can stand and commit acts of murder and crimes against humanity, knowing that no one can ask them, because they have control, or they have fanatical following of certain groups or sections of people. view
• 27 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: This country shall be ruled by the rule of law, or by a Constitution that does not discriminate, or by application of legal processes that do not discriminate or differentiate. Such that whether you are the President of this Republic or the lowest person in the street, if you have committed a criminal offence, you face the full force of the law without telling Kenyans that you are protected by your community or your tribe. view
• 27 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: We must pass this Motion, so that the Report is adopted to pave the way for the enactment of the statute. That is our real challenge: Whether we can enact a statute that will truly facilitate the realisation of the recommendations made in the Report. There are fears out there, that there are people in this country whose mission is to prevent the realisation of the recommendations of the Report by Ja nuary 27, 2009 PARLIAMENTAR Y DEBATES view
• 22 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: Please, let her finish explaining. I will allow your point of order later. view

• 22 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Minister has given a very comprehensive answer--- view
• 22 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, while giving the Ministerial Statement, the Minister has talked about investigations by the Kenya Anti-Corruption Commission (KACC), the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) and others. Could he tell us the status of those investigations, and whether any prosecutions are intended, and if so, how soon can we expect to see people in court? view
