• 22 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I appreciate your ruling. But if my honourable friend had listened to me, I talked about a former Cabinet Minister who does not sit in this House any more. It would not be fair for a person who cannot defend himself in this Parliament to be subjected to Parliamentary privilege. But if you want me to name this former Cabinet Minister, I will gladly do so. I will also produce documentation in this House that has been published and done by the Government itself. But out of fairness to the former Minister whom I removed from ... view

• 22 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Much obliged. I am sure that my good friend does know--- Very soon he will be rising to speak. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, as I wind up because my time has gone, I would like the Minister to go back and relook at the entire allocation. I have been given an assurance by him and his officers that they will do so for entire allocation for provinces and district and streamline it in order to get some equity. Where there is obvious discrepancy such as I have pointed out, it should be corrected. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, with those few ... view
• 22 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. Is the hon. Member not misleading the House when he refers to the President and then says that Mr. Orengo is now occupying the seat? I happened to be in that meeting with Mr. Orengo, but he has not yet become the President! Is the hon. Member not out of order? view
• 16 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It cannot be true that the Assistant Minister has just seen this Order Paper and if it was so, it would be a serious dereliction of duty on the part of your own staff. Could you let the Assistant Minister know when the Question went to the Ministry and the rules that require Questions to be answered within a given time? Is he in order to state that he has just seen the Order Paper which was published yesterday and put in the pigeon holes of all hon. Members? view
• 16 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the number of suspects being released because of insufficient investigations has reached an alarming proportion in this country. That is, perhaps, the reason why the judge in that case recommended that the file should go back for the conduct of a public inquest. What is the Attorney-General doing to strengthen the investigative arm of the police or his department, so that we do not have criminals being set free on daily basis due to incompetence or lack of proper investigations? view
• 16 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. As the Assistant Minister was giving the answer, I do not know whether you heard him since you were consulting. He said that the white CEOs cannot do as well as African CEOs. Is he suggesting that white Kenyans cannot perform duties at the KPLC? Is he a racist? view
• 15 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, over the last few days, there has been a spate of strikes in various secondary schools throughout the country leading to great loss of property and also personal injuries to the students. I would like to request the Minister for Education to give a Ministerial Statement on what steps have been taken to contain the situation and what are the costs. view
• 15 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I can see the Vice-President, who is the Leader of Government Business, is looking at me. He assured me that he would be giving a Ministerial Statement with regard to the absence of the President and the Vice-President at the same time from the country. When can we expect that Ministerial Statement? view
• 15 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am directed to report that the Committee of Supply has considered the Resolution that a sum not exceeding Kshs3,509,634,500 be issued from the Consolidated Fund to complete the sum necessary to meet expenditure during the year ending 30th June, 2009 in respect of Vote 42 - Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, and has approved the same without amendment. view
