• 2 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am only saying "change". There is nothing happening to me. I am saying that this game of--- view
• 2 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, "revolution" can mean change. I am emotional because my constituents are suffering while some people are busy stealing money which belongs to them. That is taxpayers' money which ought to go to my constituents, and other constituents, who are poor; particularly orphans. If you cannot be emotional about such a situation, then you are no longer human. view
• 2 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, may I quote one great statesman who said: "Evil takes root when good men keep quiet." I am not one of those people who will keep quiet in the face of evil; in the face of thievery and slavery; in the face of our courts releasing people who have--- view
• 2 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have taken your advice. I am very relaxed. I am saying that corruption is bringing down this country to its knees when, in fact, the people who need this money, like orphans, whose education and health should be paid for, are suffering when other people are busy amassing wealth for themselves at the expense of everybody else. That is, really, an emotional issue. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, one only needs to go to Kibera or Kangemi or Kariobangi and see how the people live there to appreciate what I am saying.

• 26 Jul 2006 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. With due respect, is the Minister in order to insinuate that Members of Parliament should not bring laws to the Floor of this House in their own right as Members of Parliament? view
• 26 Jul 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I support this Motion wholeheartedly and would like to appeal to the Minister to support it and address the issues that he has raised when the Bill comes before the House, because there is room for that. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, Kenya is a signatory of the UN Guidelines on Consumer Protection which were passed under Resolution No.39/248 of 1985. Since then, Kenya has not observed even the most minimal standards in terms of consumer protection. This matter was considered so important by the wananchi of Kenya that it was incorporated in the Bomas ... view
• 13 Jul 2006 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Could the Assistant Minister explain since when the NCC houses became a private property belonging to M/s Hussein and Company that was contracted to build those houses? As far as we are concerned, the Hamza houses belong to the NCC. They are not private property. How did a private contractor own the NCC property? view
• 12 Jul 2006 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I think the Mover of this Motion needs to be congratulated for bringing such a futuristic Motion to the Floor of this House. I think the Ninth Parliament must be congratulated for tackling issues that are of national importance, and which concern the future of humanity. I would really love to support this Motion except that I would have liked to substitute the word "ban" with "regulate" but unfortunately, I have come too late to propose an amendment because we are unfortunately going to lose a Motion which is of major significance to ... view
