• 1 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the new Assistant Minister. I am sure this is his first Question to answer. The Ministry is not taking this issue seriously because the Assistant Minister has casually said that some food was alleged to be unfit for human consumption. The truth of the matter is that in the month of July, 10,000 bags of maize meant for the whole of Kitui County, namely, Mwingi North, Mwingi South, Kitui Central and Kitui South received rotten maize which is in the stores of the NCPB, Kitui depot. This food was tested by the Public ... view
• 1 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I think the Assistant Minister is taking this matter lightly! What we said is that the food in the stores is the food which was condemned by the public health officials but it is still in the stores! If he is doubting that, could he send somebody from his office so that we go tomorrow and collect samples directly from the stores to prove that this food is rotten and not fit for human consumption? Is the Assistant Minister in order to take this matter lightly? view
• 1 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has said that there is no food that is lost on the way but I would like to tell him that we have not received food for August except on papers. The food has not reached my constituency! I raised this issue in 2009 and the Minister sent a team to investigate and found that a lorry-full of food reached our area but the food was taken away and resold! The only action that the Ministry took was to transfer that District Officer (DO) to another place! So, what will the Assistant Minister do ... view

• 30 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have no problem with that. This matter is urgent in the sense that the 10,000 bags of maize for the whole of Kitui County were rotten and have been destroyed and, therefore, the people have not received their food. view
• 2 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is the Assistant Minister in order to mislead this House that he will be able to say whether the bridge has been allocated money or not after the estimates have been passed when we know that estimates have been tabled? According to the estimates, it is only Kathua Bridge which has been allocated Kshs70 million in the whole of Kitui County. Is he in order to mislead this House that he will be able to allocate money once the Vote is passed and yet he has already indicated which projects he will ... view

• 2 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Education:- (a) whether he is aware that Kitui South Constituency (Mutomo and Ikutha districts) is arid and that all the primary and secondary schools are affected by famine; (b) what informed the Ministry’s decision to leave out areas such as Ikutha, Mutomo and Ikanga Division in the school feeding programme; and, (c) whether he could include all primary schools in the feeding programme and also supply relief food to the secondary schools. view
• 2 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, since I raised this Question, the situation has become worse in my constituency. We have stayed for three consecutive years without rain. The only food which can sustain the students is the one they get in school. So, my request to the Assistant Minister is whether he could raise funds from any source, so that he sustains this feeding programme until we get sufficient rains? As I speak, the situation is very bad. view
