• 24 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 16(1), (2), (3), (5), (6) and (7) be amended by inserting the words “or a public officer” after the words “a State officer” wherever it appears . This is just a simple thing to net everybody who may be involved in duties of the State, so that they do not misuse their offices, and the law does not target the Members of Parliament and leave out the rest. view

• 24 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, regarding the duties of the council, one of them is administration of the Service. That is fundamental. It arises from our experience and our fears. So, I plead with my colleagues, because I know we are in this together. The fears are that this force, which we did not fundamentally change- -- We have all agreed that because we are facing elections, we keep the personnel but some of them are political.

• 24 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I am surprised that Prof. Anyang’-Nyong’o who brought the Freedom of Information Bill to this House is now fighting to conceal information.

We investigated these circumstances, and I want the Minister to take it a bit more seriously; we found that this bank committed only one crime for which it was fined Kshs1 million. The Departmental Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade received letters from the United States of America (USA), calling us corrupt for doing our work. I want the Minister to understand that there are ... view
