• 1 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will table all those documents for hon. Members to see. view
• 1 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: I would like to ask the Ministry of Local Government to be transparent, and not to follow the issues of resource allocation blindly. We all need a share of the national cake. When this Ministry is doing well, we should have no reason to talk bad things about it. In essence, the Minister should re-look at his development budget and do us justice, as people coming from various districts in this country. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the LATF annual report, which the Minister alluded to, is something which comes many months after the funds have been spent. view
• 1 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, with those few remarks, I beg to support. view
• 26 Jul 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has said that incidents of stock theft have reduced. He has been told by the hon. Member that the reduction was due to the presence of the Anti-Stock Theft Unit. The Questioner has also said that they were withdrawn without the 2378 concurrence of the security team in the district. How does the Assistant Minister expect the people to go back and consult and yet there was no consultation in the reverse way? Mr. Speaker, Sir, could the Assistant Minister restore the Anti-Stock Theft Unit in this particular location without going round the Question? view
• 26 Jul 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to ask the Minister of State for Administration and National Security the following Question by Private Notice.

• 26 Jul 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have brought this Question here because the Government has taken hostage all the Members of Parliament from that area and turned them into voting machines. So, the people of that area approached me and requested me to ask the Question on their behalf. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is a problem--- view
• 26 Jul 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I said that the Government has made the Members of Parliament from that area voting machines. So, I feel obligated to ask the Question on their behalf. view
• 26 Jul 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I withdraw and apologise. I did not intend to insult the hon. Members but only to make them aware of the intention of the Government. view
• 26 Jul 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the issue of cattle rustling keeps coming to this House every week. Just a few months ago, the Government thought it wise to disarm the communities living in that area. The Assistant Minister has told us that there was no such action taken by our security forces, and that the animals that were confiscated belonged to Ugandans. He also admitted that there was a joint task force comprising Kenyan security personnel and Ugandan security forces. Is that a legal procedure? Why would the Government, which is supposed to protect people be involved in cattle rustling? Could ... view
• 26 Jul 2006 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Assistant Minister has said that those people who have been aggrieved by cattle rustling, in this particular case, should report the matter and investigations will be done. I do not come from those areas. However, for the aggrieved people to approach me, it is because they have already approached the Government and also hired a lawyer to talk to the Government over the issue. You are talking about 495 animals. This is not a small matter. Could the Assistant Minister assure this House that he will do further investigations and that those people ... view
