• 5 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is leading to a question. Right now, the railway line is prohibiting the transport of goods from Mombasa. My question to the hon. Minister who was my mathematics teacher is: Has he used the correct mathematical algorithm to see that goods at the Port of Mombasa are accumulating exponentially and they are not being transported because the railway system is down?

• 10 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is shocking to hear about the 21 per cent increase of the energy tariffs. Even after the Departmental Committee on Energy, Communications and Public Works discussed with the Ministry on ways and means in which it can raise money for doing its projects, it still came up with a 21 per cent increase.

• 2 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. I would like to support the Motion. The provisions of this Motion already exist in the Kenya Communications Act, CAP.23(1). The Act provides that all telecommunications service providers must provide services directly to all users of telephone handsets. The provisions of the Act should have been implemented by the Ministry through the Communications Commission of Kenya (CCK).
