1 Aug 2012 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I want to thank you for the opportunity. I want to appreciate that you are one of the people who fight for the rights of the people. We know you as a person who has stood for the rights of people from the time you entered politics. As Dr. Khalwale has mentioned, Nyandarua is the home of the former freedom fighters na watoto wao . It is sad that every other time we turn the page, all that we do is play politics with the people of Nyandarua, the people who ...

21 Jun 2012 in National Assembly:
Mr. Chairman, Sir, I rise to oppose this amendment because in legislating this way, we are actually legislating for indiscipline within parties. It is saying that we want to go back to the anarchical behavior of members within parties. But also fundamentally, there has been civic education in the country to Kenyans on what these provisions of the Constitution and what the Political Parties and Elections Acts means. People have been educated and told that it is important that they belong to a party or belong to none if they do not want to associate themselves to a given manifesto. ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Assistant Minister for the answer, although it is not quite accurate. It is true that the works on the road are going on, but they did not commence in February. They commenced much later, perhaps, towards the end of March. But even as they proceed, could the Assistant Minister ensure that the areas that will be covered towards November, 2013 are also made passable as we await the completion date? This is because the area near Nyahururu Town is completely impassable, unless the contractor is instructed to take some remedial measures ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Assistant Minister for the answer. I also sympathize with the people of Ijara, Tana River and other parts of the country. But I am also disappointed with the hon. Members because they do not see the need for supporting people from Ndaragwa. They should also make a point of travelling across this country and I invite them to come to Ndaragwa. We also have difficulties of transportation, just like in other areas. The fact that we are in Central Province does not mean that we actually have benefited like others. So, ...

20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly:
Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I was just going to propose that the Attorney-General deals with specific Acts as we come across them, instead of a blanket withdrawal. He should now deal with the Pyrethrum Act. If he is withdrawing that and we are in concurrence, as a House, then we move on.

20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly:
Madam Temporary Deputy Chair, I want to support that amendment by the Attorney-General – the deletion of that amendment – because in essence, we are looking for liberalization of the pyrethrum industry and this amendment intended to control it further. So we support the deletion of that amendment.

7 Jun 2012 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is true that the Question was referred to the Departmental Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Cooperatives, but the aspects referred to that Committee related to the sustainability of the PBK. As to whether farmers in Nyandarua County have been paid, I think that is an answer the Assistant Minister ought to have given us straightaway because it is a question of pending payments that relate to 2008/2009.
