• 5 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, while it is at your discretion, I thought we would have a better reason the Members of the Front Bench are not here. It is not just about the Question being answered tomorrow. It is also about why they are not here. view
• 5 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in that case, I will take tomorrow. view
• 5 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am afraid I will not be there next week. view

• 4 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to ask the Minister for Roads the following Question by Private Notice. (a) Is the Minister aware that Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) is threatening to demolish homes and commercial properties to give way for the construction of a second carriage way on Otonglo-Kisian road and the inter-changes at Otonglo and Kisian intersections? (b) Why has KeNHA failed to attend all subsequent meetings after the public consultation on the resettlement action plan meeting held at Kisian Primary School on 20th April, 2012 and indicate why the Authority issued a public notice in the media on ... view
• 4 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would kindly urge you to order that this Question be deferred to sometime later this next week, so that the real issue that is at stake can be addressed properly. I say so because the answer that I have been given relates to ordinary acquisition of land for road purposes, but my Question does not relate to the land acquired that is in excess of the 30 meters on either side. I was referring to the area between Otonglo and Kisian. As for the railway line running parallel to the main road, the distance is about ... view
• 4 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: I appreciate the fact that, maybe, that part was missed because of the urgency of the Question. I would have no objection at all if the Assistant Minister could go back and address the issue of the extra 30 meters and inform the House later this week. view
• 4 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, if we are to go by what the Assistant Minister has said, then he is inviting people to engage in lawlessness in order to stop his people from encroaching on the road. What I am asking is very simple. There is no dispute on the 30 meters that are on the road reserve. The people are asking for compensation for the extra 30 meters and not the 30 meters as per the Act. We have no problem on that. Clearly, he has addressed his mind to that issue. I wish he could appreciate what I am trying ... view
• 4 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to be understood clearly on this Question. It is not that I am trying to stop or frustrate construction of roads. I am trying to say that the people who are affected beyond the road reserves should be compensated adequately. So, under these circumstances, is the Assistant Minister willing to go on the HANSARD as saying that KeNHA will only use 30 meters road reserve and if they are going to go beyond 30 meters, then they should not be allowed? Let that go on the HANSARD. view
• 4 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I expect that the Assistant Minister should know or ought to know that the road reserve for a highway is 30 meters, no less, no more from the centre of the road. So, let him go on record clearly as saying that if they are going to acquire any excess land beyond 30 meters, then they will compensate. If the land acquired is within 30 meters, then there will be no compensation, but if it is excess of 30 meters, then there will be compensation. view
