• 5 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is a pity that the House is not as full as it should be when a matter of this magnitude is being debated. Time has come for my learned senior friend, the Minister for Education, to show leadership in the Ministry, not by issuing threats and giving directives but by engaging his expertise as a lawyer and arbitrator of many years standing to get the KUPPET and KNUT officials round the table and let them understand that what they are claiming is rightfully theirs. The CBA they entered into, and the Legal Notice, are as ... view
• 4 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, when the IEBC Act was being crafted, it was deliberately meant to stop the officials of the IEBC from misusing information or powers vested in them. However, if the Assistant Minister has looked at the Act carefully particularly the section that relate to the punishment of officials who misuse the powers, what is there in the Act to ensure that the concerns raised by Mr. Mwau will be addressed within the Act? view
• 4 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, before Independence this country was being governed by Her Majesty’s government for the colony and protectorate of Kenya. After Independence we had the Government of the Republic of Kenya. In law the Government of the Republic of Kenya is a successor of Her Majesty’s government. So, to that extent this Government must take responsibility for all the acts that should have been undertaken by that government. So, in that case, can the Assistant Minister tell the House exactly what he is doing to make sure that he keeps the Kenya Armed Forces out of this? That ... view
• 29 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The gaps that were in the Assistant Minister’s answer last time that made it possible to have this Question answered again related to the issue of alternative energy, which is very fundamental in this country. With your permission and the indulgence of hon. Odhiambo, the Questioner, I would suggest he tables this answer, so that we can have a chance to scrutinize it thoroughly and then we will deal with it next time. view
• 29 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is nice to hear the history of athletics in Kenya from the Prime Minister about how they have performed because that is when he will view
• 28 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to ask the Minister of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security the following Question by Private Notice. (a) Under what circumstances were Administration Police constables recruited and enrolled at Administration Police Training College (APTC) without basic academic qualifications certificates and without being given services numbers that resulted in 600 of them being given three days off on 28th May 2012 to present the documents to enable them proceed with training? (b) How many of these officers have so far returned to the college with genuine documents and could the Minister provide a list ... view
• 28 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is alright because you have ruled on it. However, I wish to draw your attention to the fact that one month ago the Minister of State for Defence and Acting Minister of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security came with an answer which was not satisfactory. Two weeks ago, the Assistant Minister also came with an answer which was also not satisfactory. That is why it was deferred to today. All I can do is urge the Chair to ensure that they comply with the last directive. view
• 28 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you have heard the Assistant Minister say more than twice that the delay is partly caused by the vetting process. He knows that an identity card is an entitlement of a Kenyan. In my constituency, the people who live in Kendwa, Kaloleni, Manyata, Usoma and Bandani are predominantly Muslim communities, who have to go through the vetting process. Is it in order for him to insist that the vetting process must be applied when he knows that within the Act, there is no provision for vetting at all? view
• 28 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am concerned. Did you hear the Assistant Minister say that whether what they are doing is in law or not, they are going to continue doing it? Is it in order? view
• 15 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Last week, I sought for a Ministerial Statement from the Minister for Environment and Mineral Resources on the implementation of the removal of water hyacinth from Winam Gulf of Lake Victoria. The Minister was supposed to give the Statement this afternoon. It has not been issued and I do not see him here either. view
