• 2 May 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I asked specifically if the Minister was aware about the completion or otherwise of Tiengele Rota Footbridge. Is he in order to finish without answering that question? view
• 2 May 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I do accept that the House will appreciate that hon. Muthama is an authority in mining in this country. There is no doubt about that, but is it in order for him to bring an issue where he is involved without declaring his interest? view
• 2 May 2012 in National Assembly: On an point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The question by Hon. Sheikh Dor about Kisumu and Mombasa being of equal status with Nairobi is a matter that is public knowledge. It is contained in the City and Urban Areas Act making these two towns cities. That being the case, is the Assistant Minister in order to allege that he is not aware if the house allowances for Kisumu and Mombasa are now in the same grade as Nairobi? view
• 25 Apr 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as one way of encouraging cultures across the country, last year, the Ministry of State for Culture and National Heritage promised to send technical persons to the Okoyo Ogonda Shrine, just outside the Kisumu International Airport, to look at it so that the lives and the culture of the Kisumu people could be looked at as a way of encouraging cultural centres outside Nairobi. How far has the Ministry gone with this process of sending personnel to Okoyo Ogonda Shrine? view
• 25 Apr 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. You have heard the Minister say repeatedly that they had information about the gang that was going to disrupt this meeting. You have also heard him say that they advised the organisers of the lawful meeting not to go ahead with the meeting. Is it in order for him to turn the law upside- down and, instead of them stopping what is illegal, stopping what is legal? view
• 25 Apr 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The more I listen to hon. Sonko, the more I get disturbed about the type of language we are using in the House. You heard hon. Sonko refer to a “dipstick” that he has. What is that? view
• 19 Apr 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I was listening very carefully to the answer by the hon. Assistant Minister. He started by saying that he is not aware of incidents of cattle rustling, but he has mentioned eight incidents of cattle theft. When does stock theft become cattle rustling? Is he in order to say that? view
• 18 Apr 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is a pity that grant by a donor had to be returned because of inefficiency by either the council or the Ministry. It is because of this type of thing that the Ministry set up a new system of implementing contracts by creating the Constituency Roads Committees (CRCs). Is the Assistant Minister aware that in some constituencies, technical officers and engineers who are supposed to be guiding these committees work as if these committees do not exist and, therefore, frustrate contracts? view
• 18 Apr 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is not just on the Eldoret-Kapsabet Road at Mutwot that the problem of black spots exists. It is all over the country. There is the Mamboleo Junction in Kisumu which has a serious problem. The paradox that we have in this and which I want the Assistant Minister to address is that when you put up good roads, you want to expedite transport, communication and commercial activities by making vehicles move faster and safely on those roads. Why does it become necessary to put bumps to slow down traffic again? What is the real underlying problem ... view
• 17 Apr 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am amazed that at this time and age, the Office of Deputy Prime Minister and Ministry of Local Government is encouraging councils to use land fields as a solid waste management system when that system is known all over the world to be obsolete and out of place. You do not need 50 acres for a land field. You need a one acre piece of land to recycle the waste and make it an industry, so that you can do this in the modern way. In those circumstances, what is the Ministry doing to ensure that ... view
