• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am happy that hon. Olago has withdrawn and apologized for the remarks he has made. But hon. Khalwale, in an attempt to ask for withdrawal from hon. Olago, also did the same by imputing improper motive on a number of Members of Parliament, when he said that he understands the passion of defending the Prime Minister. That is clearly casting aspersions on Members of this House who are discharging their duties. It is important that hon. Khalwale also withdraws and apologizes to hon. Members who are discharging their responsibilities. view
• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: They are the same! view
• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Local Government has already issued the Ministerial Statement before us and I think it is important that this House is allowed to interrogate that Ministerial Statement, on behalf of the Prime Minister. I see an attempt to delay the discussion on this topic, so that we view
• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: can give fodder to some individuals to use it as a campaign platform. There is the question of the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) having an Audit Report on this matter. It should be appreciated that the PAC has Audit Reports on all Ministries, and many of them have not been doing a good job. I even raised an issue here. They have not even looked at the revenue of this country amounting to over Kshs100 billion. They have not done anything on that and they are trivialising their duties. view
• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, yesterday I saw the Chairman of the Public Accounts Committee in a Press conference asking for an explanation. He even said that he is already on the matter and he has facts. Even today the same Chairman has told us he knows a lot that if he puts its here, we would be shocked. Therefore, I am disturbed that the same hon. Members want more time. The intention is to delay, politicize and give room for speculation and unnecessary public anxiety over a non-issue. view
• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the clarification that I would like to get from the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Local Government is with regard to the World Bank relationship with the Office of the Prime Minister. I would like to know if the World Bank has engaged the Office of the Prime Minister. If the World Bank has raised any issues, I would like the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Local Government to confirm whether they have tried to address the issues with the World Bank. Are they normal issues raised by any donor agency to any Government department ... view
• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. On 21st April, 2011, I rose in this House and asked for a Statement from the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance. He kept on giving promises that the Statement would be brought. The Statement was on the status of our revenue accounts. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the amounts I questioned were to the tune of over Kshs100 billion which had failed to reconcile with the accounts that had been presented to this House and what the Treasury had reported. I am talking about Kshs104 billion. Up to this stage, this matter ... view
• 18 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Education:- (a) whether he is aware that Suba District was gazetted by the Government as a hardship area in early 2010; and, (b) when the Ministry will start paying hardship allowance to the teachers in the district. view
• 18 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is actually the third time that this issue has come up on the Floor of this House. Actually, the last time the Minister was here, he was supposed to inform the House when the Ministry will start paying teachers in Gwassi Constituency, Suba District and other districts which are classified as hardship areas. The answer that I have received from the Assistant Minister is a bit surprising in the sense that it is vague on what the Ministry is going to do. The Assistant Minister has said that last year in July, the Government was supposed ... view
