• 30 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I do not know why the Chairman of the Budget Committee is becoming a bit agitated. He did make his contribution although I did not like a lot of what he said. He should allow me to make my contribution. Kenyans made representations to the Budget Committee which did a report to this House. That report was adopted by this House. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Report should be implemented by the Executive through the Minister to the letter. If the Executive had issues, they would have raised them on the Floor. So, I cannot sit ... view
• 30 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Ministry of Medical Services, we gave them more money to buy cancer machines. However, that has been left out. There is no justification for giving Kshs6 billion more to the Department of Defence yet we cannot give money to employ teachers in this country. We are proceeding as a country--- view
• 30 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, allow me to make my presentation because you remember all the other Votes will be guillotined. So, I think if something is wrong, I need to point it out. We, as a country, will be judged harshly because we are starting on a wrong note. We, as a country, either choose to live with the old Constitution which we discarded or we start living with the new Constitution. We cannot have an excuse. Even if the Minister delayed to table the Budget Estimates in the House, the moment they were tabled in the House, we are ... view
• 30 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I oppose. view
• 30 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady. Even as we proceed with Guillotine, the way the Motion is framed is unconstitutional. The Motion is urging us “That a sum not exceeding Kshs30,259,434,339 be issued from the Consolidated Fund to complete the sum necessary---” We cannot give approval to issue funds from the Consolidated Fund through a Motion. I have said this and I repeat that whatever we are doing is wrong. If it is a matter of Committee of Supply, we need to rephrase the Motion. This is because what this Motion is seeking to do is unconstitutional. ... view
• 30 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. If we were a sensitive country and given the fact that we have talked about police reforms, instead of giving the Department of Defence Kshs6 billion more, we would have given the police. It is sad that this is a country that does not care about its security. We are thinking of--- view
• 30 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I was just talking about the police reforms in general because this Commission is coming to help the police reform itself. view
• 30 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: So, that is why I am lamenting because I have been reduced to lamenting. view
• 30 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is a very sad evening for this country. It is, indeed, sad because we have just trashed the powers which the people of Kenya gave this Parliament to scrutinize and oversee the Executive. It is, indeed, sad that what we have passed in this House this afternoon is completely at variance with what the Budget Committee had recommended to this House which was approved by the House and became part of the records of this House. If you look at the Constitution, you will find that it is very clear. It gives this Parliament ... view
• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I also stand to oppose this amendment, with all due respect to my friend and colleague, Mr. Mungatana, I think it is high time people made decisions and stood by those decisions in this country. If you want to go for presidency, go for presidency! If you want to be in Parliament, do it, instead of going for presidency while you also want to contest other seats. I think this amendment should not be carried and so I oppose! view
