• 19 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. You have heard the hon. Member challenge other hon. Members to come forward and ask for salary deduction as if he is not an hon. Member of Parliament. Could he go ahead and make that offer and if possible resign from the Ministry so that we can pay a fewer Assistant Ministers? view
• 14 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. From the look of things, the Member for Ragwe is not here. The latest information I have is that he is out of the country on parliamentary duty. He went out of the country with the Departmental Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations. I am not sure whether he is back. view
• 14 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, our Constitution is very clear. If you go to Article 27(4) it says that the state shall not discriminate directly or indirectly against any person on any ground and one of the grounds is age. The Assistant Minister is very much aware that the supremacy of the Constitution of Kenya is not in doubt. Whichever electoral code or FIFA rules, it does not matter because our Constitution is supreme. Therefore, is he telling us that in the meantime, before FIFA decides to co-operate, that he does not uphold the supremacy of the Constitution by telling the electoral ... view
• 14 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to, quickly, support this Motion. I guarantee that I will not take more than three minutes. view
• 14 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, she is right, but I said that it is causing pain to some of my constituents, who drink. Having said that, I want to thank hon. Mututho for bringing such legislation before the House. Looking at this Bill, it is clear that hon. Mututho wants to restructure the Council by reducing the Council membership from 21 to 13. To me, this is commendable because, in this country, we are used to very big councils and committees, which, in essence, are very ineffective. So, coming up with a more effective system, to me, is commendable. It ... view

• 14 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for now about three times, hon. Kiunjuri has referred to a presidential candidate. Are we facing elections so that we could have a presidential candidate? Could he confirm who that presidential candidate is? view
• 14 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to support this Report. First of all, let me thank the Chairman and the Committee for bringing a united Report. In the past few months, we have had cases where Committees bring reports and then on the Floor of the House, we see division. I congratulate this Committee. Secondly, we know we should fight corruption in this country, but it is very important for us to be very careful not to bring in politics, vendetta and extraneous issues. If you look at the Report of this Committee, it is very detailed. The Assistant ... view
• 13 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Gender, Children and Social Development:- (a) whether she could provide a list of the current beneficiaries under the Cash Transfer to Older Persons Programme in Gwassi Constituency; (b) the number of locations covered by the programme in Gwassi and how they were identified; and, (c) what criteria were used to identify the beneficiaries and when all the deserving persons will be included in the programme. view
• 13 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, from the answer the Assistant Minister has given today and from the volume of documents, you will realise that it is very hard to prove the additional information. However, I intend to ask the Assistant Minister questions on issues that can be addressed on the spot. My main reason for raising this issue is because, as the Assistant Minister has rightly put it, in my constituency, only one location, Kaksingiri West is covered. It has a poverty level of 72 per cent, which is very high. However, you will realise that the poverty level is almost ... view
