• 7 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: I am answering a point of order! First of all, I want to ask--- view
• 7 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: I have not responded. Hold your horses! First of all, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I wanted to tell my sister, Ms. Martha Karua, that probably she came in a little late. I am repeating exactly what Mrs. Odhiambo-Mabona said about why ladies did not apply for these positions. I am saying that is not the reason. We want ladies to apply because that is the way of defending them. I am encouraging them publicly in the national Parliament that, “Ladies, when positions are up for application, please, do apply. There is nothing diatribe about that. view
• 7 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: You know you do not fight for people just by appearing to pretend. This is the mistake that we make in this country. Do not think if you are a lady, you are the only one who can support ladies. I have said that if there are 12 applications and only two by women, that is not good. As a country, we are saying, “Ladies who quality, please, apply”. That is the only way! view
• 7 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to complete my contribution by saying this, we have the CIC; it should be seen as a friend to the various stakeholders involved in the implementation process.

• 7 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. Is it in order for the Minister to try and give a negative view on what the National Integration and Cohesion Commission (NICC) did, while the Act of Parliament that set up that Commission, which he participated in passing, explicitly gives the mandate to review the appointments in the Civil Service and give us the information? So, the Commission completely did its work. That is what the Commission is supposed to do. Why is the Minister misleading the House and the country that what they did is wrong? view
• 7 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 7 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Yes, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 7 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I just want to read out to the Minister what the Constitution says. It says:- “The sovereign power belongs to the people of Kenya and that sovereign power can be exercised either directly or through their democratically elected representatives.” view
• 7 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Is it, therefore, in order for the Minister to selectively demonstrate democratically elected representatives as the only avenue of people’s participation and exercising of sovereign power and yet the first provision is direct exercise of that power? view
