• 30 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is also something that I wanted the Minister to explain. Under the Ministry of Finance, you will realize that this country is investing in African Re-insurance Corporation, additional funds; Kshs159 million. I know that sometimes it is a legal requirement, but why should we prioritise that now? Can you explain to this House why we have to invest in equity participation in foreign financial institution? view
• 30 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Finally, the absorption rates of capital expenditure are very low. I want to ask the Ministry and more particularly the Treasury, do we have a department in that Ministry that is tracking down the reporting system by Ministries and Government agencies? The main reason why donors, probably, are not giving us money is because they realized that the absorption rate is only 31.5 per cent, yet the absorption of the Government of Kenya funds is at 82 per cent. The reporting system by Ministries and Government agencies is deficient. Why is this so? If Ministries and Government agencies have no ... view

• 29 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Minister has repeated twice about 260 constituencies. Could we get clarification on this? view
• 29 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I will forgive the Minister because he was born in Coast Province and I was born and grew up along the shores of Lake Victoria. All along this ban has never been there until recently. There was fish and in plenty. O mena, Nile Perch and Tilapia were there.

Why can ... view
• 29 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I just want to ask for your direction regarding this matter. This is based on what the Assistant Minister has answered with regard to Mr. Nyamweya’s question. I just want to read the court’s decision. The last paragraph says:- “No evidence has been tendered by the prosecution to show that the accused intended to permanently deprive his employer of what rightly belonged to the company.” It goes ahead to say: “Shoddy investigations were done and the accused speedily called before court merely on instructions from above.” The court goes ahead to say ... view

• 24 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Assistant Minister has alluded to the fact that this is a private investment. It is on record that the Government said it sold this hotel. When a Government sells an hotel, is it a private investment or a public investment? view
• 23 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The hon. Member for Rangwe has made a very serious allegation, which I feel, should not go unchallenged. He said that he has never seen tourists in that area, and that may be misconstrued to mean that tourists do not go to Ruma National Park, which we share with him, and the bulk of which is in Gwassi. Is the fact that hon. Ogindo has not seen tourists in his area a matter of national concern? Could he withdraw the serious allegation that tourists do not go to Ruma National Park? view
• 23 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Let me also first thank the Vice-President and Minister for Home Affairs for attempting to answer this Question. Just like my colleagues have expressed concern about the answer given--- view
