18 Jan 2011 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the Minister to continue misleading the House, while he knows very well that the reason why Ministers and public officers are asked to step aside is â and in their own words when they step aside â it has become a tradition to say that they are leaving to give room for fair investigations? The main reason for stepping aside is to give room for fair investigation. It is not that a body is incompetent or not. Could he explain why, this time round, you are leaving ...

18 Jan 2011 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is the Minister in order to apply double standards? In the Report that the Government asked the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Education to step aside, could the Minister prove that in that case, there was anything that asked that Permanent Secretary to step aside? As far as I am concerned, that Minister stepped aside to give room for investigations. Why is it that in this case, investigations are going on and yet, the officers are in office? Is that not double standard? Is it in order for the Government to ...

18 Jan 2011 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister, in his response to hon. Ethuro, did say that it is us, hon. Members of Parliament who need to inform the Ministry whether these projects are implemented or not. Does your Ministry have supervisory capacity to follow up the projects that you are implementing in various parts of this country? Do you really require hon. Members to bring this information to your attention or do you need to employ supervisors and engineers to go and check whether these projects are implemented?

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Whereas I do not deny that I accompanied the Minister to the celebration with the Endorois people and actually I identify myself with the Endorois because I am also marginalized, I have head hon. Ethuro saying that I am a lieutenant of hon. Orengo. Could he clarify that title because I have never known that I hold such a title?

18 Jan 2011 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, whereas I support the request for withdrawal from the Minister, I just want to make a comment about the rush and the quick judgment by the Minister for Justice, National Cohesion and Constitutional Affairs. I think it is not right for the Minister for Justice, National Cohesion and Constitutional Affairs to go out there in the public and start condemning Parliament for having gone on recess without passing crucial legislations and making the public look at this august House as being irresponsible whereas he knows very well that we deferred these particular Bills because we felt we ...

18 Jan 2011 in National Assembly:
You portray us to the public like we are irresponsible members of this society; people who would want to go on recess when we have business to transact. Mr. Speaker, Sir, finally, I would also like to ask the Leader of Government Business and the House Business Committee that before you recall hon. Members from their recess - because we do not go on recess just for nothing; we go on recess also to transact constituency business â he should be sure that when we come back we have business to transact. This is not the first time that we ...

22 Dec 2010 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I appreciate your ruling and I think it is right. However, given that, that particular Ambassador has advised his country to deny some Committee Members of this House visas, are we not exposing Members of those Committees to the risk of being denied visas?
