• 15 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to start by thanking hon. Imanyara who saw it fit to bring this Report to the House, a report whose presentation to this House was delayed. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this country will recall that we have so many cases of unresolved murders. The Mover has mentioned Pio Gama Pinto, 1965, who was killed in cold blood. Tom Joseph Mboya, 1969, died as a result of a bullet. Up to now, it has not been resolved. J.M. Kariuki was murdered brutally in 1975. The list is long. More recently, we have the ... view
• 14 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs the following Question by Private Notice. (a) Why are Kenyan fishermen residing in Migingo Island on Lake Victoria continuously being harassed by Ugandan Security Forces? (b) Was the Joint Boundary Survey commissioned by the Kenyan and Ugandan Governments completed and, if so, provide the report to the House? (c) What steps has the Government taken to implement the resolution passed in the House urging the Government to use all possible means available to reclaim the island, including registering the dispute with the United Nations Security Council? view
• 14 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has not even completed answering the Question. He has only answered part “a” of the Question. Could he finish before I ask my supplementary question? view
• 14 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is sad that the Assistant Minister can only manage to give such a lazy answer to this important Question. This is the only country that keeps on referring to another country as a friendly neighbour when that country harasses its citizens. I do not understand how friendly the Ugandan Government is when it harasses the Kenyan citizens who are undertaking normal economic activities within their territory. When the communiqué was issued, which I witnessed in Uganda, we agreed and the Assistant Minister has reiterated in his answer that there would be an immediate withdrawal of ... view
• 14 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I do not understand why the Assistant Minister should hope when my question is very clear. I have asked: Now that the Ugandan Government has refused to withdraw its security forces from Migingo Island as was agreed, why has the Kenyan Government not also maintained its security forces on Migingo Island to provide security to Kenyan citizens? I am not calling for war. I am asking why you are not providing security to Kenyan citizens on Migingo Island. view
• 14 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I was a bit concerned when the Assistant Minister said that we would go to the ICC. Anyway, he has corrected himself, although informally. We have been on this matter for far too long. Since this House has resolved on what the Government needs to do, and the Government has refused or failed to do it, could the Assistant Minister now tell this House categorically what steps the Government is going to take to reclaim this island once and for all, because it is in Kenya? It is in my constituency. Could he tell me when ... view
• 9 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs the following Question by Private Notice. (a) Could the Minister explain why Kenyan fishermen residing in Migingo Island in Lake Victoria are harassed by Ugandan Security Forces? (b) Could he state whether the Joint Boundary Survey commissioned by the Kenyan and Ugandan Governments was completed and if so, to provide the report to the House? view
• 9 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have just heard the Deputy Leader of Government Business requesting that this Question be deferred until Tuesday, next week. This is a Question by Private Notice and I filed it two weeks ago. It was deferred last week because the Minister was not in the House to answer it. I think it will be unfair to me if this Question is deferred again. view
• 9 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, before this sitting of Parliament started, I got a call from the Office of the Assistant Minister telling me that they have made necessary arrangements and that the Acting Minister for Foreign Affairs was going to answer this Question. As I said earlier, this Question was filed two weeks ago. Last week, it was deferred and it is a Question by Private Notice. Further, I had already raised the same issue in form of a Ministerial Statement and the Ministry deliberately failed to issue that Statement, until I was advised now to file it in the form ... view
• 8 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The other time that the Assistant Minister brought a Ministerial Statement to this House, it was later disowned by the substantive Minister in that Ministry. Mr. Speaker, Sir, could you, kindly, ascertain--- view
