• 8 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: asked the Minister of State for Defence whether he could provide the per-district list of persons recently recruited to the Kenya Defence Forces, indicating the gender distribution in each district. view
• 8 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has invoked Standing Order No. 43(11). It says:- “A Question shall not seek information which, by operation of any written law, is secret.” Mr. Speaker, Sir, I asked for per district names of people recently recruited to the Kenya Defence Forces. The same Assistant Minister is on record saying previously in this House that they recruited 1,800 members in total. It would benefit this House if he explained how an indication of how many people were recruited from each district and the gender balance is secret. How secret is that? Could he explain to ... view
• 8 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you rightly quoted me when I said that the Assistant Minister not too long ago talked about recruiting 1,800. He even went further and said that 400 or thereabout of the same, were women. The question I am asking is view
• 8 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I also rise to support this Motion. When this saga came to the public knowledge it was a very big shame to this country. It was a shame when we came to learn that national identity cards were issued to foreigners. view
• 8 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, can you protect me from these loud consultations? I want to contribute in an environment where--- view
• 8 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, as I said, this was a very sad period in the history of this country when we learnt that national identity cards were issued to foreigners who had not even been naturalized as is required by the Constitution. The same foreigners were appointed to the police force and made Deputy Commissioners of Police. It is not only that; they were also given VIP treatment at our international airport and other places. This was really sad. If there is anything to call impunity, I think this is the highest state of impunity. The fact that these people ... view
• 8 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, however, Ms. Karua cannot escape blame however much she tries and I want to read--- view
• 8 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I think hon. Karua has not read this report. If she did, then she has forgotten. If you look on page five, it is very clear that the Committee faced serious challenges. The first was the attempt by the then Minister for Justice and Constitutional Affairs, hon. Karua and the Member for Gichugu, to stop investigations by the Committee on the flimsy ground that the issues the Committee sought to investigate were subject of investigations by the Executive appointed Commission of Inquiry led by a former Commissioner of Police, Mr. Shadrack Kiruki. The Member talked about ... view
• 8 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I still have time. Why should I be harassed? view
• 8 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I really do not want to go back to the point of order that has been raised by hon. Karua because I have already made my point. She has talked about raising a point of order. However, there is a letter which cannot be equated to raising a point of order. I just wanted my colleague, who is a very good friend of mine and a very strong Member of the Opposition, to be ready to take responsibility for what she did previously. This report is about the Government. The Member should accept that she was ... view
