29 Jun 2010 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is the Assistant Minister in order to mislead this House that by December 2009 the money had been disbursed to the constituencies, while we are aware that just a portion has been advanced in 2010 and so, by December, 2009, there was no money which had been disbursed to the constituencies and districts?

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is the hon. Assistant Minister in order to evade answering this question on criteria? If you look at Bureti Constituency where the Minister comes from, it was allocated Kshs30 million. The neighbouring constituency, which is Sotik, was allocated Kshs7 million. What is the rationale for that, if not favouritism?

24 Jun 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Minister of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security with regard to the recent upsurge in crime and violent robberies in Nyanza Province in the past few months. Specifically, I would like to ask the Minister to explain the circumstances leading to the recent sharp increase in violent crime in the province and, especially, after the last changes in the top leadership of the provincial police force in the province.

Secondly, I also request the Minister to explain to this House what the Ministry is doing to curb cases of firearm robberies which have become common in Nyanza. At that point, I would pause to add that in the past three months, we have lost lives in Kombewa and, just yesterday, we lost lives in Nyakach. We have lost lives in Riyat in Kisumu. A doctor lost his life in Kendu Bay just a few months ago after seeing off his guests. The trend has been worrying.

Thirdly, could the Minister state the general policy on police road blocks which have, all of a sudden, cropped up in the province, specifically addressing the number that we need, the location and possible effects of those road blocks on the economy of Nyanza Province?

Finally, the Minister should state whether he is aware that the transport system and economy of our province is being adversely affected by the many unnecessary road blocks which do not bear any fruits in the general security of the area.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the report I get from the area Member of Parliament is that the bridge is very narrow. That is the cause of this problem. Is this an emergency situation or the Ministry of Roads does not have a policy on how to maintain roads and repair bridges?

23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am surprised that my good friend did not understand my question because I thought I was very clear. Why does the Ministry allow the deterioration of these bridges to become an emergency when they should have a clear policy on how to maintain them alongside roadworks?

23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Sometimes back, I think more than a month ago, I sought a Ministerial Statement from my friend, the Minister for Foreign Affairs, with regard to the steps they had taken to reclaim Migingo Island, which is illegally occupied by Ugandan forces. To date, I have not received the Statement. Since the Minister is in the House today, I would request that he gives that Statement; being a very good friend of mine and knowing my suffering, he does not like my suffering and, by extension, the suffering of my constituents. Thank you, Mr. ...

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, since the Statement is ready, could he give it on Tuesday afternoon then? It is just a difference of one day. I hope that this time, my friend will give the Statement.
