• 14 May 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. Indeed, you are right. Let me move the amendment to the Motion and then I will debate the various sections, and explain why I am proposing an amendment. I beg to move:- view
• 14 May 2009 in National Assembly: THAT, the Motion be amended by deleting the full stop after the figure 2009 and inserting the words “subject to deletion of Sections 12.1.20 on page 41; 14.1.5 and 14.1.8 on pages 70 to 71; 14.4.6, 14.4.7 and 14.4.8 on pages 73 to 74 and 14.6.3 on page 75 of the Report. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the amended Motion will read as follows:- This House adopts the Report on the Departmental Committee on Agriculture, Lands and Natural Resources on food security and maize shortage in the country laid on the Table of the House on Thursday, 30th April, 2009, subject ... view
• 13 May 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. While I appreciate the collective responsibility on the part of the Government, this Government must also respect the pecking order. We have a full Minister in the House. Why is the Assistant Minister still continuing to purport to be representing the Leader of Government Business? view
• 13 May 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 13 May 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Chair has ruled in the past when I was present in this House that if a full Minister or a senior Minister is present in the House, an Assistant Minister should not and cannot purport to represent the Government! view
• 13 May 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I am raising this point of order with a lot of reluctance. Mr. Mbugua is moving round and threatening us. He has threatened me here by saying that I am planning to bring a censure Motion against the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance, and that I will see. He has now gone to the other side of the House, and it appears that he is doing the same. I think he should be asked to be orderly, even though I know that there is very little he can do ... view
• 13 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I support the Motion as amended. Let me start by thanking the Mover of the original Motion, Dr. Khalwale for making it possible for us today to discuss this issue that has been with us for a while. view
• 13 May 2009 in National Assembly: Before we went on recess, I proposed to move such a Motion, but the Government requested that we defer it, so that they follow diplomatic channels. As I talk today, even though the Government is hailing those diplomatic channels, they have not borne any significant fruit. I do not want to belabour the point of where Migingo Island or Kacheliba is because it appears now that even Ugandans have confirmed that they know it is our territory. view
• 13 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, when I was young, I used to fish up to Migingo Island. Even then I knew it was our territory. I was never harassed. In 1991, the first inhabitants of Migingo Island settled there. They were all from Kenya. As I talk today, about 90 per cent of the population in Migingo Island are Kenyans. Over 50 per cent of that population come from my constituency. view
• 13 May 2009 in National Assembly: I would like to point out that even with the map, the Ugandan Constitution and the Kenyan Constitution confirm that Migingo has always been and will always be in Kenya. Yesterday when I listened to the President of Uganda talk, I was amazed. First of all, the Government of Kenya must take immediate steps to protest to the President of Uganda to be a bit civil in his language. I do not understand how a President of a whole nation can abuse a community that forms a third of his own country. The Luos are not only in Kenya. There ... view
