• 7 May 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Probably, I need to read the lines so that the hon. Member can understand what I am trying to move. The amended Motion should read:- "THAT, in view of the devastating effects that severe drought and the post-2007 election crisis had on farmers--" The words "severe drought and"-- I am sorry, I left out the word "and". These words should be added immediately after the word "that" in the first line. Then, on my second amendment, I think there is no contention on that one. view
• 7 May 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The reason why I am moving these amendments is because apart from the post 2007 crisis, there are some areas in this country that were hard-hit with drought. There are so many areas like North Eastern, parts of Coast Province and other Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs) that were hard-hit by drought, and the farmers took loans from the AFC and the ADC. These farmers will not be able to service their loans because the yields will not be as they expected. So, I request the House to consider amending this Motion to incorporate ... view
• 6 May 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I think the Assistant Minister should answer the Question very clearly because it is in the public knowledge that over 90 per cent of the deaths in Kisumu were as a result of police bullets whereas in other towns you could find that people died out of violence caused by civilians. However, the deaths in Kisumu were as a result of shooting by police. I want the Assistant Minister to explain why in Kisumu over 90 per cent of the deaths were as a result of police shooting. He has, indeed, said that some people ... view
• 6 May 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, whereas I thank the Assistant Minister for answering that question, if I got the question correctly, it was whether he could now confirm that Mumias Sugar Company has complied with the directive. The directive was given in September last year. Have they complied or have they refused to comply with the directive? If they have refused to comply, what is the Ministry going to do? view
• 23 Apr 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I would like to inform the Assistant Minister that even before the Ministry moves ahead to construct the headquarters for the new district that was created last year, they should consider constructing district headquarters for the districts that had been created previously. I have an example of my district, Suba District, which was created in 1995. The headquarters was gazetted to be at Gingo. As we speak today, it is only the district commissioner's house that is under construction. The district operations are still being conducted from the former Mbita Division offices which is ... view
• 23 Apr 2008 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, my names are Mr. John Mbadi Ng'ongo, the Member of Parliament for Gwassi. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to support the Motion and take this opportunity to thank the Membership of the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) for doing a good job. For a short period of time, they managed to go through and report on about four financial years. I think that they really did a good job. I will also not forget to thank the Office of the Controller and Auditor-General for moving very fast and being almost up to date with financial reporting. ... view
• 22 Apr 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is a problem that I wanted to bring up following the Assistant Minister's response about the District Roads Boards. We realise that there is money that the Ministry allocates for the maintenance of roads. You will find that in some constituencies, like my constituency, there is not even a road to maintain. Does the Ministry have a plan of, first, constructing the roads, so that we can have something to maintain? During the last District Roads Board meeting that I attended, my constituency was allocated about Kshs15 million. The roads in my constituency are completely ... view
