8 Apr 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, there is a section of a road that is a killer section. In actual fact, 83 Kenyans have died there. The victim number four was knocked down by a car from Bunge. This is Kinungi section. There is not a single warning. Leave alone foot bridges or anything, but we have lost 83 pedestrians over a period of three to four years. What are you going to do about this section, Mr. Assistant Minister?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want first of all, to send my condolences to the Assistant Minister, having lost his driver because of thugs last night. That is the only reason I think he has given such an inaccurate answer. Having said that, Kshs10 million was paid over a ten year period. If you do simple calculation in ten farms, that will work out to be about Kshs20, 000 or an equivalent of Kshs2, 000 per month.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, you heard that KBC owns 40 per cent of DSTV. That means that KBC which is the national broadcaster and is funded 100 per cent by the nation owns 40 per cent of DSTV. Could KBC then consider staying their profitability because the Kenyan public is the one which has been funding it, so that during the World Cup season we can enjoy DSTV services at 50 per cent?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I will go through it very slowly. The Assistant Minister has said that KBC owns 40 per cent of DSTV. The KBC is a national broadcaster which is financed 100 per cent by the public. Therefore, in these premises, could he consider, during this season of World Cup, to have DSTV charge 50 per cent subscription fees?

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Ministry of Agriculture in a matter touching on the import of 40,000 metric tonnes of Genetically Modified (GMO) maize. In the Statement, they should indicate and show why a company by the name of Luitoo (?) Kenya Limited was allowed to import maize of the GMO varieties that have not been authorized anywhere else in the world. What effects that will have on our gene bank here, because some of it is in the form of seeds? And, finally, what will happen to the local prices ...
