• 10 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: palm wine. If it could be licensed, defined by the authorities and packed decently in such a way that an hon. Member like me can go to a five star hotel and order mnazi without any of those foreign ingredients, that should be the spirit. That is because, at the end of the day, we are Kenyans. Whether we like it or not, people will still drink. The poor man will drink too. I want to give hon. Members another reason why they must support this Bill. The Bill seeks to educate the public about alcohol. In this Bill, we ... view
• 10 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you.That is misleading. I know of a family where a three- year old child told the father that they would like to have Pilsner so that they can be like view
• 10 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Those are misleading adverts. I am sure that the Kenya Breweries Ltd. is not in the business of killing Kenyans or converting human beings to be simba. We should have adequate and correct advertisement. In talking about promotion, this Bill has put into legal language what they themselves had agreed to do. For instance, you cannot have a billboard within 300 meters from a school and you have to do certain advertisements at certain times when children are asleep. That is being responsible. That is what this Bill says. Lastly, the Bill seeks to promote research and dissemination of facts. ... view
• 10 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: it is not about anything else more than having Kenyans have a drink that they wish to have, but that drink must be healthy, hygienic, legal and the Government must be able to collect its revenue based on that. Ultimately, all Kenyans will be able to do their work and what they are paid to do. We will not have to expand mortuaries as we did in Gilgil and other areas because of road accidents and other related incidents. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I would propose this Bill for days, but I want to call upon my very experienced friend, ... view
• 10 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: or busaa to second this Bill; that is hon. Peter Kiilu. I beg to move. Thank you. view
• 9 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it has become a habit for this Ministry to every now and then repeat the same answer, that they are doing something. When exactly will the Ministry take the appropriate action, so that very humble communities in the rural areas do not continue to experience this sewage mess? Similar cases have been reported in Mombasa, Naivasha and all over the country. To make matters worse, in a place like Emuhaya where we are talking about, the local people are not even employed by that institution and all they get is their shit. When will the Assistant Minister ... view
• 4 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Ministry of Environment and Mineral Resources. Having witnessed firsthand the death of millions of fish and fingerlings in Lake Naivasha over the last two weeks, I would like to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Minister for Environment and Mineral Resources touching on massive deaths. In his statement, he should name the chemicals used in Lake Naivasha and the level of current toxity and, more specifically, their half life. The Minister should also provide names of the suspected ... view
• 4 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to support His Excellency the President’s very informed Statement. I say “statement’ because it was a statement of facts. Nevertheless, it had some inherent problems. Looking at the entire Speech, we missed on the youth. As long as we do not consider the youth of this country, we will always have problems. I have looked at the document again and again and in as much as we would like to imagine that things will work out fine, as long as we do not consider the fact that over 75 per cent of ... view
• 4 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Constitution is long overdue. It will not come here. The best constitution is the one that delivered the children of Israel from Egypt to Canaan. That is the Ten Commandments. With due respect to the Muslim community, that which tells us do not steal, do not admire somebody else’s property, do not do this and that. That is the best constitution. Nothing will make us function as a country if we do not respect the fundamental rights of our neighbours, friends, or love ourselves as we love our neighbours. view
• 4 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I beg to support. view
