• 27 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I can see that the House has a lot discomfort when I talk about this but it is a fact. From western Kenya I can count not less than nine cabinet Ministers. In Nakuru, the last one was appointed in 1966. These Ministers drive cars, fuel there and eat there and that is development. With those remarks, I beg to support. view
• 22 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. About six times the Assistant Minister of State for Defence has said that this was a spontaneous reaction. The KDF store among other things arsenals including aircraft and tanks which are lethal to everybody. What mechanism exists within the KDF so that t those soldiers who decide to react out of emotions do not get out of their barracks one day with their deadly arsenal and then attack helpless civilians? Mr. Speaker, Sir, secondly, in the command structure of the KDF, did they trigger any mechanism that would have brought back these soldiers who apparently ... view
• 22 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first of all, I want to congratulate the Minister for Agriculture for going through what many people may not be able to go through. It has been nine years of negotiations. That is nine years of trying to convert colonial laws that had a philosophy of commercializing African agriculture by protecting the supremacy of European agriculture. These statutes done in 1950s had nothing better to offer except trying to protect the Europeans and then gladly trying to introduce Africans to commercial farming. That was the essence of these laws. Therefore, it should not be surprising when ... view
• 21 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I start by condoling all the families and relatives of those who have died in this most unfortunate situation. How long will the Minister of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security take to view
• 21 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I just want to add my voice to this Bill by requesting the Minister to consider that all examinations are carried by the university as it used to be with the Cambridge University. Ultimately, the universities are the consumers of these students. The onus will be on them to have quality examinations. That would also be a cost saving measure and will help avoid all the problems we have with examinations at the moment. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would request that all those who are holding degrees like Mr. John Mututho here, get ... view
• 20 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, listening to the Assistant Minister, it is clear that, that was an assassin either hired or something must have happened. How many such cases is he currently investigating in Nairobi to prove the point that we are either safe or very unsafe in this City? view
• 20 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am shocked by the response by the Assistant Minister. To say the least, first and foremost, there are over 40 Ministries and the response is on 23 Ministries. This means that there is a whole lot of Ministries that are not covered. In part (b), he has talked of responsive Ministries. That means that some could be of a lesser importance and others are supposed to report. We have not bothered with that. This Question has been with the Assistant Minister for over nine months and he had all the time. I am not satisfied because--- view
• 20 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am guided. I am not satisfied with the answer in its entirety. It is just a joke. There are no contracts attached and well over 18 Ministries are not covered. Last year alone, about Kshs41 billion was spent in advertisements. view
• 20 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I seek your indulgence because I have waited for a year to get an answer only to get this shoddy answer. I stand guided. view
• 20 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: No, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I stand guided. I am not satisfied with this answer because no contracts are attached and over 18 Ministries are not covered. More importantly, the figures mentioned here are just a skeleton of the actual story. view
