• 22 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Bill with all my heart for the following reasons. Intelligence service has evolved over time. Even here in this country, it has evolved from those dirty days of the Special Branch Unit. We have seen ourselves also grow internationally in terms of intelligence to an extent that today the kind of intelligence we need is home-made and relevant to our needs. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, before I proceed, I know hon. Nkaisserry has already sent his condolences, but please, allow me to also send my condolences to the family of hon. ... view
• 16 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, more particularly for calling me Mr. Njenga because one time,I was sacked as a board member by one Minister because I called myself Michael Njenga. That aside, Mr. Assistant Minister, now you have established that this moran was shot outside the normal practice area, and that the bullet landed on the chest. It was not supposed to immobilize the moran because he was shot in the chest. Could you review the engagement or the contract we have with the British Army, so that such murderous acts will not reoccur? view
• 15 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is the Minister in order to very casually talk of people who were hijacked or whatever happened in January and not inform this House their status for the sake of their families who could be listening to this live transmission on what is really happening to those officers who were captured, carjacked or whatever happened this year? view
• 15 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, when will this Assistant Minister form the said council because as it appears, one of the major problems we have right now is that the people who are addicted to both alcohol and narcotics cannot afford any rehabilitation view
• 15 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I rise to support this Bill in its entirety. In supporting this Bill, I must sound a serious warning from where we work - the Committee of Agriculture, Livestock and Co-operatives - that the days of quacks bringing in anything and calling them seeds; the days when you would bring any material without any control; the days when you would pose as a seed breeder when in essence you do not have any breeders’ rights are long gone. Now it is time for us to reflect the seriousness of agriculture in the Kenyan economy. Out of ... view
• 15 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to move:- THAT, this House adopts the Report of the Departmental Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Cooperatives on the Inquiry into the Receivership at the Kenya Planters Cooperative Union (KPCU) Ltd, laid on the Table of the House on Tuesday, 6th March, 2012. At the outset, I want to remind hon. Members that the KPCU Ltd is owned by one million farmers. These one million farmers have built that resource now commonly known as the KPCU to an extent that at the time when the World Bank and others refused to give any support ... view
• 15 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I stand informed. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want, to the shock and awe of the House, to confirm that all the equipment at KPCU has been looted. I wish to table an extract of the Occurrence Book (OB) from Kamukunji Police Station confirming that, indeed, lorries have been taking the hard-earned factory as scrap metal from that KPCU place. It is for this reason again that this Committee recommends that Deloitte and Touche in the spirit of Article 46 of the Constitution---. It is in the spirit that we recommend that Kenya view
• 15 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you for that information. But I was saying that if it was in any country, at least, the mills that turn down the economy could have been preserved, but not taken to be scrap metal. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I now invite my deputy to second the Motion. It is one very emotional Report. I would speak for ten hours on end, but everything is crystal clear. But if you could pass a message to your brother, the Minister for Co-operative Development and Marketing that tomorrow, he should send genuine police officers there to take stock and take ... view
• 15 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to thank all hon. Members who have contributed and particularly the commitment by the Executive that they are looking at this matter more seriously. I pray that they do exactly that, as they have pledged. Where investigations are required, let them go for it and where further investment is required, let them go for it. I cannot wait to see the Kenya Planters Co- operatives Union (KPCU) back again not withstanding that there is Kenya AAA which is owned by the KPCU and which must not die. Internationally, that is worth over Kshs40 billion. ... view
• 14 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I support this Bill and take a slightly different view from that of the Minister in respect to mitumba . Because most of us can afford a few nice clothes, they forget that many Kenyans walk naked. Many Kenyans cannot even afford a blanket or something like that. We have seen under the help of the Minister for Finance that the last few days, at least, they can get a tie for Kshs5 and a jacket for about Kshs20 or Kshs30. These are some of the parameters that we should consider. Whereas we do appreciate ... view
