• 24 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. We have said on the Floor of this House that four families are controlling 67 per cent of the Unga or Flour Industry. We have said in this House that the high cost of living in Kenya is induced by cartels. The calculation of the price of flour based on the price of maize is an open formula and even a class eight pupil would come up with an answer. We cannot sit here to wait for Kenyans to continue sleeping hungry because their salaries are fixed and the Executive ... view
• 24 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for the purpose of the record and so that we seem to read from the same script with the Attorney-General, there are procedures that we follow in this House. These procedures are popularly known as Standing Orders. Article 124 of our Constitution allows us to do the rules and procedures that we follow here. Under those procedures, Departmental Committees of this House operate under Standing Order No.198. Standing Order No.198(3) specifies what we can do and the extent we can go. According to Article 125 of the Constitution, the Committee of the House and this ... view
• 24 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I seek your further indulgence because the closing remarks by the Attorney-General seem to imply that the DPP cannot be summoned by any of the Committees of this House. It is important that I get some guidance from the Chair on the same because we do not want to gag any Departmental Committee of this House. As the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Cooperatives I have summoned Mr. Nyenze and I hope he will come with all the supporting information. I am inviting any hon. Member with any information to look ... view
• 24 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, while thanking the Assistant Minister for the Statement, could he be kind enough to name the specific vehicles that he has assigned to strengthen the patrol in that area?

• 24 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I wish to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Minister for Lands with regard to the intended purchase of the piece of land generally referred to as “ Wiyumiririe ”, ecologically classified as a cold desert, and a wildlife route of Solio Ranch, both located in Laikipia County, for Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) based in Naivasha and the adjacent IDP camps.

• 23 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would think the Assistant Minister is right to an extent. It is not practical to have police officers in every hostel. However, looking at our days in hostels, there was an officer stationed in the janitor’s office. That should be a mandatory requirement now. Is it possible for the Assistant Minister to instruct all institutions, including the hostels that we have down town that they must have a functional janitor’s office, which should be able to apprehend such attackers if and when they attack? Reports should be consolidated, so that he can manage this kind of ... view
