• 2 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. On Thursday, 21st July, you made a ruling to the effect that Prof. Sambili, should come and give a Statement and confirm whether GMO, indeed, has been imported to Kenya. That did not happen last Thursday. I request that the Minister responds to that particular order. For clarity, I will read your order. “Madam Minister, this is a serious matter. You have indicated to this House that, as far as you know, there have been no requests to bring into Kenya GMO maize. So, we will go by the import of that ... view
• 2 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. This is a Government that is not conscious about the health of her own people. I rose under Standing Order No.82 (2) and said that I should be allowed time to show that, indeed, GMO maize had been imported and is being consumed in Kenya. Right now, as I speak, lorry loads of GMO maize are being off-loaded in Laikipia, Wajir, Nakuru, Kinangop and all of it being carried in tipper trucks. Why the Government wants more time is so that it can offload and dispose all the GMO maize that has ... view

• 27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I seek your indulgence so that I can inform the Assistant Minister that, first of all, the answer lacks scientific basis. It is misrepresentation; when you claim that crocodiles attack human beings on being provoked, at what level does a woman drawing water, for instance, provoke a crocodile? There are 23 species of crocodiles and they are known. Out of the 23--- view
• 27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in a live transmission like this one, when an Assistant Minister avoids very basic science in the ecology of crocodiles, it is shocking. There are 23 species of crocodiles. Out of the 23 species, eight species are known to be man-eaters. I will read to him if he has forgotten his textbook theory the species that attack human beings. Among them is the Nilotica, which is the one that is prevalent in Kiambere. On construction of the dam, this--- view
• 27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Now, I will ask my question. Is the Assistant Minister aware that of the 23 species the Niloticus--- The Nile crocodile, commonly known as Niloticus, the American alligator commonly known “ Mississippiensis ”--- Out of the eight species, which one is prevalent in Kiambere and how many deaths have been caused by this view
• 27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am tongue tied to ask the last question given the weight of this particular Question that over 300 women among them, one lady by the name Joyce Ruguru, who was a mother of two, woke up at 4.00 a.m. and went to fetch water one kilometre away and was attacked by crocodile at 7.00 a.m. and was found dead after six hours. view
• 27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has not requested the Treasury in this year’s Budget to give him Kshs150 million. When will he do so that they can supply water to the residents of these three dams to avoid attacks by the crocodiles? view

• 27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is he in order to negate his own answer which he gave on 14th April, 2011? I read this from the HANSARD Report. He said that the best practice would be, and I read:- “However, the best thing we can do is to look for an option of putting boreholes around some parts of the dam and fencing off the area with chain link where people can access fresh water without being attacked”. That was the best practice according to the Assistant Minister’s own prescription on 14th April, 2011. Is ... view
