30 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) problem has been played over and over again in slow motion, in video and audio. Everybody knows what we are talking about. What remains mysterious is the inability of the Government to come up with a lasting solution to this problem.

As we support these new ventures, we would like, as an emergency measure, ...

25 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, indeed, what the hon. Assistant Minister says is true. I commend them for showing genuine concern in settlement of the crisis.

We can use those funds to buy these people land collectively and facilitate them to integrate within the community. Could they reconsider their overall policy; instead having to look at one big piece of land which may never be available; or makes another community feel segregated and ...

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, dealing with the Assistant Minister, Ministry of Provincial Administration and Internal Security is exciting sometimes; he can react or respond accurately sometimes, all the time assuring us that, at least for tonight--- When children under 18 years of age go to buy alcoholic drinks from a supermarket, that supermarket risks being fined Kshs150,000.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the last time that, that Report appeared on the Order Paper, we were more or less ambushed with it. We were not notified and we found it in the last six hours. We said that we are ready now to do that and it has taken a whole one month. If at that time it had passed through the HBC and they were ready and able to do it---
