• 3 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It is very clear that this new CEO has reported in office. There is even a letter that was written by Amb. Muthaura, indicating that the CEO should not report to office, but he has already reported. We have read that he has been discharging his duties. It is wrong for the Minister to stand here and tell the House that the new CEO was asking for something like Kshs400,000. The salary of a CEO cannot be negotiated on the streets. He negotiated the job with the new CEO in the ... view
• 12 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: I also stand to support the adoption of this report. I will spend very few minutes. One thing I want to tell my colleagues here, and Kenyans wherever they are, is that all of us seem to be facing one major problem. The problem is failure by leaders and Kenyans to obey the laws of the land. When you hear about insecurity along our boundaries, you will find that we have security officers who man our boundaries but at the same time, that is where we have loopholes. If Kenyans can just be committed, and if we could be serious ... view
• 12 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to speak very much about leaders. We have a very heavy responsibility to teach the people we are leading how to obey the laws of the land. If we can just obey our laws, I want to say, with much confidence, that there will be no stealing and no insecurity along our borders, and our police officers will be able to manage the borders properly. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have baptised stealing in this country. People walk into our banks, steal money and walk out and nothing happens. Tomorrow, you will ... view
• 12 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, those of us from those areas like hon. Affey should tell their people to be watchful. view
• 12 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I address the Chair. I wish to say that it is the responsibility of the leaders who are in those areas to make sure those unwanted Kenyans are reported immediately. They are in those areas. There is no way we can love those characters coming into the country without permission. Since the issue before us is creating a lot of nervousness, I beg to support. view
• 12 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I am emphasizing one great point that Kenyans should obey the laws of the land to eliminate these problems. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we cannot continue to tolerate such people in our country. view

• 6 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also rise to support this Bill which is very important. In this country, the Ministry of Agriculture and the agricultural activities matter a lot to our people, more so, tea which generates the much needed foreign currency. Jobs are created through tea farming and it is a very important crop. A lot has been said here and I totally agree with those who say that it is important to make sure that the market is streamlined in such a way that farmers in this country can benefit from their sweat. We know there are ... view
• 6 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it has reached a point where the small-scale farmers cannot access loans to manage their crops in the farms. If the Minister wants to help farmers in this country, she should not look at the large-scale farmers. The multitude of people who are common wananchi have small farms. Those people should be funded so that they can buy agricultural inputs like chemicals so that they can grow crops. Sometimes, they go to shylocks and borrow money from them. Although the amount of money these farmers get from shylocks is very little, they pay very high ... view
• 6 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Technology is very important today and more so, to the farmers. So, it is important for the Minister to make sure that people work round the clock to make sure that the right technology is introduced to our farmers. There is change in everything, including weather and chemicals that make the plants drought resistant. All this comes through technology. So, it is up to the Minister to make sure that technology is introduced to the farmers so that they have the capacity. The Minister has done a lot and we wish her all the best to make sure that the ... view
