• 12 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I agree with my fellow hon. Member, Mr. Letimalo, that boreholes are a way of getting water, but not totally. In my constituency, there are huge mountains with a lot of rocks that could be an incredible water catchment area. Could the Ministry undertake a study in Laisamis District and find out how much rain water we can harvest from those mountains? view

• 12 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would love to believe what the Assistant Minister has said; that all those TV stations went up north because I have never heard of that.

Is there a specific plan they are following while trying to trace that disease? As Mr. Affey said, maybe they do not have adequate staff on the ground. Could they mobilise veterinary officers across the country to make sure that, that disease does not spread beyond Samburu? view

• 11 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Ministry has a problem of attracting and maintaining teachers. Some of these shortages are created by poor pay. We have lost many of our teachers to South Africa, Botswana and other countries. Could this Ministry devolve some kind of incentives to keep teachers interested in teaching our children? The quality of education keeps going down because there is lack of interest in teaching. What is the Assistant Minister going to do to ensure that there are some incentives to appreciate these young men and women who sacrifice to teach our children? view
