• 16 Dec 2008 in National Assembly: Looking at the past, the Kenya National Assembly, which is the representative body of Kenya, must lead in the Constitution-making process. If we let the Executive, of which I am a Member, to be overly represented in the Select Committee, then we will see the Executive driving the constitutional review process. Looking at the proposed names, you will see 12 Cabinet Ministers, four Assistant Ministers and two whips. That makes them 18, which makes them the majority in the Committee. That gives room for the Executive to manipulate the constitutional review process again. We will then be unable to reach ... view

• 7 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for reminding me. I hope that the other Members who were debating the report in advance, could also take note of your ruling; that this is not the time to anticipate debate. They have to proceed with the Motion for Adjournment. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there has been a big problem in the country concerning insecurity. Even as we adjourn, I hope the police force can come up with a better plan to deal with the insecurity that is now all over the country.

Are we amending the Motion? view
• 30 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. The hon. Member is reading the Motion as amended, but he is not reading the amendment itself.

Which particular words are you removing and substituting which words for them; then you read out the Motion as amended, and then it will be properly before the House. Right now there is no amended Motion before the House. view
