• 29 May 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think the hon. Member who has just asked this question was either not listening to what I said or conveniently wanted to say his own things. I have said that no report has been made that a young person was killed. The report that we have is that four police officers were also killed in cold blood by these raiders from Pokot and 15 Turkanas were also killed. The police officers died while pursuing these raiders. I would expect this House to sympathise with police officers because they are also human beings. No report ... view
• 29 May 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the reason why this Question was postponed three times is that we wanted to undertake an investigation to find out whether a young pupil was actually killed. We have done investigations and we have not found any evidence to the effect that this young person was killed. We have even looked for his family to give the report, but nobody is willing to come forward to do so. What are we expected to do beyond that? The police have done everything they can to find evidence of the death of this young man, but nobody ... view
• 29 May 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, seeing the picture of a corpse in a newspaper does not indicate that, that person was killed by police in cold blood. view
• 29 May 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have to take this issue seriously. The fact that there is a picture appearing in today's newspaper is not enough to make us conclude that police killed somebody in cold blood. We will be the first ones, as a Government, to take action if we are given any evidence that a police officer has acted in any way contrary to the law. The rules of this House do not allow us to quote newspapers and the Press as our evidence when we are investigating matters. These matters should be investigated. I am challenging Mr. ... view
• 29 May 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, when the police were undertaking that operation--- It is important to note that, that operation was being undertaken after the raiders had taken over 1,000 camels and killed 15 Kenyans in cold blood. That was when the police went there. The raiders engaged the police with fire and they killed four policemen. The reinforcement had to be brought to assist the police; otherwise, all the policemen would have been killed. When the reinforcements were being taken, that was when Messrs. Kamama and Moroto met the officers who were coming to reinforce their colleagues to apprehend ... view
• 29 May 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 29 May 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, as a lawyer, I cannot sit down and allow Mr. Raila to continue misleading the House. The parties he is naming are not recognized in this House, because no hon. Member in this House was ever elected under those parties. view
• 29 May 2007 in National Assembly: The NARC, even in the Registrar of Societies, is recognized as a party, not a coalition! Is he in order to continue misleading the House by naming non-existent parties? view
• 24 May 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to plead for more time because the information that I have been given is not sufficient enough to properly answer this Question. view
• 24 May 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the problem is that the reply, as taken from the police, is that they are not aware that this young man is dead. If I were to give this answer, I would not do justice to this very important Question because it involves the death of a young boy. I would like to be given time so that we do proper investigations to know under what circumstances he died. view
