• 21 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I know that you are a nationalist. I thank you for being a respectful citizen. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have no problem with any of these good citizens who are qualified to sit in the Commission but I have a problem with a whole community, with grievances, being excluded from representing their issues in the Commission. So, the Minister for Lands trying to bring an analogue of the Chief Justice, that is not an issue. The issue is, who is going to talk about what we lost in the National Land ... view
• 28 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I sat in this House waiting for this Motion. I appreciate the Leader of Government Business which I am part of for moving this Motion. We need to go to our constituents but why I really wanted to stand here to support this Motion is, first of all, to thank the President for ensuring that the Constitution is defended by refusing to assent to a lot of unnecessary things which are going to rape and savage the Constitution. view
• 28 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: There is no tosha! No civilian can direct a general. So I want your--- view
• 28 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am going to take my time because that is why I waited until this time. view
• 28 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is important that when we go home, we want the Minister for view
• 21 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this very important Motion. The concerns of hon. Members are very legitimate and the Government should take them into consideration. You can take the word of the Minister because he is a very honest Minister. So, whatever promises he has made, he will ensure that your concerns are taken care of. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we must approve the Vote on Account because there are several projects that the Government must undertake. Our soldiers are now under the view
• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to oppose this Bill. This is a very populist Bill. To me, it is totally meaningless because, first of all, our Traffic Police are doing a remarkable job. If, for example, you take Clause 117(b) to totally abolish the Traffic Police Department, you will have chaos. Take an example of Uhuru Highway. If we remove the Traffic Police from Uhuru Highway - I have just come from Karen - you will have chaos in this town. So, we must have modalities on how to resolve traffic problems. We need to make ... view
• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will speak the truth and that is why the hon. Member who is the Mover of this Bill is jittery because he has just confirmed now that his intention is to hang people. That is what he has said. If we pass this Bill and we have the likes of the Mover, the law makers, we will hang people every day in this country. This applies even to the people who could not have been on the wrong. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I said earlier, we should allow the comprehensive reforms taking ... view
• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady. This is a straightforward issue. Either this House wants to surrender its power to the Executive or it wants to retain the power on behalf of Kenyans. So, I support the amendment brought by the hon. Member because it is a straightfoward thing. Just put the question and we deal with it. view
• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chair, I stand to oppose the amendment. The guilty are afraid. All the people who are supporting this amendment are hopers of political parties. We cannot kill democracy in this country. It is only in this country that we have selfish legislators; people who want to help themselves because you want to jump from one party to another so that tomorrow, you can survive. We cannot kill democracy because you want to move from party to party. view
