• 22 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is very sad when the truth is not told. In this case, the truth has not been told.

• 22 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: I apologize, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. What I meant to say is that, of course, that is the reason why in Section "b", we are asking for an independent 3824 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES November 22, 2006 investigation, because the police in Nakuru, who killed this young man, are not about to investigate themselves.

Energy is very key in the development of this country. It is the engine of our economic development and activities. Once the energy sector has a problem the entire economy suffers. I would like to talk about electricity because ... view
• 21 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: I have been watching what has happened in Uganda as regards the power sector. I have seen serious problems of the inability of the Government of Uganda to supply electricity to its people. This is because Uganda's economy has been growing but there has not been serious development of new sources of energy or hydro-power stations in that country. I know that it is not easy to find funding for some of these very big projects, because sometimes the donor community is very strict in the terms and conditions that they impose on our countries when we want to borrow ... view
