• 11 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, once the preparations have been done and the passengers are waiting to board the flight, you will not be accepted if you come late. First of all, it is not possible to get the boarding pass. That is what I meant. Dr. Besigye came when the passengers had already been cleared and were just waiting to board the flight. That is why we had to slot him in the next flight which is at 5.30 p.m. He will go back to Entebbe or Uganda. view
• 10 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was asked to hold brief for the Assistant Minister, Office of Deputy Prime Minister and Ministry of Local Government, but it looks like he has not come in. So, I would request that I continue. I will try to answer the Question. view
• 10 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) Yes, I am aware that the road is in a bad state of disrepair and this coupled with poor street lighting, leads to insecurity in the area. (b) To improve security along the road, the council has proposed to utilize Kshs583,800,000 in the financial year 2011/2012 to repair access roads in the city. Masaba Road forms part of the access roads to be repaired. To improve security in the area, the City Council of Nairobi will install street lights along the road. view

• 10 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Council is collecting some revenue. Once it has collected, it will seal off the potholes. I do not want to say specifically the amount of money which has been set aside because the Council is still collecting the revenue. view
• 10 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is true that they had started filling up the potholes, but because of the rains, you cannot expect them to do a perfect job simply because of the floods which we are experiencing in town.
