• 28 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is a policy issue. We are consulting with the Ministry of Transport. Those are policies we are looking into and once the technical people have come up with a draft, those are the areas we are going to tackle. view
• 28 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is a very good question. The problem we are facing is that we do not have training facilities for boda boda riders, not even a driving school. We are liaising with the Ministry of Transport so that we can come up with a policy where they are required to go through a driving school or training in order to ride their motor cycles. view
• 28 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I said very clearly that we are going to encourage the training and it will be a must for them to go through a driving school. You cannot just wake up today and then start riding your motorcycle in the middle of the road. We are encouraging those who buy motorcycles to pass through a driving school or a training school. view
• 28 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, every boda boda rider will be licensed after going through a training institution or a driving school. There is no way they can get licenses without undergoing training. view
• 28 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in order for us to succeed in curbing this menace, I direct that the police officers must do their work. They must arrest those who flout or contravene the law. I am equally asking the Assistant Chiefs and chiefs in rural areas where we do not have police officers to inspect whether these riders are flouting the law. view
• 27 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish to seek the indulgence of the Chair to allow me to respond to this Question in seven days’ time. This is so because I have to find out where some of the inquiries are. I also have to talk to the appointing authority in order for us to get them released. view
• 27 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I agree with your ruling. But in the event that I will not be able to see the appointing authority within 14 days, I will come back to this House and request for more time. view
• 27 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, most obliged; I will do the same! view
• 19 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. Ololunga Location in Narok South District has experienced isolated incidences of carjackings and robberies in the recent past. To address the security challenges in the area, the Government has set up Ololunga Police Patrol Base and Ololunga Administration Police Camp. The establishment of the two police units will improve the patrol of both vehicle and foot. We have also enhanced intelligence information gathering in order to be pro-active. We are also deploying mobile flying squad personnel in order to deal with these criminals within these areas. view
• 19 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have done some arrests. I would want to notify the Questioner that during the harvesting season, namely, between the month of July and September, we normally have such incidences. That is the time the harvesting of wheat is taking place. So far, we have arrested five people who are helping the police with investigations. I hope that once we deploy the flying squad, a thing like this will not be repeated at the same time. view
