• 29 Sep 2010 in National Assembly: (iii). Mandatory cattle branding policy. This is a must so that after recovering the animals, we will be able to know that these particular animals belong to Boranas, Turkanas or Meru. (iv) Intensive internal and cross-border conflict management and peace building initiatives. view
• 29 Sep 2010 in National Assembly: (v) Promotion of comprehensive socio-economic activities with frequent and long-term impact. view
• 29 Sep 2010 in National Assembly: (vi). Range management and improvement of the livestock economy and enforcement of compulsory education. That means that the Education Act must be enforced, so that pupils attend classrooms. Even if it is a matter of life and death, we must compel pupils to go to school. view
• 29 Sep 2010 in National Assembly: (vii). Review and restructuring of the Kenya Police Reservists (KPRs). We have been vetting the KPRs. In the absence of those illegal arms, they were also asking: “If one goon comes in with a gun and takes all our animals, what will happen?” So, we must vet the KPRs. The KPRs will also be supported by the security personnel, including the Police, Administration Police and General Service Unit. That is why we have contained the situation. view

• 29 Sep 2010 in National Assembly: (xi). Enhanced political consultation and collaboration. What we are doing with the Members of Parliament and leaders from that area must be improved and sustained. But we have been telling them also that if their animals are stolen, let them not exaggerate that, for example, out of five they add two zeroes to say they were 500. Honesty pays! (xii). Intensive public sensitization and campaign against cattle rustling. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we are currently in the process of implementing Phase I which will focus on cattle branding and disarmament to restore peace and security in the regions and ... view
• 1 Sep 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Minister should be here by now. I would say that when you do the second round, I think they will be around. In the meantime, I will try and call from the back-side in order for them to come immediately and answer these Questions. view
• 1 Sep 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) It is true that the Government may lose Kshs16 million following the demolition of police flats at Central Police Station. The Ministry of Public Works had not sent a prior warning that the flats were being constructed on a road reserve as alleged. The Ministry of Roads was part of an inter-Ministerial Police Task Force on Kenya Police Housing formed in March, 2004. The Ministry of Works carried out on-site investigations, topographical survey, design works and preparation of tender. During the site layout by the Ministry of Works, it was deliberately ... view
• 1 Sep 2010 in National Assembly: (b) On being informed by the City Council that parts of the new block would be affected by the expansion of the University Way Moi Avenue, a joint meeting between the Ministries of Roads, Public Works and the contractor was later held on 25th January, 2008 and a resolution made to the effect that the construction should go on as the proposed landing of the link road from Globe Cinema Round-about to Uhuru Highway through the site had been changed and, therefore, the new buildings would not be affected as previously indicated. Therefore, the contractor was allowed to continue with ... view
• 1 Sep 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is true that we have to reprimand the Ministry of Public Works. We have lost money and there was an inter-ministerial meeting which I would want to share with my colleagues here. On 26th January, 2008, there was site meeting. I will just read one line on the way forward when they met. It says: “Engineer Nyakundi informed the meeting that the proposed landing of the link road from Globe Roundabout to Uhuru Highway, through the site had been changed, therefore, the buildings will not be affected as previously indicated.” That was the meeting of ... view
