• 15 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. You have heard hon. Munya say that it is the media that misleads the country to think that, that the problem is in Isiolo. I want to correct that version, that we do not go by media reports. We go to the actual place. We have contained the insecurity in Tigania East and Isiolo Town. view
• 15 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. The Member for Kamukunji is misleading this House. He requested for an additional police post within his Kamukunji Constituency. I told him to identify the place and then do a note to us and we will go with him and take the security personnel to that place. Again, I did indicate to him that we are waiting for some vehicles which are on high seas, and that once they arrive, he is one of the fellows who will benefit from those vehicles. So, I do not think that he is right ... view
• 15 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, let me also confirm to you that within Nairobi itself and not just Kamukunji, we have beefed up security completely. I want to go overboard and say that it is not just in Nairobi that we have beefed up security, but also in the whole country, including Isiolo, Garissa, Marsabit, Moyale, including your own place. I do sympathize with his situation, but for political reasons, he has to raise those issues in order for him to be heard. But I also must raise these issues as the Government, for me to be heard that Nairobi is ... view
• 15 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. You know, when we look for the sources from where criminals come, we must talk of various issues, including the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and the refugees. view
• 14 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you can recall that this question was ably answered by the substantive Minister. The Questioner was giving me the chronology and the background of this Question. He tells me that the substantive Minister promised to table a report. I have not been to the office since morning but I have indicated to him that I will check with my substantive Minister whether the report is ready or not. I would request that we defer the Question to next week in order for me to consult with him on the same. view
• 14 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg the indulgence of the Chair to allow this Question to appear tomorrow afternoon since they were having dialogue with the nurses this morning. I sincerely apologize on behalf of my colleagues for not appearing. view
• 14 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: I have already answered this Question. Learn to tell the truth. view
• 14 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you are absolutely right. What was remaining was to show proof that, indeed, I took action against the officers who were found with stolen goods or found handling stolen goods. My proof is herewith tabled. view
• 14 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: I interdicted the three officers and charged them with handling stolen goods. I have copies of the interdiction letters for his perusal. I also have evidence that I managed to transfer all those officers who had been in Molo. I transferred then to various stations simply because they were not doing what they were supposed to do within Molo. I have a long list which I know the Chair will find time to go through. That is the proof which I indicated to the House that I will show and share with my colleagues. view
• 14 Mar 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there are a number of ways of killing a cat. Once you have identified a criminal, you can take him to the International Criminal Court (ICC). Once you have identified a criminal, you can take him to court. Once you have identified a criminal, you can fire him; dismiss him completely. I have done the latter. I have fired the criminals and taken them to court. Through these interdiction letters, as you can see, I have proved that I have interdicted them and taken them to court. view
