One was on 17th April, 2008 and the other was on 22nd April, 2008. However, the two incidents do not constitute what one would term as absurd. (b) There are no immediate plans of putting up a police post since the area is adequately covered by Makuyu Police Station, which is about three kilometres away. The police have intensified patrols in the affected area to prevent ... view
• 2 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Makuyu Police Station is serving this area and I added a patrol vehicle, with four more police officers to patrol the area. If the hon. Member wants, I can supplement the Administration Police officers to cater for any kind of upsurge. view

• 2 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you will agree with me that when we start to discuss the Votes of various Ministries, I have factored in an equivalent of Kshs200 million for purchase of new vehicles. Those areas which do not have vehicles will benefit from that kitty. view
• 2 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you will agree with me that, that is a completely different Question from what I was being asked; if the hon. Member wants to bring that Question, I will be very happy to reply accordingly. view
• 2 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, patrol vehicles are given where criminal activities are rampant. If in any event he knows any place which he thinks needs an extra patrol vehicle, I will look into the matter. view

• 25 Jun 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply.

• 25 Jun 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to assure the hon. Member that if there is any known case that my officer - a police officer - misuses the fuel which has already been supplied to him, I would want the Questioner to put it in writing to me, and I will take action. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the other bit is that we are giving Kshs500,000 quarterly for fuel supplies. If my colleague thinks that, that is not adequate, he can just write a letter and I will increase the supply of this important commodity with immediate effect. view
