• 3 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I have not asked my last question. view
• 2 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I rise to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Minister of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security. I would like to know why he banned Bunge la Mwananchi at Jeevanjee Gardens. view
• 2 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Yes, he did! Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, we know that, that is a public parliament similar to us here. It is even sad that, that was done immediately after demonstrations on food prices by the public. So, I seek this Ministerial Statement to know why the ban, and when it will be lifted. view
• 2 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to support the Motion. I want to thank my colleague, Mr. Mbau for bringing such a very good Motion. We know that over the years, Parliamentarians have had very little or no role actually in the Budget process. This probably explains why year in, year out, there has been a discrepancy between what the House approves and what is actually spent by the various Ministries. I would like to support this Motion because this will give an opportunity to hon. Members to give their input in the Budget Statement ... view
• 2 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance to support the Motion. I do not want to repeat what other hon. Members have said. The Minister has really tried to address the issue being raised here. However, the answers he has given are unsatisfactory. About three weeks ago, we requested for a Ministerial Statement on the Safaricom IPO. That Ministerial Statement is yet to be brought to this House. Probably, some of the issues that the Minister tried to explain today would have been thrashed at that time. It did not happen. Regarding the sale of Grand ... view
• 2 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is my interpretation of what he said. In that case, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, since I know that there are a number of hon. Members who want to contribute, I just want to say that I support this Motion. view
• 26 Jun 2008 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Roads:- (a) whether he is aware that the construction of Kiptui Bridge in Konoin has been funded for the last five years and yet, its construction is not complete. (b) what budgetary provision the Minister has made in the 2008/2009 Financial Year towards the completion of that project; and, (c) what urgent measures he is taking to ensure that the contractor completes the work in appropriate time. view
• 26 Jun 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I thank the Assistant Minister for the answer. However, I have a few concerns, particularly, concerning the contractor who is on the site. Recently, the contractor who is on the site decided to take away the materials which were already there. In your response, you have not mentioned anything about the steps you will take against the contractor, apart from the budgetary allocations that you have put here. view
• 26 Jun 2008 in National Assembly: Finally, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I like the way the Assistant Minister has replied; that he is not aware. So, we are just confirming to you that the contractor actually ran away with some of the materials on site. So, what specific measures are you going to take against that contractor because that is not the only project? He is undertaking a number of projects in the district and he has been behaving similarly in those other projects. view
• 10 Jun 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It appears that the Assistant Minister does not have enough information surrounding this issue of Safaricom IPO. Maybe you should direct him to go and get further information so that he can specifically answer the question Dr. Khalwale has asked. However, after the floating of shares of Safaricom, at the moment, the Vodafone Company has 35 per cent of the stake. Mobitelea, which is still a mysterious company owns 5 per cent of the shares. All other private and foreign investors own 20 per cent which ultimately comes to 60 per ... view
