• 4 Dec 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I do not think it is in order for the Minority Leader to say that Madam Kaindi did not kill enough people in Nyanza. That is incitement and we cannot continue with business in this respectable House, when such a reputable person holding the highest office in this view

• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. In fact, we have been very much concerned with extra-judicial killings. I believe that it is clearly not in order to just kill suspects, instead of prosecuting them. I would also like to clarify to the Chairman, who made reference to the Member for Lamu West. He was actually answering the Member for Lamu East, my colleague. So, he needs to be careful when answering questions. view

• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, on the matter of extra-judicial killing, I need a proper clarification on whether the police killed the right people. We would be very worried and disappointed to see people being killed and being branded “terrorists” or whatever. So, I would like him to come out clear on this one. We need to improve our policing. We have a very poor structure in the Police Force. Therefore, I would like this matter looked into thoroughly, instead of having police officers just killing people to prove that they are working. view
• 30 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I appreciate the need to support this Motion given the fact that since 2003, when the Government initiated the free primary education programme, which is a very important initiative, the prices of teaching materials have changed against a constant capitation per child. So, I see the importance of reviewing the capitation per child under the free primary education programme. I would also like to take this opportunity to urge the Government to prepare for the transition of the children from primary school to secondary school, so that those who complete primary school can be ... view

• 30 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, as we allocate this money, we have to consider the diverse nature of the various parts of this country. Whereas some parts of this country are strategically located closer to manufactures of education materials, other places, like Lamu County, where I come from, are very far away from the manufacturers. So, schools in such far-flung areas need transport budgets to transport the materials they need from the manufacturers. Therefore, it is my feeling that primary education is not yet entirely free. If you allocate a school in Nairobi the same amount of money as a school ... view

• 30 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: It is also good for the Government to support the Kenya Institute of Education (KIE), so that we can source primary education materials from the same place to ensure that schools across the country have materials of uniform standards. I also see the need to consider private schools. The children who go to private schools are not private children. We also have private primary schools. Therefore, this programme should also cover private primary schools because children who go to private schools are not private children. Although private schools are owned by individuals or groups of people, it is our children ... view
