• 17 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this debate. From the outset, I would like to dedicate my remarks to the very rich and encouraging comments that I received from the people of Mukurweini, my constituents, on the day that the hon. Minister for Finance read the Budget. It was very inspiring. I can sum it that it was sort of welfare-ist. It gave a lot of encouragement to our people. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, one of my constituents sent me a message that carried a very good biblical quote, Romans Chapter 5 ... view
• 4 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to contribute and support this Report. First of all, I would like to congratulate my near-namesake, hon. Kapondi, who has truly lived the experience in prisons, which composes a large part of this Report. view
• 4 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Scanning this Report, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it comprises of important content that is also substantially generic and given the time that the Committee assigned itself for the visit-- I can see that they went to Langata Women Prison for one day.

• 4 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think it would have been more detailed, more specific and a little bit more clear if some more time was taken to unearth some of the details that have been reported in other reports by the oversight boards of the City Council of Nairobi and other reports that have been done by the private sector stakeholders on the performance of the City Council. It would have allowed the Committee to harvest from some of the branches, for instance, the water provider within the city, which should have provided an example of how some of ... view
• 4 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: You will remember, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, that the Water Department was one of the key departments cited as inept and very frustrating to the city residents. The fact that it was changed substantially should have informed the Committee to dwell a little bit more on some of the other areas. view
• 4 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, despite the fact that it is a very good Report that deserves our support, perhaps, the Committee should have also interacted and harvested from the other stakeholders, apart from the councilors. That is because reading through this, it appears that you did not spend enough time to talk to other stakeholders, view
• 28 May 2009 in National Assembly: Yes! view
• 28 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is very important that as we deal with this very important issue, it goes on record that we have a lot of love and respect for our Minister. The spirit and principle of collective responsibility makes us follow one way. However, I would like it to be on record that, indeed, in the last nearly six months, I have made various attempts within the Ministry to convene sometimes--- view
• 28 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am on a point of order. view
• 28 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, to assist my Minister, I will say that we need to be very candid but we need to tell the House the truth. Indeed, she has not sought the assistance of her deputies to deal with this matter and if she had, we would be doing it in a better way. view
