• 17 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, from the outset, I want to thank the Assistant Minister for Lands for this answer. However, is he aware that with the new changes, Zombe falls under Mutito District? This is the case and yet some of these sections now fall under the new districts and are not completed. Since one of the Assistant Minister’s officers is there, could he consider moving the operations from Kitui District to Zombe District for ease of work? view
• 17 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister in his answer for Ithumula, Thua, Kitoo and Musukini said that these documents were forwarded to the Ministry on 30th August, last year for fair printing of the maps. How long does it take to print these maps and what has he done to ensure that the process is hastened so that wananchi do not suffer as a result of waiting for these documents for too long? What is the shortest period one can get this document? view
• 12 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also join my colleagues to condemn this action which portrayed Kenya as a country which could not tolerate divergent views which were then contrary to the expectations of the then Executive. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the new Constitution has now opened doors for people who have suffered from the first, second, third and many other republics to come, to be able to petition Government as and when issues of unconstitutionality occur like this one. Hon. Martin Shikuku is one of the respected veterans and freedom fighters of this country. Had hon. Jean Seroney been alive today, he ... view
• 12 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also wish to join my colleague in thanking Madam Minister for having looked for funds to do this water project. However, you will realize that Nzangathi and Thua divisions, which were under the Minister’s former constituency, but now are in Mutitu, are not served by the pipeline. They are also challenged in terms of water. Could she confirm that they will be included in the design to ensure that they also benefit from this water project? view
• 11 May 2011 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Lands:- (a) whether he is aware that between 1992 and 1993 some areas of Thua Sub-location in Zombe Location were surveyed and other areas left out and no title deeds have been issued to date; (b) whether he is also aware that Ngungi and Kasunguni Sub- locations were surveyed and no title deeds were issued, and that Malatani Sub-location has not been demarcated; and, (c) what immediate steps he is taking to ensure that title deeds for the surveyed areas are issued. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I apologize for coming late. view
• 11 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have just asked the Question and thought you were giving your ruling. view
• 11 May 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The traditions and precedence of this House must be followed. It is very clear that when the Chair makes a ruling, the matter cannot be revisited. Would I be in order to request you to give direction on that matter? view
• 11 May 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I rise to second this Motion. Before I get to the depth of it, I want to take this opportunity to congratulate hon. Namwamba for having thought it prudent to bring this Motion to the House. This is not hon. Namwamba’s Motion. It touches on the lives of millions of Kenyans who go for days without a meal. Last year, we promulgated a new Constitution which guarantees all Kenyans the right to food. As we debate this very important Motion, if you look at the Front Bench, namely, the Executive Bench, you will notice that there ... view
• 11 May 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, because of the high cost of fuel, the cost of transport has gone up. The Prime Minister told us that the cost of kerosene, which is used for cooking in most of the houses in Kenya today will go down. However, I want to assure this House that the cost remains constant; that is where it was before the pronouncement by the Prime Minister. view
• 11 May 2011 in National Assembly: If you look at the case of Tunisia which started the now popular uprisings in Arab countries, you will find that one of the reasons for this was the high cost of living. I want all of us to support this Motion because when the ordinary Kenyan out there gets fed up, we are also not safe. You will see uprisings and those are what we want to stop by asking for the formation of this Committee, so that it can interact with wananchi and the Executive, and do the work which the Executive has decided to ignore. We have ... view
