27 Aug 2009 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want the Assistant Minister to assure this House that, indeed, the Government has not been systematically targeting Radio Africa Group from the time they exposed the error in the Supplementary Budget? The arrest and arraigning in court of those two journalists in court is just a tip of the iceberg. Their main aim is to close Radio Africa, the Star Newspaper and continue harassing other media houses.

19 Aug 2009 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. As I said, this Question is very serious. The Assistant Minister is not addressing the concerns of Members of Parliament. What is the Government doing to ensure that the locals are involved in a level playing field, so that the multinationals do not continue holding the Government and Kenyans at ransom as far as prices are concerned?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, this Assistant Minister is very conversant with issues concerning the Port. He is one of the principal players in that field. Could he confirm here that the lives of those boats have actually expired? If not, how many years does a boat take to expire?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is no wonder the free primary education programme has become a failure and parents have to dip into their pockets to finance it. In his answer, the Assistant Minister has said that they provided money for accommodation for the students to go to Mombasa, and yet they did not provide transport. According to the answer the Assistant Minister has given us, each child was to get Kshs21 for transport. Surely, how does he expect a child to get to Mombasa with Kshs21? Is the Ministry serious? What has the Ministry done to make sure that the ...

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the Assistant Minister to mislead this House that they did not allocate Kshs21 per pupil for transport, and yet he has tabled his answer before the House? He has tabulated it clearly that the money allocated is Kshs21 per child for transport?

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, could the Prime Minister be more precise and tell us how much has been allocated to each and every constituency for the KKV programme? In my constituency, they only worked for one week and they were not paid.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is exactly what I am doing. When will the youths who worked for two weeks in my constituency be paid?
