• 24 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, while I thank the Assistant Minister for the answer, I would like to say the following: The contract began in January, 2011 and is expected to end in January, next year. We are in May, 2011 and I would like to confirm to this House that it is not true that the contractor has completed or achieved the works the Assistant Minister alleged. This is because I was there this morning. The problem we face is that the contractor lacks the capacity. Could the Assistant Minister confirm the capacity of the contractor against the works he has ... view
• 24 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has confirmed that, that road is very critical to the economy of this country. Indeed, in 2008, the Maasai Mara was declared one of the “seven wonders of the world”. The Assistant Minister has said that from Mai Mahiu to Narok - a stretch of 80 kilometres – they used about Kshs4.2 billion. On the stretch from Narok to Maasai Mara, they gave a paltry Kshs378 million. Why the contrast if you have to achieve the required standard of the Maasai Mara Road? Also, this Assistant Minister--- view

• 4 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is true that this Question has been coming up almost weekly. It was deferred because the Minister had been giving unsatisfactory answers, but last week she provided me with the registers and particulars of the IDPs. So, I am ready to interrogate the registers against the answer that the Assistant Minister is giving. I think that is the position. view
• 4 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wanted the Assistant Minister to finish reading his answer then I interrogate it but if you insist that I move ahead then I will do so. From the answer that the Assistant Minister is giving, he has indicated that those who are in camps are in about six districts because they include the forest evictees. My question to the Assistant Minister against the register that I have here is; are the registers exhaustive of the IDPs who are still in camps because the answer mentions only about four districts apart from the two where ... view
• 4 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is exactly what I am saying. When you are talking about Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) from the post- election violence, they were scattered all over the country. However, according to the list that the Ministry is providing, it only captures four or five districts. So, my question is; is the Assistant Minister confirming to this House, and the nation at large, that this list is exhaustive? view
