• 7 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think the Government is not taking the security of its citizens seriously. This is because if a Land Rover can stay for three years without being repaired, then there is no seriousness there. Could the Assistant Minister arrange maybe, to have a standby Land Rover because the breakdown of vehicles is not only in hon. Lekuton’s constituency but all over the country? If a vehicle breaks down in any station, they can be given a standby vehicle from either the Provincial headquarters or wherever it is, so that security is there for 24 hours. view
• 1 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I stand to oppose this amendment because I think it will violate the rights of persons. The best we should have done is to say the right can be violated through a court order. I do not support the amendment. view
• 1 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is very important to me because I have a game reserve currently owned by the county council and managed by the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) on their behalf. If it will revert to the national Government or State, that is against the spirit of the day. I do support the amendment. view
• 1 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support the amendment. view
• 1 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: My reason for supporting the amendment is that, among other things, Kenya is an agricultural country. Unless I am otherwise informed, we have no other way of earning external revenue for this country. There is no way you can have viable agriculture on 20 acres. You cannot put a limit on the maximum amount of land that one should own, especially if one can buy and use it. We should not use the constitution to “kill” the very survival of our economy. Today, there are large acreages that have tea and coffee, and we want to grow wheat and maize. ... view
• 1 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The intention of this amendment was to make the name to be consistent with the current name. The name which is listed in the First Schedule is an old name, in which the district was known, but all along, the county council has been known by the current name and I want to make it uniform. view
• 1 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to move the amendment. view
• 1 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to finalize now. Because of the uncooperative mood in the House, I wish to withdraw the amendment. view
• 25 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to thank the Member for raising this matter because if we had raised it, as women, there would have been an issue. It appears as if the media assisted by some people would like to trivialize the position of women in this country. We come here to represent people. We come here to use our mouths and brains to get Kenya to move forward. Therefore, it is extremely offensive to publish pictures of women’s legs. We are not ashamed of parts of our bodies but this is wrong. This is sexist and it must ... view
• 25 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. First of all, I would like to say that I do support the document as it is, but with amendments. view
