• 3 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: land in Athi River, which I never got. Somebody else got a title deed and sold the land. Really, if you want to say that Mr. Kiplagat killed Ouko or he was involved, you have to be more serious. That family would not have kept him as its trustee. All of us have attended funerals. We know that, once the person is buried, everybody says: “ Tutarudi ! We will come back to look after you.” It is only Mr. Kiplagat who went back to the Ouko’s family to look after them. Is that the kind of person you want ... view
• 3 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you. view
• 2 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. I realize that there is no quorum and yet we are debating a very important constitutional issue in the House. view
• 25 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Minister alluded that these people went into the forest after the post-election violence. Is it in order then for him to call them invaders while we know that all those who were displaced after the post- election violence are Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs)? Could these people not be regarded as IDPs? view
• 25 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Minister says that Members are entitled to one security officer. Hon. Karua is a Member of Parliament like me. Why does he say that Members of Parliament should have one security officer while others have up to five security officers? Why don’t you say that they are entitled to one to five security officers? view
• 25 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I think the Minister seems to have misunderstood my point; I was referring to Members of Parliament and not Ministers or the President, because hon. Karua is not a Minister but is a Member of Parliament like myself. view
• 18 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Pumping water involves use of a lot of energy. I would have thought that the best way to supply water to Kisumu City is by gravity means. Are there plans to convert supply of water through gravity system in Kisumu City? view
• 17 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The problem of delay in payment of pension is not only confined to Taita Taveta District. It is all over the country. In many cases, teachers fulfill all the requirements; they fill all the forms which are taken to the Teachers Service Commission (TSC). However, payment still takes very long. Teachers make several trips to Nairobi to push for the payment. The forms do not move unless the teachers have come back to Nairobi. What assurance are you giving this House that teachers will not have to come to Nairobi to push the forms? Could ... view
• 12 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Minister has indicated that they have not sold junior staff houses outside Nairobi. This means that they have sold junior staff houses in Nairobi. Why has he sold junior staff houses in Nairobi? view
• 16 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has mentioned that they privatised A.I. services in the 1990s, and farmers were to buy semen and use it themselves but that approach has not been successful in rural areas. It has only been successful amongst commercial farmers. When is the Assistant Minister going to introduce A.I. services in districts where breeding of livestock has gone down and farmers cannot afford to pay, as commercial livestock farmers do? When is he going to give us a subsidised price and have the technical staff in the districts to carry out A.I services? view
