• 23 Jun 2016 in National Assembly: and classification is not going to end there. This is a continuous process. According to this Bill, even after six months, the CS can still bring an amendment to upgrade a road. This is just a beginning.

• 23 Jun 2016 in National Assembly: I heard Members talk about the issue of 22 per cent from KeRRA that goes to the constituency and the 10 per cent that is given to the CS. When it goes to the constituency, I am made to understand by the Members that only 22 per cent is handled by the constituency committees and the 10 per cent is not handled by the committee.

They gave contracts anyhow because it was time to go for elections and left Kshs140 billion pending bills to be settled by this Government.

I want to confirm to the Members here that the Jubilee Government has settled the entire ... view
• 30 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. On this Petition, let me assure the Member that we do not have a pending issue on a Petition. So, it will receive the first attention. Maybe in two weeks, we will be able to deal with it. I want to support Dr. Pukose and what you have said, Hon. Speaker. The solution will not be erecting bumps.
