• 15 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am going to repeat the question very slowly. Is the Minister aware that this country is not getting drugs from well established drug manufacturers who are rated highly in the world? As a result, Kenyans are dying because they are taking drugs which cannot help them. I hope this time the Minister has understood the question. view
• 8 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: asked the Minister of State for Defence:- (a) whether he could confirm that there are bombs in Gitura Division, Kandara Constituency since colonial times and that, there are army officers guarding them on a daily basis; and, (b) whether he could table the assessment report on the bombs and give assurance that they pose no threat to the public now and in the future. view

I have been to the Ministry to ask this Question but, you know, the Ministry of State for Defence is housed in a military complex where accessibility is difficult!

He is trying to explain these things, but he is displaying total ignorance because what I am talking about are bombs in that place. There are two gentlemen who wake up and sit on top of that place during the day. But, October 8, 2008 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 2533 during the night, they sneak to somewhere underground! We do not know what they are doing! When we do our research, we are told that there are bombs that cannot be disposed! Then I wonder, with modern technology, how come we cannot dispose those ... view
• 8 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am satisfied with the assurance the Assistant Minister has given me to see him in his office. If he asks me to go and see him and then, like another Minister did, tell me to see his Personal Assistant, then I can assure you that I will never go even near the entrance of that office. view
• 7 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, my name is Mr. Maina Kamau the Member for Kandara. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Motion. I would like to ask why Members do not want to go and visit their constituents. I am sure that amongst all the Members in this House, no one managed to garner 100 per cent votes in his or her constituency. Most of us garnered 30 per cent to 40 per cent. This is the best time that one should go home and talk to the 60 per cent who were left out, so that you ... view
• 31 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to find out from the Minister the criteria used to determine which micro-finance institution is chosen through which to channel the money. view
