• 28 Sep 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, on 21st July, 2010, I requested for a Ministerial Statement from the Minister in charge of internal security on the killing of a civilian in Kangemi, when the Administration Police (AP) and the police were trying to relocate the people from the market. Up to today, the Statement has not been given. view
• 28 Sep 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this may require your attention! I sought a Ministerial Statement on 21st July, 2010 from the Minister in charge of internal security on the killing, on 17th July, 2010, of a civilian while the police were trying to relocate the people from the market at Kangemi. To date, it has not been given and I am seeking your direction. This is an old Statement and there is no reason why the Minister should not be ordered to give it tomorrow afternoon. view

• 1 Sep 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this Motion. We have already approved this expenditure and all we are doing now is to actually give the official authority to withdraw these monies from the Consolidated Fund. We gave our reasons for supporting and caution where we needed to give caution. In line with the new Constitution, we want to see discipline in the area of spending. Year in, year out, the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) is always noting Permanent Secretaries or Ministries that have spend beyond what is approved by Parliament. We want to see the Treasury ... view
• 1 Sep 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is the Member in order to claim the Sheikh was heckled when he was only given indication of time to shorten and when the people at Uhuru Park were merely giving a feedback to leaders who were trying to deny them the new law? view
• 1 Sep 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is this Member in order to allege that I sanctioned the heckling at Uhuru Park? Anybody seated at Uhuru Park could see the crowd indicating time. Is he in order to continue claiming the Sheikh was heckled when all they did was to indicate time and when it was clear that those whom the crowd approved were those that were trying to deny the opportunity of the new law? Is it in order for the Member to continue with inaccuracies? view
• 1 Sep 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support the Motion. view
• 1 Sep 2010 in National Assembly: I will begin by commending the police for maintaining absolutely good security on the day the Constitution was promulgated. I also noticed two days later the Police Commissioner talking to senior police officers about the effects of the new Constitution. This is the way forward. We need everybody to respect the Constitution. view
• 1 Sep 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, about a day ago there was an attempted eviction by the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) in Ngong. I want to say that officers need to read our guiding principles, especially Article 10(c) on social justices. What it means is that if the Government requires any land, whether through compulsory acquisition or eviction of squatters, it has to make alternative arrangements, where these people will go. You do not just wake up in the morning and evict people; whether hawkers or squatters. We need senior Government officers internalising the Constitution and not violating it immediately we have ... view
