• 16 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: I wish to say that Executive should take the displeasure of Parliament seriously. We should not just say we are a country under the rule law. We must demonstrate respect for our laws. I hope that the Executive will take time to reflect and correct those issues. I also want to appeal to Ministers. Ministers of both sides of the Coalition Government: Look at your dockets. Look at what you have done wrong in Board appointments and correct them. Do not wait for Parliament to correct you.

• 16 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we, as Parliament, also should not play double speak. We must henceforth show seriousness as a reform institution. I take it that it is a new birth and together, we will move to ensure that the reform agenda is moved forward in this country. We do not have to be playing push and pull.

• 10 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, inhuman treatment of prisoners is a matter of concern to Kenyans. I have heard the Vice-President and Minister for Home Affairs say that they deal with any case of ill treatment of prisoners. Could he tell the House what action he took in the incident that occurred at Kamiti Prison early this year where 300 prisoners were paraded naked, beaten and was captured on amateur video? Have the police investigated or what action has been taken? We want to be sure that the Government is upholding human rights of prisoners and remandees. view
• 10 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, with respect, I think the Vice-President and Minister for Home Affairs is avoiding to answer this Question. Action does not mean him, as a Minister, getting satisfied with the tapes. One would expect he would say the police are investigating the matter. Internally also, that disciplinary action is being taken. Three hundred men paraded naked is a violation of human rights. Being kicked around by warders--- We expect him to tell us that he found out who was on duty and what action he took. Is he in order to refuse to answer the question? view
