• 10 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. A Member who shows total disrespect to the House ought to be named, and I propose that he be named. view
• 10 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is the Minister in order to treat this as an opportunity to issue a Ministerial Statement instead of just giving the business of the House? view
• 10 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise in opposition to the amendment If we listened properly to the Mover of the Motion, firstly, we must agree that all the four ladies are qualified, but in order of merit, we know how each one of them ranks.

• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the drug menace is real. The people of Mombasa and Kenya are crying for help. It is obvious to everybody else except the police. Could the Assistant Minister tell us what he is doing about the police reforms and removing the officers at the Coast - majority of whom have been compromised by the drug cartels - to ensure that the drug menace as well as other crimes are completely brought under control? It is only yesterday that I brought to the attention of this House an incident where a lady and a man were assaulted ... view
• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. You have heard the Assistant Minister say that the Anti-Narcotics Unit will investigate. Is he in order to mislead the House while he knows that the same unit and the police have never, to date, put anybody to task over the murder of Chemorei in connection with his work against the drug trade? view
• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the issue of payment of arrears under the KKV programme is a countrywide problem. It is not only in Bura. Has the Minister taken stock of the number of youths still unpaid countrywide? If he has not, when will he do that and table it in this House? How can he say he is waiting to pay by the end of this month when in the same programme, there has been double payment of salaries of top officers as revealed in this House recently? view
• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. What the Assistant Minister has said is true, but is he in order to avoid one responsibility that when the Clerk fails to transmit, it is the duty of the Minister, as the one in charge of the East African Co-operation to follow up with the Clerk and ensure that the Clerk’s duty to this Assembly is done? Is he in order? view
• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is good to hear that the Ministry has that exotic proposal of buying 47 air ambulances. Do they equally have a proposal to upgrade the medical facilities in each county so that there is no need of evacuating patients outside each county? view
• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: asked the Attorney-General:- (a) whether he is aware that the Government froze the assets of Zonal Holdings and Credit Investment Company Limited in 2001 after complaints by members of the public through Parliament that the said company had collected varying sums of money from them but failed to keep its promise; (b) whether he could tell the House who the owners/directors of the company are and what the findings of the investigations of the case were; and, (c) what the value of the frozen assets is and when the depositors will be paid their money. view
• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: I have no problem, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. I hope that this will not compromise another Question of mine which is also slated for tomorrow. So, if you could weigh that, then I would agree. view
