  • 16 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to support this Bill and thank the Minister for bringing it. In supporting, I want to give a case of a woman who had a burden she was carrying, she was walking and then she was given a ride. Even when she was given a lift in a car she continued to carry the burden she had on her head and the baby she had on her back. I am saying this in respect to devolution that as a country we have a totally new system but many of us are still operating as ... view
  • 16 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: It sounds like sub-chief. We should get away from those funny mentalities. Under Clause 71 we need to tie this with the issue of resources. The national government shall give certain payments under certain circumstances. I would wish to move an amendment that the national government shall take care of all recurrent expenditure failure of which we shall have to put under the Public Finances Bill the capping from 15 per cent that is provided constitutionally to 40 per cent. Otherwise, we will be making nonsense of devolution. I am saying this because if you actually look at all the ... view

  • 15 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, could the Minister indicate what policy the Government has of ensuring that youth are employed if we are still retaining people who have served their time, and have served their country well and should now be serving the country by giving us advice while resting at home instead of occupying the positions that the youth should be taking? view
  • 15 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I will try to be brief. I want to indicate that I have worked for very many years on the issue of inequalities, especially on equalising opportunities for all. One of the reasons as to why people fight is inequality. I want to say very clearly that I am one of the people who fought very hard for some of the provisions that are very strong in relation to equalising opportunities. Unfortunately, the way we are moving about it is that we have not learnt a lesson as a country and we are ... view

  • 21 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have been hearing the Minister continuously misleading the House that there is no law that allows him to give preference to local communities in simple jobs when the National Cohesion and Integration Act does exactly that. That is why it was set up so that we provide jobs across the board to bring cohesion amongst communities so that people do not fight each other. Is he in order? view
