• 31 May 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I kept quiet when hon. Sonko spoke about this for obvious reasons. I want to say--- view
• 31 May 2011 in National Assembly: Hon. Mbuvi, Mr. Speaker, Sir! Actually, I forgot his names! view
• 31 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I apologise for calling hon. Mbuvi, “hon. Sonko”. I am sorry because I do not know his name, but I am glad to know it today. view
• 31 May 2011 in National Assembly: However, I want to ask: Is the hon. Assistant Minister in order to trivialize a very serious issue? The same attitude that I am seeing other hon. Members portraying is what the Assistant Minister is portraying. Only a few weeks ago, we buried a woman as a consequence of domestic violence. Is he in order to tell us that? These are not personal issues; these are criminal acts. If a woman kills her husband or vice-versa, it will be a criminal act as per the Penal Code; it is outlawed in the Constitution! Are you in order to be trivializing ... view
• 31 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am reminded that there was a case of Lorena Bobbit who “bobbited” the husband with very serious consequences.

This House passed a Motion urging the Government of Kenya to refer this matter to the UN Security Council as a threat to international peace and security.

• 31 May 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Chairman, Sir. Just for clarity, we need to know what is being amended, because I can see that hon. Kioni is amending Clause 9(2)(c) but you are talking about Clause 9(1). view
• 31 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Chairman, Sir, could I, please, contribute? view
• 31 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Chairman, Sir, I have listened very carefully to Mr. Baiya and I am not convinced. The reason I am not convinced is, first, that the Bill does not actually say that we are making the position of the secretary a constitutional office but for clarity, it is important to provide grounds upon which you can remove a secretary. If the grounds are similar, that is okay because it will avoid confusion and also avoid creating friction within the Commission when people are dismissed at somebody’s whims.
