  • 23 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I appreciate. I am just wondering whether within seven minutes, will we have time to interrogate or will we then reserve the interrogation for another time? view
  • 23 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, first for clarification, I wish to inform the Minister that it is actually 14 persons who died in total. I was there and we received the bodies. I saw, personally, 14 bodies. I would also like to inform the Minister that some of the information he has given is not correct. One of the pieces of information that is not correct is that you rescued people. There are five people who swam to the shore, one of whom was a pregnant woman. She managed to swim to the shore and died three hours after arriving because there ... view
  • 23 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. My question was very specific. He has given me very broad policy issues. The people in Suba use water. They do not use land. The people who use land have ambulances and they also have the police that help whenever there are emergencies. They also have the fire department whenever there are emergencies. But in the water, I am saying that, while you are thinking of those grand plans, there was an element of the boat capsizing because of over-loading. But lives were not lost because the boat capsized. It is because ... view
  • 23 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I did not want to say this, but this issue touches me personally. I lost my father in 1974 because there was no rescue boat between a distance like from here to the Door. To date, we still do not have a rescue boat and we still lose young people. When my father died, he was only about 33 years. Several years later, people are dying because of distances. The Suba people do not want to hear semantics. I do not want my children to live without a father the way I ... view
  • 23 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to thank hon. Wamalwa for bringing this good piece of legislation and as usual, he has not disappointed us. He is keeping us on our toes, especially on legislative reforms. I just want to say that I agree with the hon. Minister that the first number plate that should be given in that series is Millie 1 or if not Millie 1, make it a millo geza geza mrembo wa Suba. I do not know if it will be long enough to cover that long name. Otherwise, I support. It is an ... view
  • 18 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to support. In supporting I want to say that Mr. Midiwo’s sister has a right to fall in love. It actually helps in the development of the country because then we can have children. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in supporting this Motion I wish to say that as a country we need discipline in our political parties, especially because of the view
  • 18 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am in order and I will explain why I am in order. When I was speaking, the hon. Members were consulting loudly and so, they did not hear what I said. I have said that this House is very sensitive; we have followed the Constitution and we have ensured the one-third representation except--- Can we, for the first time, other than the Commission on Cohesion and Integration which has majority women, all the other commissions, the one- third is presumed that the tail end must be--- view
  • 18 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, can I be protected! view
  • 18 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am responding to a point of order. I shall not be intimidated with my one-third of the tier. view
  • 18 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to say - and I want to repeat - that if you actually see the record in this House, we have done well by providing one-third constitutionally. However, we must inculcate in ourselves that the tail end of one-third does not always mean women. So, I am pleading that this time round, when we are appointing the Commission on Revenue Allocation--- view
