• 22 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Higher Education, Science and Technology:- (a) if he could provide details of all scholarships from all countries that Kenya received in the last five years; and (b) if he could also provide names of the students who were awarded the scholarships. view
• 22 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, while appreciating the answer given by the Minister, I am, however, perturbed by the sequence of the scholarships. There is no consistence in the scholarships. My worry is that we have been losing scholarships, maybe, due to negligence or maybe they are given to family members and friends. You find that in the six years, there is no consistency except for China which has been giving its scholarships and they have been utilized properly. I know for sure that a country like Ukraine has been giving us 20 partial scholarships per year. It is only last ... view
• 22 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. In some countries where partial scholarships are given, you know very well that some of the students cannot afford to cater for their accommodation and food. Recently, I was in Russia and a number of students who got partial scholarships told us that there is money at the Embassy but the money has not been released. When we discussed this with the Ambassador in Moscow he told us that the money was destined to be returned to Nairobi because the Ministry had requested that the money should not be disbursed to the students.

• 9 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, could the Assistant Minister state whether North Eastern is part of these areas that are earmarked for wind power tapping? view
• 19 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister for Foreign Affairs said here that the Ministry has done a protest letter to the USA Embassy. I think it will be in order if he tables the documents in the House for reference by the Members of Parliament. view
• 7 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish to thank the Assistant Minister for clarifying the issue on irrigation along Dawa River in Mandera County. I wish to ask the Assistant Minister to confirm that the money, which was allocated for that purpose, which is Kshs400 million, shall be ring-fenced and not returned to the Treasury. The project has been delayed. I am happy you have already advertised for the tender to do a comprehensive design. So, could you confirm to this House that the money will not be returned to the Treasury? view
• 29 May 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, you heard the Minister say that some of these markets are incomplete; some have been done halfway while others have been abandoned. I can confirm to the House that the market for Mandera East has been done without any problem using Kshs10 million. So what is the reason that these other markets have stalled and yet Mandera is the furthest from Nairobi? view
• 24 May 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister says Kshs300 million was allocated for starting an irrigation scheme. This is a very good scheme that will help alleviate poverty in that region. We are now talking about the issue of borehole and provision of water to the local people, how will he be able to source water for this ambitious irrigation programme? view
• 24 May 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is the Assistant Minister in order to mislead the House by saying that the projects earmarked for Mandera worth Kshs400 million and in Garissa worth Kshs300 million have no issues? He says the communities have no issues with the project. If there is a problem in Wajir, why has the Mandera and Garissa projects not commenced? view
