6 Aug 2008 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first of all, I want to thank the Minister for promising the House that she will take the necessary action required. But, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is the existence of the Northern Water Board and, if you look at the Constitution as it is now, all those areas come under the Northern Water Board. Could the Minister consider to allow the Northern Water Board to do the drilling and equipping of boreholes, instead of relying on organisations which are in Nairobi, and which have no idea of what is happening in northern Kenya?

6 Aug 2008 in National Assembly:
Thank you very much, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to also support this very important Bill. The matter of constitutional review is not new in this country. It is something which we should have disposed of a long time ago. In fact, I thought we had a unique opportunity immediately after the crisis that we had in this country, particularly when we had the Serena team in place. I must, however, confess that they did an excellent job. Constitution making always becomes easier in times of crisis than in times of stability and good times. Therefore, ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have a procedural problem!

5 Aug 2008 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. You will realise that hon. Shabesh has submitted a document before the House. The procedure is that the Chair determines whether that document is authentic or not. It is not for the Minister to tell us whether it is authentic or not. So, we need you to rule on this matter.

5 Aug 2008 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I actually sought a Ministerial Statement on this matter three months ago. I am glad the matter has come back in form of a Question. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, according to the Terms of Reference of this Committee, which was constituted three months before the General Elections - you can understand why the Committee was constituted three months before the General Elections - the Committee shall provide an interim Report one month after it is constituted. It is now nearly eight months. Could the Minister confirm that the interim Report which is envisaged in the Terms ...

I had asked a legitimate question which the Minister has conveniently refused to answer. According to the Terms of Reference that appointed this Committee, one month after the appointment, an interim Report shall be given to the Minister himself. He has that already in his custody. Could the Minister table that interim Report?

asked the Minister of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security:- (a) whether he is aware that Chief Inspector Adan Hassan Abikar (P/No.1979171982) of the Kenya Police went missing while on official duties in Liberia in August, 2006; (b) whether he could explain the circumstances under which the officer disappeared as well as the efforts made to establish his whereabouts; and, (c) whether the Government could undertake to ensure that his salary, which was stopped in 2006, is reinstated and that his family, which is still living in a Government house, is not evicted until his whereabouts are established. 2266 ...

31 Jul 2008 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, first of all, it is not true that the Question was answered to the satisfaction of the House. Indeed, when the Assistant Minister came to answer this Question, he was not able to satisfy the House and the Chair ruled that he should go back and come with a satisfactory answer. But be that as it may, we are very concerned about the fate of our officers who go out of this country to perform patriotic duties. That particular police officer, like many others, had given up his life to go out of this country in order ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, as you realise the hon. Assistant Minister has not confirmed whether Mr. Bikari is dead or alive. That is the first point that we wanted to know.
