• 23 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is talk about the International Criminal Court (ICC). This is an important matter, particularly what we are going through now as a country. I think for stability to prevail and Kenya to be a viable State, the most important thing we should focus on is national reconciliation and healing. An hon. Member said: “Initially, you wanted the Hague, why are you people complaining?” Yes, at the time when we were saying “let us go to the Hague”, we did not have a new constitutional dispensation. In fact, I voted for “The Hague”, then, later, ... view
• 1 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to give notice of the following Motion:- THAT, this House adopts the Report of the Committee on Equal Opportunity on the distribution of water boreholes in the country for the last three years laid on the Table of the House on 1.3.2011. view
• 24 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank the Assistant Minister for the Statement. However, there is need to be factual to the House particularly when he is briefing the National Assembly. view
• 24 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: These fellows arrived at JKIA on 20th. It is false as the Assistant Minister claims in his Statement that they only stayed here for the requisite 24 hours. In fact, they stayed for four days. It is also not true that the next available flight was on 24th, because every day, there are two flights that go to Zambia. So, if they wanted to remove these fellows, they would have done so the following day. It is not also true that they were connecting to African Airlines, because there is no proof that they had a ticket and there was ... view
• 24 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, just after I raised this matter yesterday in this House, the Government rushed to deport them this morning. It had to take me to come to this House to force this Government to return these people back to where they came from. Besides, as we speak, though the Assistant Minister says that these individuals were deported this morning, the Zambian officials have rejected them and they are on their way back to Nairobi. The reason is because Kenya’s foreign policy has died. I was in this Ministry for eight years and I have sufficient experience. It has ... view
• 24 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: I would like the Assistant Minister to confirm what relationship they have with the Zambian Government as far as this matter is concerned and whether, in fact, they make it the business of the Zambian Government to keep them in Zambia or to take them to Mogadishu from Zambia. They should never use JKIA as a transit point for people who have been kidnapped or transiting from countries where those fellows who are going do not want to go. view
• 23 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Water and Irrigation:- (a) whether she is aware that the National Water Conservation and Pipeline Corporation has not paid M/s Ismaj Garage Transporters Kshs3,230,000 for works done at Dadh-Dere Water Pan in Fafi District on 20th June, 2008; and, (b) whether she could explain the delay in payment and state when the corporation will pay the contractor. view
• 23 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Spe4aker, Sir, you can see clearly how this Assistant Minister is working. He is a good friend of mine but apparently on this one, I think he has failed the test of leadership. He is saying that he is aware that M/s Ismaj Garage Transporters have not been paid for three years. He is also saying that Dadh-Dere Water Pan in Fafi District has been completed. If he is aware that the job was contracted and done, is it the responsibility of M/s Ismaj Gargage to wait for an audit which is an internal matter? Why does he ... view
• 23 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is quite clear from the confirmation the Assistant Minster has given that this job was done three years ago. These are small time contractors who have utilized all their resources on the project. The Assistant Minister has confirmed that the contractor has done his job. That pan is being utilized as we speak today by the people of that area. Now that he has confirmed that the pan is operational and the contractor has not been paid, we want one categorical statement to the effect that by the end of April, this contractor will be ... view
• 23 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is the Assistant Minister in order to mislead the House that he is not going to dismiss anybody when, in fact, he is preparing them for dismissal? The Question was: “Can you confirm whether, in fact, the people who have been recruited already qualified to be recruited in the first place?” We just need that confirmation. If they are preparing to dismiss them, then he should tell the country. view
