• 23 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Higher Education, Science and Technology:- (a) how far the Ministry has gone with plans to establish a university in North Eastern Province; and, (b) what measures the Government has put in place to enable the people of North Eastern Province access university education. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I apologise for not asking the Question early enough. view
• 23 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank the Assistant Minister for the answer but you will realise that he has said that it was in 2006, almost four years ago, when the idea to establish a university in this province was conceived. Out of the 47 counties, it is only the three Counties of that province that have no access to a formal university institution which has a charter. Could the Assistant Minister tell us why they have defied the directive of the President? This is because in August this year, the President instructed the Ministry to establish a university and give ... view
• 23 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I just want the Assistant Minister to confirm that in two months time, as he has said in his answer, the Minister, himself and all of us who think about that place will go and celebrate with the people in that area the official opening of a university with a charter and not a constituent college? view
• 23 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. This is a very serious matter and the Minister wants to make it trivial. Is the Minister satisfied that 40 million Kenyans who are qualified, be they at the KPA or outside, had equal access and opportunity to apply for this position? There is a question of equal access to all Kenyans. view
• 23 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I thank you for giving me this opportunity to support this Motion. First of all, I would like to congratulate the hon. Members of this House who have ably represented us in the PAP. As we know, Kenya has been a fair example. I am sure that our hon. Members feel proud to represent this country. They received support from their colleagues in the PAP because they know that this country has come a long way. One of the topics of discussion by the PAP was Democracy and Rule of Law, and the fight against ... view
• 23 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am not aware of that. I will be very happy if a matter like that one comes up because, essentially, I will be speaking the way I am speaking now. I am only speaking about the possibility of countries going into violence when commissions come up with reports that have the potential to reverse the gains we have made, as the IIBRC was just about to do. If the intention was granted to gazette a list of constituencies which, perhaps, would have polarised the country, then we have every right to say that, because ... view
• 17 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: asked the Minister of State for Public Service:- (a) whether he could provide the list of all persons appointed to Parastatal Boards and their Chief Executives since the Coalition Government was formed; (b) whether he is satisfied that all eligible Kenyans have had equal access to the opportunities referred to in (a) above and that the appointments reflect our national diversity and have due regard to gender and marginalized groups in the country; and, (c) what the government is doing to stem apparent acts of nepotism being practiced by Government officers in making appointments. view
• 17 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, initially I had sent this Question to the Office of the Prime Minister, because as the co-ordinator of Government Business, I thought the Prime Minister was more competent than the Minister to offer an answer. However, considering the answer given by the Minister, I would like to request the Chair to give us some direction. First, the volume of this Report requires some scrutiny in order for us to interrogate the Minister. Secondly, the Minister has started by view
• 17 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I need time in order to interrogate the Minister. view
