Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, three weeks ago, I sought a Ministerial Statement from the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance regarding some accounts of the Kenya Government that had ostensibly been frozen through a court order in London.

2 Dec 2009 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I agree absolutely and I am saying that even the people who are living there--- If you have been to Garissa, you will first cross River Tana and then you go to Garissa Town. Even those other Kenyans who are not necessarily from North Eastern Province who live in that part essentially should be serviced from North Eastern Province like the rest of north eastern residents.
