18 Nov 2009 in National Assembly:
I want the Minister to tell us the steps his Ministry will take in order to clear the backlog of many Kenyans who have not been registered and who are now frustrated. Is the Ministerâs Statement an admission of failure by the Government to identify who is a citizen and who is not?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Prime Minister referred to a video clip that was shown yesterday by the Committee of Experts on Constitutional Review.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister says that this process was started in 2006. Between 2006 and now, is nearly three years. How long does he require to process this, so that Kenya can be part of this important organ? What kind of consultation can take three years for the Ministry to complete?

18 Nov 2009 in National Assembly:
Thank you very much, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this very important Bill. When the Government brought a similar Bill to this House a few months ago, I voted against it. However, today I stand to support this one.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has answered this Question in a manner that is not quite satisfying. He is suggesting that the soil there is sandy. This means that it is dangerous for aircraft to land there. Habaswein Town has grown over time and the airstrip is becoming the centre of this town. Has the Ministry officially communicated to the council and advised the local officials on the ground about the possibility of shifting this airstrip from where it is to another site?
