• 22 Jul 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to support the Motion. view
• 25 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. One of the reports that concern this House is the one on Muslims which the hon. Member has alluded to. The Minister had given an undertaking, following instructions from the Chair, that this Report would be delivered to the President and thereafter submitted to the House. Is the Assistant Minister in order, therefore, to mislead the Chair and House? view
• 25 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Minister for Medical Services was expected to issue another Ministerial Statement that I had asked. Today is the day that the Chair had ruled that it be issued. I thought that he could go ahead and issue it. view
• 25 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The matter I raised is a matter of life and death. It involves a seven-year-old kid, who due to professional negligence on the part of the personnel in the Ministry is now facing a serious medical condition in Embu and the Chair, in its own wisdom understood and ruled that this matter be discussed today. view
• 25 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The next sitting of the House is in a month’s time. Anything can happen to this kid. All that I want is for the Minister to undertake to make sure that this kid is given urgent medical attention. Secondly, could he consider to waive all the medical charges that these poor parents have already incurred and also consider compensation? This is a seven year old child whose hand was tied by a nurse but she forgot to untie. So, the in process the blood system refused to work and his hand ... view
• 25 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to also support this important Motion. As we go on recess, it is very critical that we reflect on the challenges that we face. One of them is our desire to see a functional Government. The ruling that was made by the Speaker with regard to the Leader of Government Business, a matter which is essentially unresolved up to now, is, indeed, a matter of concern. We hope that during the few weeks that we will be in recess, the Government will reconcile itself and appoint the Leader of ... view
• 25 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: One of the challenges that we are facing in this country today is insecurity. We have cases of carjackings being on the increase. There have also been killings in the city. So, this aspect is of great importance to most of us. However, a matter that has gained currency over the last few days is the situation in Somalia. This situation disturbs all of us. This is because peace in Somalia, as we all know, is peace in this country. We have a continued flow of refugees and small arms into this country because of the situation in Somalia. Therefore, ... view
• 25 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the United Nations (UN) is the biggest culprit in the conflict in Somalia. There has been no desire or activity at all by the UN to resolve this conflict. This is not a Kenyan, East African, or the Inter-Governmental Authority on Development (IGAD) problem. In fact, it is a global problem. The UN has a global mandate, as much as it works in Chad, Rwanda, Burundi and Mozambique to restore peace in Somalia. I think Somalia requires intervention. As we all know, the United Nations (UN) office in Nairobi has failed to deliver the required humanitarian ... view
• 23 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Minister for Medical Services regarding circumstances that led to the predicament of a seven-year old Mohamed Abbas Aliow following a botched operation at the Moyale Hospital on 23rd May, 2009, as extensively covered by the local media. The hand of Master Mohamed was tied by a nurse to take a blood sample who forgot to untie the knot. His mother, Sadia, kept on noticing the band and assumed it was part of medication and did not bother to remove it. The boy’s hand is rotting and ... view
