• 18 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: So, I wish to support this Motion and hope that all of us do so. view
• 4 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. If the hon. Member could mention names of people outside this House, why is he afraid to mention the hon. Member involved? view
• 22 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, on the same question of sub-district hospitals, in my constituency, Wajir North, there are two sub-district hospitals and none of them has staff, an ambulance or a maternity wing. Could the Assistant Minister kindly assure me that these facilities will be running to full capacity? There is no use of having sub-district hospitals when all those facilities are not there. view
• 21 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, could the Assistant Minister inform the House what constitutes a sub-district hospital because in my constituency, the hospital that has been given this status does not even have a single nurse? view
• 30 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to contribute to this Motion on the development of the livestock policy. I will be very brief because most of the issues have been tackled. I want to urge the Ministry to start cross-breeding of animals. This will raise the quality of the indigenous animals I would also want to talk about the Kenya Meat Commission (KMC). The KMC has not been doing a good job. Most of the animals taken to the market are exotic. Most of the animals that they are buying right now come from the white farmers, and ... view
• 15 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we know that the nurses that are being posted to these dispensaries come from other areas and they do not actually want to work there. You had better train the local people because we are even finding out that the admissions to the Medical Training Colleges (MTCs) are skewed towards some direction. Train the locals and give them these chances, so that they can accept to work in those areas. The Ministry is posting people there who go to other places after six months or one year. view
• 6 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Minister is talking of patrols in North Horr Constituency. In that area, police stations are about 300 to 400 kilometres apart. Having known that area very well, security partrols cannot do anything. So, could the Minister guarantee to us that those police posts will be re-opened after security personnel have graduated? view
• 6 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Water and Irrigation:- (a) whether she is aware that National Water Conservation and Pipeline Corporation planned activities for the financial year 2006/2007, that is, borehole 2398 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES August 6, 2008 drilling in Wajir, Samburu, Ijara, Moyale, Isiolo and Garissa districts are yet to begin; (b) whether she is further aware that contracts to do the drilling work are done without supervision and that recommended depths are not reached thereby declaring high water potential areas dry; and, (c) what urgent and specific measures she is taking to rectify the situation considering that over Kshs46 million for ... view
• 6 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is not true that Kshs155 million was used. That is because I can confirm with the data I have that over 43 boreholes, that were to be drilled by the NWCPC, have not been done. I can give an example in Wajir District, where the following boreholes have not been drilled:- 1. Delmanyale 2. Shimbir Bul 3. Tarbaj 4. Ingrir, which is in my constituency 5. Aden Awale 6. Barmish and 7. Dolkuta South It is only in that district that Kshs2 million was assigned to NWCPC and the work has not began. So, could ... view
• 6 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It is good that the Minister has acknowledged that the National Water Conservation and Pipeline Corporation has no capacity to deliver. At the moment, we are aware in a place called El Had, there is a rig that has been standing there for the last eight months. It has had no fuel or allowances advanced to do the job. At the moment the type of rigs the Ministry is using are outdated. Could she give us some modern rigs that can do the work very fast because that way, this money will not "rot" ... view
• 16 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Assistant Minister knows that this is an arid area problem. We are talking about time frame. Ewaso Nyiro Development Authority has been wasting a lot of time in making some consultations on the ground. It has taken three years. We have not seen the Authority in my constituency, Wajir North, yet our priorities are written down. Kindly, we request you to tell us what you will do about this? There are no visitors who are coming to the ground to check on the priorities of the community. The Ewaso Nyiro Development Authority has ... view
