• 11 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Speaker, Sir. I just want my friend, hon. Wamalwa to go to the right section of the report. He is misleading Kenyans that we have allocated money to buy two aircraft for the police, which we have not. He has also said that we have allocated Kshs15 billion for the modernization of the police vehicles, which we have not. He is looking at a report which states “key priority areas not funded”. I just wanted to correct him. view
• 14 May 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Deputy Speaker. Is it in order for the Member to mislead the House that there is no regional balance in the list of the 16 nominees?

Is there a nominee from the Rift Valley? Yes. Is there a nominee from the Coast? Yes. Therefore, there is regional balance. view

• 20 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, these are graduates who had a mean grade of C plain in their KCSE and who have subsequently been admitted in universities registered and operating in Kenya and thereafter they are not allowed to proceed with their professional studies. Could the Assitant Minister tell us what his Ministry is doing about these grade anomalies that students are admitted to diploma courses with a C plain and thereafter they are not able to teach because they cannot be registered by the TSC? view
• 20 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Prof. Olweny: Mr. Speaker, Sir, on this enrolment to these other colleges, they went to those colleges without meeting the requirements set by the Ministry so that we maintain the good quality of our teachers. There is the standard of education for our teachers. I want to inform the hon. Member that the qualifications that we need for our teachers to be trained for diploma certificates is that there must be a mean grade of C+ at the KCSE, a mean grade of C+ (plus) in each of the teaching subjects that the candidate is going to do the diploma ... view

Those are the rules as we have them today. Anybody who ... view
• 20 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the students who pursued diploma courses pursued them after the vacancies were advertised by those institutions of higher learning, whether it is Egerton University, Moi University and all the other universities that we have mentioned here. What action does he intend to take against the administrators and the leadership of such universities for having misled these young students that they could pursue those courses? Finally, like we have realized, they cannot pursue their teaching career. view
