  • 11 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I beg to support. view
  • 7 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I had an answer for the Question, but when the hon. Member saw me, he thought that this Question should be directed to the Minister in charge of Internal Security. view
  • 7 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: The hon. Member has seen me and indicated that he intended this Question to be filed to the Ministry of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security. view
  • 7 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, he has also indicated that he prefers his line of interrogation to be targeted at the Ministry of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security. If that is his wish, I have no problem. However, let me also mention that this Question may very well offend Standing Order No.79 in some aspects. It also has some serious security implications on this country and our relationship with Somalia. So, as the Chair directs where you want it to go, I think you should take that into account because we are about to engage in discussions on a ... view
  • 7 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: Two weeks, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
  • 6 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank Eng. Gumbo for bringing this Motion. If you may recall, there is a young man called Peter Rono who won a gold medal in Seoul. When he was asked to comment, he said that it is easier to win a gold medal in the Olympics than to qualify in Kenya to go to the Olympics. That explains the level of talent we have in this country and the determination in our youth. I want to salute our athletes who have done very well in Korea. Watching television and seeing our young ... view
  • 6 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, thirdly, if you want to see the benefits of these great athletes, go to Eldoret Town today and see the booming economy coming out of the athletics success of that region. It is very important that the Government honours these athletes and puts more emphasis and money in sports; whether it is football, athletics or hockey. We regret the boxing event where Kenya used only to be second to Cuba among Third World boxers. Today, we do not talk much about boxing. I think we need to go back to identifying talents early, so that ... view
  • 6 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, once again, I salute those great Kenyans who did us so proud in Korea. view
  • 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I want to persuade Members to see the sense in Dr. Nuh’s amendment. “Holds a post-secondary school qualification recognized in Kenya” means that you have a secondary school certificate and then post-secondary school certificate recognized in Kenya. If you have a secondary school certificate, it is not “post”. If that is all you have, then you are locked out! The danger is that this kind of clause will hurt, particularly so many Kenyan women in marginal areas. We have seen it here. There is no guarantee that the more educated you are, the better politician ... view
  • 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I wish to oppose the amendment. The House we are going to have is a House of representatives and not an alumni of universities. We are not creating an elitist club. We have had great men and women in this country without degrees who have made major contributions to the political development of this country, namely, Tom Mboya, Grace Akinyi and many others. I want to urge Members that we should look beyond ourselves. I have a degree and a post degree qualification, but there are many people out there who can even be better ... view
