• 31 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was coming to that, Mr. Wamalwa. The Resolution of the AU on the ICC is borne out of the strength and authority of the Constitutive Act which was not only ratified by the Government of the Republic of Kenya, but was adopted by this Parliament before ratification by the Government of the Republic of Kenya and, under which, we are obligated to obey the decisions of the organs of the AU. In terms of the domestication of the Rome Statute, we domesticated it as part of our laws and we must, like I said in my ... view
• 31 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, yes, we also signed the treaty of the Constitutive Act of the AU, which is very critical to the survival of this country. Mrs. Shebesh asked whether the decisions were unanimous or not. The decisions of the AU were made without any dissention. So, they are taken to be unanimous and I always thank her and her colleagues from this Parliament who always join us. You have seen that and you know what the AU has said about this issue. Mr. C. Kilonzo has asked me a very weighty issue about Patrice Lumumba and all our brothers ... view
• 31 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the AU has no power to freeze the arrest warrant, but it has authority to direct its member states, as it has done, to disregard it in the wider interests of peace, security, stability, reconciliation and justice. view
• 25 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to support this Motion. view

• 25 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, when you look at the amount of money given to the Ministry of Agriculture, it is obviously inadequate. The principal envelope maybe small, but I think the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance could have done better. I say so, because there is a lot that the Ministry of Agriculture can do and must do in this country. Up until the early 1990s when the Ministry of Agriculture became a casualty after Kenya fell into the trap of the World Bank engineered reforms called Structural Adjustment Programmes (SAPs), agriculture used to do very well. ... view
• 11 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to move that Mr. Speaker do now leave the Chair. view
• 11 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is my pleasant pleasure, duty and honour to present to this House the Recurrent and Development Expenditure and Estimates of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for the year 2010/11. I present this budget against the backdrop of the new constitutional dispensation, which opens vast opportunities for Kenya’s regional and international reach. view
• 11 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am happy that under the Fourth Schedule of the new Constitution, the portfolios of foreign affairs, foreign policy and international trade now falls under the Ministry’s mandate. This is a clear recognition of these driving plans in the conduct of foreign relations and will allow for more effective strategies for promoting our commerce and trade and international affairs. We are also now better placed to act as the interface between Kenya and the expanded diasporas that will be brought about by the introduction of dual citizenship in the new Constitution. view
