• 7 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, procedurally, you have not proposed the Question. view
• 7 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to second the Motion. It is routine that we do always adjourn so that we can give hon. Members time to go and be with their constituents and attend to the constituents issues particularly matters pertaining CDF and project management. More importantly, this is also an opportunity for the House Committees; watchdog and other Committees of the House to have ample time to carry out their work of oversight, scrutiny of Government expenditure so that by the time we reopen, they would have done quite a bit of work. Mr. ... view
• 30 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I can deal with it now. view
• 30 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Three minutes, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 30 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in one of my briefs, I have come across details of students who got stranded because their passports were not renewed in good time. This was because of the problems that we had in December and January. When this particular student's passport expired, he took it to the mission in Cairo and it was sent to Nairobi but was not renewed in good time. Because of previous experiences where students who had sent their passports for renewal had been arrested by Egyptian police and locked up, he feared and went to the Mission. Having gone to the ... view
• 30 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: He has since left the Embassy. I want to clarify that he was not "squatting" in the compound. He was housed by the Ambassador. His wife and son were housed by one of my officers at the Mission. They are now back in their house. view
• 30 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to assure the Member that this student has not only got his passport but was also given money by the Embassy to secure his comfort. He has his passport. His wife, his son and himself are in their residence. If there is any contrary information, I can assure the House that my facts are right. I cannot vouch for the other facts. view
• 30 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to contribute in support of this Motion. Energy, in all its forms is very critical for the growth of any economy. It is even more critical for the growth of our economy given our ambitious programmes to achieve a new status by 2030. Starting with oil, we know that oil prices, the world over, have skyrocketed. We get all sorts of excuses why oil prices have shifted in two years from about US$50 to about US$130 to US$150 a barrel. As a result, the prices of literally every aspect of ... view
• 30 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this country, like many countries in the tropics, has enormous sun energy, which can be converted into solar energy. I would want to urge the Ministry to invest a little more money into providing solar panels to, at least, all secondary schools in the country if we have to catch up with the teaching of ICT in these schools. If we are to wait for all secondary schools to be connected to the national grid, then we are talking of arresting and retarding the growth of ICT development in rural areas, which carry the majority ... view
• 10 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity given to me to contribute to this Motion. I am sure - I came in late - that everybody who has spoken has supported this Motion. I am sure that everybody has mentioned the importance of the youth, and what we need to do in this country for the youth. It is gratifying that we have a Ministry dedicated to the youth of this country. Because the youth of this country are vulnerable and delicate, they have been used and abused with abundance by politicians. When politicians want to settle ... view
