• 15 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, with regard to what hon. Gitau asked, 15 days is not too long for investigations of such a homicide. As I said, investigations are ongoing. Our embassy is involved and we will be updated as the investigations go on. Regarding the registration of Kenyans outside the country, you will bear me witness that we have said here many times before that Kenyans are advised when they go out of the country, to record with my Ministry which has a desk, if they wish. When they go to countries where we have missions, the first point of call, ... view
• 15 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was not even giving an opinion. I was factual. As to what Ms. Ndung'u said, again, in a foreign jurisdiction, it is difficult for our Mission, or Government, to guarantee the security and safety of people who live there. The best we can do is to liaise with the countries where we have good relations, so that the safety of our people is guaranteed, as we also guarantee the security of other nationals who live here. Mr. Speaker, Sir, on what Mr. Ndolo asked, whenever Kenyans die outside the country, it is normally up to their ... view
• 14 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have not issued any advisory. We will give a Statement by Tuesday, next week. view
• 14 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Thursday, this week? view
• 14 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: No, it would be too soon, Mr. Speaker, Sir. We need to contact our mission in the USA. We also need to contact many other agencies to get correct information. We do not just want to give a Statement for the sake of it. We want to bring a factual Statement. view
• 14 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I will try. If we manage, I will bring the Statement on Thursday. But if we do not, I beg the House to understand. view
• 14 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me an opportunity to say a few words in support of this Vote. The kind of work that the Ministry of Energy is doing around the country, especially in the field of rural electrification, is highly commendable. If you travel around, there is not a single constituency - I believe - where there is no Rural Electrification Programme (REP) of some type going on. This is because the Government is focused on a realisation that we have to supply electricity to rural areas, markets, emerging towns and schools, so that they can benefit ... view
• 14 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: There is so much noise! view
• 14 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, with the increased demand for electricity from our national grid, I think we need to increase the supply. I was saying that we need to hasten the connection between Eastern Africa and Southern Africa Power Pool, which has the capacity to give us more power. We also need the East African Masterplan on Power to work hand in hand with the SADC Power Masterplan that is planning to develop the massive hydro-capacity on the River Congo, so that Kenya can, in future, if we are to achieve our Vision 2030, access readily available, clean and cheap source ... view
• 1 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this Motion. The death penalty is a very emotive subject. If you may recall, a Motion like this one was brought to this House in 1995 by hon. Murungi, and we had some religious-leaning Members here who nearly physically roughed him up in opposing the Motion. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I stand to oppose this Motion because in my view, it is not founded on any reason. The foundation of the death penalty, first, is in the Constitution. This is in Section 71 of the Constitution. ... view
