• 4 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: At this particular time, we are asking for help simply because the number of people who have suffered burns is overwhelming and we cannot cope with the amount of work. Otherwise, the Director, Kenyatta National Hospital, was ready to set up a team of doctors to assess the children during the coming school holidays and make sure that they can now move on to the second phase. view
• 4 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: With regard to whether these children are of a lesser god, that is not true. They are children like any other in this country. That is why the Government has spent over Kshs1.8 million taking care of these Kenyan children and making sure that they are fine. As to the second phase, I wish we could put our heads together. If the well-wishers have decided to raise funds to take the children to the USA, people are welcome to help in this particular initiative. view
• 4 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the children were treated at the AIC Kijabe Mission Hospital. The Government paid an initial amount of Kshs800,000, followed by another Kshs1.06 million. The payments were as follows: Mary Wandia spent Kshs406,730; Anthony Njoroge Mbuthia, Kshs530,545; Mary Wahito Kariuki, Kshs475,610; and Mary Wanjiru Njenga, Kshs450,390. view
• 4 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, to make sure that the healing process was faster, the Ministry of State for Special Programmes also paid rent for their parents, so that they could be near their children. They were able to see the children in hospital through our intervention. They are in school. The Faulu Kenya paid one month's school fees last term. This term, we are going to continue paying the school fees. We are just waiting for the invoice from the academy where they were taken. view
• 4 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I said earlier, we were already involved in the treatment of these children. In the good spirit of Kenyans, people have joined in to assist in treating these children. That is welcome. However, we knew that we were going to move to the second phase of treating these children. Counselling of the children has been going on. So much more has been done although not captured by cameras and newspapers. view

• 4 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we are only aware of the people who suffered during the Kiambaa Church incident. Those are the only ones we are aware of. There are other people who were undergoing treatment as they were being taken to hospital. The Government incurred a lot of expenditure to make sure that people are as healthy as possible. If there is any other case that we have not taken care of, we would like it to be brought to our attention, so that we can deal with it. view
• 4 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there have been various investigations going on, not only for that particular one, but also in all the cases where people have suffered the same fate. Some cases have been filed and some of them are going on. Therefore, I know that the Government is busy investigating these issues. view
• 21 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: Ahsante sana, Bw. Naibu Spika wa Muda, kwa kunipa fursa hii kuzungumzia juu ya swala hili ambalo ni la muhimu kwa Wakenya wote. view
• 21 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: Bw. Naibu Spika wa Muda, ni kweli kwamba waalimu wanahitaji kuongezewa mishahara. Lakini kabla ya kuongezewa mishahara, lazima tuulizane: "Ni vipi wataongezewa hiyo mishahara?" Kweli kabisa ingewezekana, walimu wangelipwa mara moja kama Bajeti yetu ya mwaka huu ingeweza kuturuhusu. Lakini ukweli ni kwamba tusikae hapa Bungeni tukitaka kuwapaka walimu mafuta kwa mgongo wa chupa. view
