• 29 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we would have no problem as a House that the Assistant Minister addresses the issue comprehensively on Tuesday next week, but only on the assurance that KBC workers would not go on strike. By that I mean KBC Radio, Television and every other aspect of KBC should be up and running until Tuesday when he delivers the Statement. So, if he can give this House and Kenyans an assurance that KBC will not be interrupted because of the strike, then the House might consider giving an indulgence. view
• 29 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am just lost because according to the records we have in this House there is no constituency known as Mwingi central. Such a constituency has never been there. view

• 29 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: “subject to the deletion of the words ‘3 the Western border of Ijara Constituency shall be the Tana River appearing on the third column of the schedule on page 16 of the Report.” view
• 29 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir,in the report it was shown that Ijara’s boundary should be shifted from the three mile strip that is colonially set for the boundaries between the former Coast Province and North Eastern. I understand the issues that might have arisen to have such a recommendation put; the fears of hon. Noor that there are problems even with watering points and the like. I have also convinced her that even for us who are in Tana River District, and who have the river within our borders, we still have problems with watering points. It is because of the agrarian ... view
• 29 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, if I may clarify, there is a recommendation in the report of the Committee that the border between Tana River County and Garissa County at the point where we border with Ijara be moved from the original colonial border to the river. As it stands now, the border between Tana River and Garissa is a three mile strip across the river to the west. But there is a recommendation in the report requesting that the borders be shifted to the river. The gist of my amendment is to just take back the borders to where they were ... view

• 29 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as you have said, for hon. Members who do not come from these regions, it is very important for them to get the gist of the historical background for them to make an informed decision. I would even accept even the letters which have been tabled by hon. Sophia Noor on the face value. However, we have to state that even Tana River District as a county was originally administered from North Eastern. This is not a matter that we are also contesting. However, when provinces were demarcated, Tana River District was not part of North Eastern ... view
• 28 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. With all due respect to your ruling, I think there is an issue raised by hon. Orengo which is really pertinent. He said whatever we will have as record on the HANSARD - and I think that is the direction you give - should clearly be stated that what the Chairman is doing is only tabling a corrigenda to a report and not moving any Motion. view
