• 2 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this “thing” is not about local or foreign. This is about a contractor who has the capacity to deliver. The French company we are talking about has the capacity to deliver as much as he has been here too long and we have extended his contract for too long and people are just fed up. So, we will enter into a new contractual arrangement and we have already advertized. If there is a Kenyan who has the capacity to supply identity cards, he or she can come to my office and buy the tender document. view
• 2 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we are not Southern Sudan. The identity card that we have is a very secure document. In fact--- view
• 2 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the identity card that we have is more secure than your passport! Even the second generation of identity cards we are migrating from is more secure than your passport. I produce both documents and I know that. So, the Kenyan identity card is one of the most superior identity cards in the world, because Kenya started registration and has been registering her people when nobody else was registering in the world. So, we are very advanced. On the issuance of identity cards, we are a first world. We do not compare with Southern Sudan. view
• 2 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the hon. Member need to understand that this is not a piece of paper. He will have to understand that the science behind producing the national identity card or ID, is very complex. In fact, even the countries he is talking about do not know about it.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is not about conflict of any interest. We have advertised for the production of the third generation ... view
• 2 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, of course, it is not the same procedure. In fact, issuing of birth certificates is much easier. It is actually a piece of paper. view
• 2 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: It is actually a special piece of paper. But for the ID, it is a much complex thing. view
• 2 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Member for Yatta. I can confirm from the Floor of the House today that that waiting document is actually a legal and usable document for the purposes of identifying the person who is carrying it. Therefore, we will use that waiting card as an identity card until the person gets the identity card because it is their fault that they do not have it. view
• 2 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if the hon. Member listened to me, there is nothing the Committee will discuss because I have already said that for the purposes of getting jobs and identify yourself, the waiting card will for all practical purposes be the ID. view
• 23 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. view
• 23 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Question as I have it on the Order Paper and as I have it, although asked by the Member for Isiolo South, it was about Garba-Tulla District. I do not know where that mix-up came from. I do not know where the difference came from because I am not sure how the districts have been created now. But the answer I have is for Garba-Tulla District.
