4 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am not in a position to provide details of names, sex and the application serial numbers of people vetted for issuance of national identity cards in Nanighi Location between 26th and 29th April, 2010 as the said application forms were returned to that station and the chief between 26th and 29th April, 2010 for fresh vetting. The purported vetting exercise conducted earlier had irregularly been conducted by an improperly constituted committee. (b) I am not aware that the said application forms are lying at the District Registrarâs office in Hola. ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, just to clarify what happened on 26th and 29th of April. The vetting that took place between those days raised a lot of complaints from both the local leaders and members of the public. These complaints reached the headquarters of registration. The local leaders and members of the public claimed that some refugees had been registered during the vetting exercise of between 26th and 29th April, 2010. An investigation team was dispatched from the National Registration Bureau, Nairobi, to Hola to investigate the complaints. The teamâs findings were that the dates appearing on the applications and ...

That is definitely a typographical error. The dates on which the applications were made were between 26th and 29th, but they were returned much later. I am not quite sure of the date when they were returned. I do not have that in the answer here. I can bring it---

4 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is definitely a typographical error; we are saying that vetting of people in this location for issuance of national identity cards was done between 26th and 29th. In fact, that is the question that my brother asked. What we have said is that the forms were returned to the chief. The mistake is that we said they were returned between 26th and 29th. That is wrong. Definitely it was much later after the complaints were received. If it is important, I can come back and give him the dates.

4 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if you look at the trend, the delay is not inordinate because there was a compliant after registration coming from the same representatives of the people. I can tell you that, that area has a large influx of refugees.

4 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, although we are the representatives of people in our constituencies, there are many other leaders in those areas including councilors, church leaders, mosque leaders, women leaders, men leaders and youth leaders. So, there are leaders all over the place! We are not the monopolists of leadership in those areas. But complaints were made and I have said that we returned the forms and we have given the same people an opportunity. If they are genuinely Kenyans - and we told them we want to check whether they are really Kenyan or refugees - they should come ...

4 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is so and thank you for the protection! The only thing that I have said and I will confirm is the following: I do not see why Dr. Nuh is agitated or upset because we had complaints which we have dealt with by saying: âReturn these forms and make sure that these same people, if they are genuine Kenyans, come back for another evaluation.â We do it, not because we like it. It is a very expensive exercise. But we do it because there are some people who would pass as Kenyans but are not. ...

4 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will give an undertaking but, first, I will invite my friend to come, we work on a specific date which is suitable for him. Whether it is four days, we will give him that at a specific time. Please, ask them in advance to come and be vetted and registered. That is all we are asking for! We want to register all Kenyans.

4 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first and foremost, I did not come with the dates because this exercise should have been done on 1st and 2nd which have now past. I have only known now that they did not actually come back. But to stand here and say that registration will be on 4th and yet we have to do the logistics---
