• 20 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Member was one of the best teachers in this country when he was teaching and he knows very well that we have bridging courses for such cases. We have. They are there. view
• 20 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we will have two things. One, we will liaise with the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology. We are informing all these institutions to go as per the rules. Secondly, I would request those graduates to do their bridging courses. They are very short and do not take much time. Then we shall register them. In the meantime, we are also initiating review of some of these rules, so that we do not subject Kenyans to suffering when they have had such cases. view

• 20 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also wish to support the appointment of Mr. Kimaiyo as the Inspector- General of the police force. This is in line with the reforms that came with the new Constitution. One good thing about Mr. Kimaiyo, which my colleagues have talked about, is his previous experience and training in the police force. So, this is the right person for this job instead of getting someone from outside the police force. view

I hope Mr. Kimaiyo will address this issue. view
• 20 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: I also wish that Mr. Kimaiyo will ensure that the reforms that we need in the police force are undertaken according to the requirements of the new Constitution. view
• 20 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I beg to support. view
