• 2 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as we go on recess, I wish to remind the two Principals that the Constitution that was voted for by Kenyans belongs to Kenyans. It does not belong to any individual. It does not belong to any ethnic group. Therefore, it must be implemented to the letter and in spirit. I also wish to call upon Kenyans to be vigilant on the two Principals or any other leader that may wish to take the implementation of the Constitution in the wrong direction. The civil society must come out and help Kenyans. view
• 2 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, recently when a mistake was almost made in the implementation of the Constitution, the civil society helped this country.

Why can that institution not buy that rice so that it can be availed to the ... view

• 2 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: If hon. Members do not obey the law which they, themselves, pass here, who will obey the law? We must obey the law! view

• 16 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) The quality-four-streamed national and provincial schools in each of the 47 counties are in the list which the Member has. I will read out only the national schools because the provincial schools are so many and it will take a lot of time to read them. In Nairobi County, we have the Lenana School, Starehe Boys School and Centre, Starehe Girls School and Centre, Nairobi School, the Moi Forces Academy and Kenya High. In Kisumu County, we have Maseno School and in Uasin Gishu County we have Moi Girls, Eldoret. view

The provincial four-streamed schools are as shown in the list which the Member already has. (b) Comparatively, Migori County is not disadvantaged because it has some four- streamed quality schools. The Ministry will undertake the following measures to develop more quality schools in the disadvantaged counties:- (i) We have already constituted a taskforce to harmonize education policies, structures ... view
