16 Dec 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also intend to give a reflection on this issue that is before the House. My very personal view is that Kenya has not been made a supervisor by IGAD to supervise the incoming referendum in Sudan. That is tantamount to interfering with an independent state. Our country, Kenya, must maintain a neutral position in this situation. Our image must be maintained for now and posterity.

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. While I thank the Assistant Minister for that brief answer, I would like him to remember that railway stations in Nairobi, Uplands and Matassia are in a very deplorable state. They have been neglected for a long time. What programme does the Kenyan Government or RVR have to modernize and renovate those railway stations?

Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I take this opportunity to thank the Minister for this very timely Bill that has come to the House. One clear thing that has come out is that tea hawking in this country is outlawed. Tea hawkers are now warned to look for alternative business because the law will catch up with them. With those few remarks, I fully support the new Bill.
