• 2 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Presidential Address which was delivered on 23rd. I wish to make a few observations on this very timely Address. The Address raised some critical issues affecting the lives of Kenyans. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for the last two years, the Grand Coalition Government has worked hard under the stewardship of the two principals. One area that I need to commend the two principals is the area of restoring peace in this nation. They have also made sure that harmony is maintained in this country. They have come ... view
• 2 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: are demanded from very poor and needy families. So, security must be improved in our urban areas and also in the rural areas. Investors are also discouraged by this new phenomenon that has come to this land. It is a serious menace and must be addressed. In the same breath, security along our borders must be maintained by patriotic Kenyans. Why should our people at Migingo Island continue to be threatened by our neighbours from Uganda?

• 2 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, when you look at the area of corruption in this nation, it is so bad and disheartening. It is even discouraging investors from investing in our country. Corruption has affected even the teaching profession, Civil Service and even the appointment of parastatal heads. We want qualified Kenyans to manage some of our parastatals. If you look at Kenya National Hospital (KNH), time and again, we have heads changing position. We even want someone now to take over at the Kenya Airports Authority. We want somebody whose background and qualifications will be accepted by Kenyans. We ... view
• 2 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is also notable that the feeling today is to increase university fees. This is not the time to increase university fees because Kenyans are coming out of hunger, thirst, disease and so many things. Why should we think of increasing university fees and yet, most of the university students come from very poor families? We should be sympathetic to these people, because they will be the leaders of this nation. So, opportunities must be created for these people. We should not deny them these opportunities by way of increasing fees at the universities. view
• 2 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: If you look at the water requirement in Nairobi, for example, our primary, secondary schools, colleges and other institutions require water because water is life. When water tariffs are increased by the Ministry of Water and Irrigation, we do not seem to see the plight of the innocent Kenyans in these institutions. It is the high time the water tariffs are lowered by the Ministry. When you look at the way boreholes have been drilled by the Ministry of Water and Irrigation, a review must be done because all constituencies in this nation qualify to get some boreholes. For example, ... view
