• 3 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Let me finish! He had better listens! He has just come in! view
• 3 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is what I was saying and I am surprised that, as the Chair, not only is he not listening to what I say but he is also not comprehending it! I said, and I repeat, that the amount of money allocated this year is Kshs10.1 billion and that at the end of this year there would be a shortfall, in that amount due to the CDF, of Kshs1.5 billion that will be remitted as at 30th June, 2009. That is what I said! view
• 2 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I stand to oppose the Motion on the Floor of the House on two grounds. One is on the ground of hearsay. The person who is being quoted as having the circumstantial evidence is not here and he has not spoken about it. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, more important and fundamental is that these people who have been proposed by the Committee have not been at work. If there is an irregular procurement in the Ministry of State for Defence, action should have been taken by now. The fact that it is now coming ... view
• 2 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the point I was trying to put across before the Division Bell was rung is that, what we are dealing with here are unsubstantiated issues. This House must not be held at ransom by issues that have not been raised. The second issue is that, what the Committee has brought here for nomination by this House are people who, I believe, have not been in the office. If there are issues that have happened in another department that is unrelated to this, they were people acting in those positions who should have taken action. It ... view
• 28 May 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker. First of all, the hon. Members who spoke yesterday and the hon. Members who have spoken today have supported that we adopt the Economic Survey Paper, 2009. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Economic Survey Paper, 2009, was baring the facts as they are, and the state in which we are. It is important for all hon. Members to appreciate the state of affairs of our economy. Therefore, the point that I emphasized yesterday, and the point that remains very critical up to today, is that we need to jumpstart our economy! We ... view
• 28 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Prof. Olweny spoke about water catchment and conservation. I spoke about it yesterday. This issue requires no further emphasis! It requires to be sorted out once and for all. We should identify which are the catchment view
• 21 May 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am seeking clarification on an earlier ruling that you made on a Question by Mr. Mungatana on the issue of GTV. I was just wondering because this issue cuts across various Ministries. It is not just an issue for the Ministry of Finance. It also involves the Ministry of Trade and the Ministry of Information and Communications. Could that Statement be directed to the Office of the Prime Minister because he is the person who should answer if an issue cuts across Ministries? view
• 13 May 2009 in National Assembly: But we are here! view
• 13 May 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Standing Orders are very clear on the definition of a Minister. Could he withdraw and apologize because we are here? view
• 7 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me an opportunity to speak on this very important issue. Let me, first, congratulate the Select Committee for coming up with respectable names of respectable Kenyans who have a job to do for this country. I want to appeal to the Committee responsible for the names that have been brought to this House, first and foremost, that they should review the gerrymandering that took place in the past, in the manner in which constituencies were divided. A lot of hue and cry that has arisen is because of the manner in ... view
