19 Sep 2007 in National Assembly:
No! No! I had not got the permission. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Minister of State for Public Service, Mr. Akaranga, is quoted in today's issue of The Standard newspaper, on page two, under the heading, "Akaranga defends of hiring new DOs ahead of poll". Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, among other things, he said that:- "The Government cannot stop its operations because of the elections. Leaders like Nyong'o are making noise, but secretly would bring me names of their relatives they want to be employed as DOs". Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is an extremely dangerous statement ...

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I seek your indulgence. If, indeed, the newspapers have put in quote what the Minister said, is it the onus on me to say he did not say it or is it on him to say he did not say so?

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, notwithstanding your ruling, what recourse does an hon. Member of Parliament have before his colleagues when such a thing is reported and is in the public domain and you can also read it?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to request a Ministerial Statement on the break in, into the offices of the Orange Democratic Movement, on Chania Avenue in Kilimani yesterday at 2.00 a.m. in the morning.

11 Sep 2007 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, this House has experienced many problems because of the Ministry of State for Youth Affairs. First, the Youth Policy was not debated in this House. Two, we did not look at this Vote. Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, thirdly, what development agenda is there in the Ministry of State for Youth Affairs to warrant this sum of money compared to other more developmental Ministries like the Ministry of Co-operative Development and Marketing, which is only being given Kshs500,000,000?

11 Sep 2007 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I want us to go on record that a state which is not at war with any other state and which prides itself to be a sea of peace in this part of the world, should spend Kshs19,144,242,775 for defence, while only spending Kshs210 million for the Ministry of East African Community and just Kshs1 billion for the Ministry of Housing. What we are doing is really a ritual. It may not change much, but let it be on record that this is not the way to do a Budget. It could have been good ...
