• 19 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to ask the Minister of State for Administration and National Security the following Question by Private Notice. Could the Minister explain why police prevented Mr. Moses ole Sakuda from presenting trophies at a football match in Ngong Town over the Easter weekend? view
• 19 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it may be possible that the Assistant Minister and myself do not live in the same country. It is also quite possible that everything you read in the newspapers may be fiction. But it is quite evident to me that on televisions and the print media, it was reported that Mr. ole Sakuda was not only prevented from entering the stadium, but subsequent to entry, he could not present those trophies and was frog-marched by the police under the supervision of an Officer Commanding Station (OCS) called Mr. Saitoti up to Karen. Could the Assistant Minister ... view
• 19 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am very impressed by the Assistant Minister's attempt to sanitise the story. You could sanitise the story, but you will not prevent the truth from being known. It was said quite clearly, that the OCS, Mr. Saitoti, explained that he had received orders from above to stop the match from going on. It was only after popular persuasion and pressure that he allowed the match to go on. In the end, he stopped the chief guest from addressing the crowd. How can you be a chief guest who does not speak to the people? What ... view

• 19 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as hon. ole Ntimama has said, this is an election year and all of us are going to do what Mr. ole Sakuda did. We would like honesty from the Government. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, is it really true that the youths heckled Mr. ole Sakuda, to stop him from addressing them, when had been their guest of honour and was giving them presents? It defeats logic that after giving so much money, you can be heckled. Is it not true that the OCS who went to stop Mr. ole Sakuda from addressing the crowd, is ... view

• 18 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I would like to support this Motion very strongly. The free primary education can only make sense if there are enough teachers to teach students and pupils in schools, and if the teacher-pupil ratio is effective. Apart from the fact that there is a tremendous shortage of teachers in our schools, the teacher-pupil ratio is alarming. There is a primary school in my constituency with about 600 pupils and only about 12 or 13 teachers, who work very hard. I am quite sure that if there were more teachers, that primary school would ... view

• 18 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: It is a Luhya folk song. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think we should make use of all our human resources in the teaching profession. I am quite sure that if we opened our doors even to pastors--- A lot of people who were teachers, like my father, went on to become pastors and clergymen. We have a lot of clergymen in this country who are very good speakers on Sunday. Why do you prevent them from teaching in schools during weekdays? Let them go and teach Christian Religious Education (CRE) in schools! Why do you have to train ... view
