• 10 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: I support this Motion. view
• 21 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to support this Motion although I have some critical issues to raise. I want to speak candidly about the attitude that some hon. Members have against students under the parallel degree programme. It is as if they are a lesser level of students. The education system in this country has perpetuated a culture where even a bright student somewhere in between primary school and secondary school can be lost and not find entry into the university. Such a student would, therefore, need a second chance. What do I mean? About 80 per cent ... view
• 15 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like, as I seek clarification from the Minister, to recognize the number of women Ministers who are here and congratulate them for coming to do their work. Mr. Speaker, Sir, in the discussion of food production and security in this country, the Ministry of Agriculture takes key responsibility. However, from our interaction yesterday with the Ministry of Finance and Ministry of East African Community, we do realize that there are some policy measures from those Ministries that are impacting negatively on, especially wheat and maize farmers. What is your Ministry doing to ensure that policies ... view
• 14 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thought that the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance has really looked into this detail economically. But he should now see that this has become a real issue where people are demonstrating on a daily basis. Members of Parliament cannot really sit back and watch. view
• 14 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance to tell us exactly what channels within the East African Community he is using, including the East African Legislative Assembly that has a Committee that can look into this issue and sort out? view
• 14 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, a Committee of the Whole House has considered the Prevention of Organized Crimes Bill and has reported the same to the House with amendments. view
• 13 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to send my condolences to the people of Uganda. I would like to ask the Ministry, on the issue of Somalia, Kenya has totally been involved in the process for very long. Certainly, even if we do not have our troops there, we know that we can be a target because of our involvement. Each time I hear the Minister speak, I do not hear the voice of the Minister of State for Defence or that of the Minister of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security on this issue. For me, ... view
• 7 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Local Government to clarify when he speaks about providing security to the campaign teams for No and Yes. view
• 7 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, during the last Uhuru Park rally where there was an explosion, that meeting had been classified as a prayer meeting. I continue to see on Sunday a lot of prayer meetings being turned into No campaigns. Have you clarified to the No team how to state whether this is a No campaign or it is a prayer meeting, so that there is adequate security on understanding what kind of meeting it is? view
• 7 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in the last few months, there have been numerous cases of police officers being shot in mysterious circumstances while on line of duty.
