However, what I am trying to say is, yes, there are Members of Parliament who have shown an intention of becoming Members of the Opposition, but I say this very loudly: They cannot belong to any political party which sponsored them to this House and call themselves members of the Opposition. You cannot be a member of the Opposition when you come from the parties which joined hands in forming the Grand Coalition Government like the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) or Party of National Unity (PNU). You cannot! Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we are ... view
• 8 May 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, first, I would like to say that this is a good Bill and, indeed, I support it. In developing countries, especially in Africa, there are certain countries such as South Africa and Egypt, which have made great strides in development.

If we do that, then we shall be violating our own rules. According to the rules and procedures, if the Bill is brought here and a Member of that Departmental Committee moves to defer--- view
• 15 Apr 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for drawing the attention of this subject matter to Mr. Githae. I have taken this opportunity because I have not yet been sworn-in. However, I am one Member of this House who would not wish to see hon. Members violate their own rules; whether one is a Minister 440 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES April 15, 2008 or a back bencher. We must respect the dignity of this House.

• 25 Sep 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am sorry because my voice is low. It is time the Minister started with Export Processing Zones (EPZs), which employ more than 100,000 people. Their terms are very poor. I hope the Minister will start with EPZs. Those investors are just playing with the Government. There is no revenue to the Government and workers get almost nothing! view
