• 10 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will start with congratulating the Speaker for the way he has handled this Parliament right from the beginning for those who are first timers and we were learning on how to handle and transact business. The Speaker and staff of Parliament worked like robots. I would like to state this here that they worked as if they never got tired. I want to commend them and ask that the coming Parliament should improve the numbers of staff so that these people do not wear out too soon because of the level of work they ... view
• 10 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, as we go into elections, I ask Kenyans---- view
• 9 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as the Assistant Minister closes the channels at his disposal, records held in his office show that Mr. Jeremiah Obwoma was working all the way until his case was determined. It is the same Ministry that reinstated him to work after they found him not guilty of any offence that would have him removed from the Civil Service. Could he indicate to the House what channels have been exhausted and yet, it is the same office which wrote a letter to the chief asking him to show cause why he should not be retired? It is the ... view
• 9 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, is the Assistant Minister in order to purport to have retired Mr. Obwoma and yet, Mr. Obwoma was asked to show cause why he should not be retired? That was not a retirement; it was a show-cause letter. When the appeal was made, it meant that Mr. Obwoma had not been retired. Is she in order to mislead the House and hand over this matter that is within his docket to the courts? view
• 9 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I also rise to support the Report. The names read before the House are big names and we have the history of all of them. The challenge we have here is the level of the public service. Even when this House approves a budget and there are vacancies for employment, we spend years to have the same done due to sluggishness in the Public Service Commission. So, the challenge for these big names is to ensure that they do their business in good time so that the young Kenyans who qualify for jobs are given the ... view
• 8 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, while I appreciate the comments of the Assistant Minister, last Thursday when you gave direction that we have this Question on the Order Paper today, the Attorney-General was in the House and the Assistant Minister had undertaken to come with the advice of the Attorney-General on the position of the Chief, Mr. Jeremiah Obwoma. This was, as I heard the Assistant Minister, a legal position on what would be done so that Mr. Obwoma is paid his unpaid salaries. He is now seated next to the Attorney-General in the House right now. view
• 8 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: I thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 8 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you heard the Assistant Minister tell the House that delays in releasing pensions is due to lack of presentation of documents that are required by the Government. The Government holds the files of all these officers through their working period and he is protecting or defending the pension office that it is due to delay. Could he inform the House what his Ministry is doing to ensure that the Government pays pensioners in good time because the Government has information about every officer in the Government? Are they working without any records at all? view
• 3 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I believe you heard what the Assistant Minister has said. Mr. Jeremiah Obwoma, the Chief, Kiogoro, was given a show cause letter why he should not be sent on retirement. There was no letter sacking or retiring him. It is after hearing his appeal that the Ministry decided to have him continue serving in the Government. What is the Ministry doing to ensure that this delay in attending to the matter affecting the chief is sorted out and he is paid for the service he rendered because he is still a chief in the Government of Kenya? ... view
• 3 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I am reading the Order Paper and it does not seem to agree with the Order Paper that the Attorney-General is reading from. Which Order Paper are we following? view
