• 4 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I attend evening classes at Daystar University and even as we talk of Turkana, North Eastern, West Pokot, here in Nairobi there is the problem of insecurity. Our classes are supposed to start at 5.30 p.m. and end at 8.00 p.m. but hardly do they end at 8.00 p.m. because of insecurity. Students and lecturers have a lot of fear. When you go through the indicators of a failed state, I think Kenya is moving towards that. If the Government cannot provide security for its people, then it is a failed state. This is something that ... view
• 4 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, there are also other complaints. I come from West Pokot and when you talk to police officers, they tell you that there are allowances that they are given when they go for operations and up to now none of them have been paid. These allowances motivate them. If they are paid these allowances then they can serve Kenyans well but nothing so far has been given to them. So, the Inspector-General should clear these debts after we pass this Motion. Let him go and pay these allowances to these officers so that they can be in ... view

• 4 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for also giving me this chance to add my voice on this issue of insecurity. I sympathise with the people of Turkana. They are my neighbours and for a very long time they have suffered especially from attacks from our neighbouring countries of South Sudan and Ethiopia. This time, I also want to thank the Turkana people because they have chosen good and focused leaders who are here to come and improve their living standards. However, as most hon. Members have contributed here it is shameful to have Motions for Adjournment every ... view
• 4 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I remember the other day we were discussing Turkana West which also neighbours Turkana North that we are discussing today. No action has taken place. All the time the Government of Kenya is aware of what is happening along those borders. There was a time the Kenya Television Network (KTN) went to that place and there was footage where we saw a police station using donkeys as a means of transport. You will discover that the Government is not ashamed when you ask these people: “Did the Government react and send a vehicle there?" They are ... view

• 28 May 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I want to start by thanking all Members for their participation, especially from the time we started up to now. This is as constructive House and we know that by the end of the five years, Kenyans will benefit from this House. I also want to join my colleagues in congratulating the two nominees that we have approved this evening, namely, Justice Rawal and Mr. Kimemia. Justice Rawal is going to play a very great and important role in bringing justice to those who deserve it. Sometimes, some Kenyans seem ... view
• 23 May 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, thank you for this good opportunity to request for Statements. Pursuant to Standing Order No.44(2)(c), I wish to request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Committee on Lands regarding the issue of double allocation and issuance of allotment letters in relation to a block of land formerly owned by Agricultural Development Corporation (ADC) in Chepchoina. The land in question was allocated to the people who were working for ADC in 1994 and 1997. About 700 people were issued allotment letters in respect of their respective pieces of land. However, in 2013, the District Commissioner, in ... view
