• 13 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am a little bit shocked by the estimate that the Assistant Minister has given. It goes up to Kshs4.16 billion. That works out to nearly Kshs100 million per kilometer. Is that the right figure because in our work, realistic figures should not reflect more than Kshs20 million per kilometer? Why should it cost Kshs100 million to construct a kilometer of that road? Will it be paved with gold or what? view

• 13 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Every time we ask the Assistant Minister a question, he says that they are asking Treasury to provide them with funds, but he does not make it clear whether they have ever budgeted for that money. The Treasury does not give you money unless you have budgeted for it. It appears that you have never budgeted for the money, but you always go and ask for it, and you will never get it. The answer is not satisfactory. Is he in order? view
• 13 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has said that it is not the policy of the Government and it is actually up to the parents to decide whether to circumcise their sons at birth or not. Could he give us his undertaking that those children born in Government hospitals, whose parents have agreed to circumcise them at birth, should not be charged? view

• 13 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Minister for the answer. However, I would like to inform him that many of the elderly people do not have bank accounts. It is only about Kshs1,500 per person. Could he waive the requirement to pay them through the electronic transfer system and ensure that the wazee and the other census staff are paid in cash? view
• 13 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Minister has answered part “b” of the Question to my satisfaction, but part “a” is still pending. view
• 13 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I am yet to hear of a constituency called West Pokot. Could the Minister tell me exactly where that constituency is? view
• 12 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I stand to support this very timely Bill. It is an offence to women kind. It is a sin to God who created the body. The Sheikh has talked about the Quran and I will not talk about much more. The traditional society has always wanted to subdue the woman either in form of slavery or via the FGM.
