• 8 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am sorry I was at the back there when you made your ruling on postponing Questions. But, indeed, hon. Kutuny’s Question was to come this morning and he is there and I am ready to answer it. view
• 2 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. I had answered part “a” of this Question and it is part “b” which was deferred. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have referred this matter to the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister and Ministry of Local Government to investigate the circumstances under which that land was allocated and yet it had a chief’s office. Therefore, we need more time to get a reply from the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister and Ministry of Local Government. view
• 2 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Presumably, two weeks, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 2 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will not be available on Thursday, next week. view
• 30 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, on 25th November, 2010, that is, Thursday last week, I gave an indication that the Member for Gichugu was misleading the House following what she said in reference to the Armenian brothers; Artur Magaryan and Artur Sargasyan. I said that I required two hours to go to my house and pick the document and you gave me 24 hours. Today, I am here to give the proper position and table the document which indicates that the Member for Gichugu, the then Minister for Justice and Constitutional Affairs, attempted without success to stop the Committee on Justice and ... view
• 30 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish to table the documents. The first one is a letter written to hon. Francis ole Kaparo. The reference is: “Objection to the Legal and Administration of Justice Defence and Security Committees inquiry into the Armenian Brothers’ security breaches and unlawful conduct.” She even went further and actually said that the Committees are actually dogged with tribalism.

Her statement is very clear and says: “Another important issue to be born in mind is the lack of political neutrality ... view
• 30 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, secondly, I wish to table the ruling of the Speaker, hon. Kausai Francis ole Kaparo on the same. view
• 30 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this was a serious tussle between the Minister and the Committees at that time. The former Minister should own up to her past that she actually opposed the report. Asking for the report which she was initially opposed to is not correct. We should know that there are many other issues which the former Minister did including the rubbishing of the Inter-Parliamentary Parties Group (IPPG) as a gentleman’s agreement which resulted in having a very bad Electoral Commission, flawed elections and finally having clashes in this country. view
• 30 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rest my case. view
• 25 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The hon. Member for Gichugu is misleading the House. I was a member of the Committee on Administration, National Security and Local Authorities. She wrote a letter to stop us from performing our duties until the Speaker overruled her. Is she in order to mislead this House? view
