• 22 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, during the inception of the Water Services Trust Fund, the public was made to believe that there was a lot of money and so many projects would be undertaken. However, if you look at what the Fund has done so far, it is nil. For example, in Teso, we presented so many projects. Could the Assistant Minister indicate if in the list there is any project done in Teso? We presented quite a number of projects. Today, we do not even have a borehole. view
• 22 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in any case, I have just asked if there is any project in that list that has been done in Teso. view
• 21 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Justice and Constitutional Affairs:- (a) whether she is aware that voters in Odioi Sub-location in Amagoro Constituency boycotted the 1997 and 2002 General Elections because the Ministry unilaterally relocated them from Malaba Town Council to Teso County Council; (b) whether she is further aware that despite written communications and petitions by the Malaba Town Council, the Electoral Commission of Kenya and Teso leaders to the Ministry, no corrective measures have been taken; and, (c) what urgent measures she is taking to forestall the threat by voters in Odioi Sub-location to boycott the 2007 General Election. view

• 21 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this Question has been circulated to the Ministry of Local Government, Office of the President and back to the Ministry of Justice and Constitutional Affairs. It involves a very simple and administrative matter. The people of Teso County Council have been made to suffer. The Electoral Commission of Kenya (ECK) and the Ministry of Local Government seem not to be knowing what to do. Since you have forwarded this matter to the Local Government Commission, when do you expect it to complete its findings and make them public because these people are very eager to vote in ... view
• 21 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is very frustrating if you woke up one day to vote and then you are forced to vote in a constituency where you never registered. These are the people who were supposed to vote in Malaba Town Council, but when they went to a polling station they were forced to vote in Teso County Council which was not part of their interests. It has taken this Ministry over five years to correct this anomaly. What assurances is the Assistant Minister giving to the people of Amagoro Constituency to ensure that before they vote, these centres are ... view
• 14 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Water and Irrigation:- 3132 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES August 14, 2007 (a) how many water projects the Government has undertaken in Teso District since the year 2003; (b) who the contractors for the projects were; and, (c) how much money had been earmarked for the projects and how much was spent. view
• 14 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Vice-President and Minister for Home Affairs said that there were 11 projects. Could he table the names of the projects, indicating the amounts of money that was earmarked for the projects, how much money has been used so far and tell the House whether the projects are functional? That was the main issue we had last week. view
• 14 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as we talk now, all the projects that the Vice-President and Minister for Home Affairs has read out are ghost projects. That was why the Speaker deferred this Question last week to today, so that we could go with the Minister to Teso and find out whether those projects existed. That was the main point. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to assure the Vice-President and Minister for Home Affairs that all those are ghost projects. The Kshs56 million has been "eaten" by your people in the Government. There are no boreholes or dams in Teso. view
• 14 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it was "eaten" because as he reads the answer, the money was earmarked and spent! So, what I would like to say is that all that money has been misappropriated. I think that is what caused the death of the former Managing Director of Water Services Board, Mr. Mukalo. He was trying to find out how that money was spent. view
