22 Jun 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I was saying that either the Assistant Minister has been misled or those who wrote his reply do not understand English. We can only talk of "work in progress" if the contractor has been identified. If nothing is happening on the ground, I do not know how he can say that the work is in progress. He also said that the work is finished but in Nasianda Market the transformer has not been installed. I think that is the only place where work is in progress but it has not been completed. In Bungoma, 24 projects ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, let me arrive before I put my basket down for you to see. This is a sad day for Bumula and Kanduyi. They have completed only 25 projects in Bungoma. One has been recommended in Bumula and two in Kanduyi. When will the Assistant install a transformer at Nasianda Market to complete the project?

22 Jun 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, what the Assistant Minister is saying is not right. If you look at the list he has given us, there is one project called Maliki/Mucharage/Kabuyefwe/ Suam which has cost Kshs41 million. These projects can only be done in a constituency where there is a Minister or an Assistant Minister. That is why there is no project in Kanduyi because Mr. Wamunyinyi is a Backbencher.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am reacting to the response I got. Projects have been completed in Sirisia, Webuye and Kimilili because those areas have Ministers, but there is nothing in Kanduyi and Bumula. What do you want us to say? Will the Government ever come to Bumula and Kanduyi to look for votes? When will you put Bumula and Kanduyi in the programme?

21 Jun 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the fact of the matter is that roofs of ten classrooms were blown off. I repaired three roofs with money from my pocket. That does not mean that the roofs were not blown off. The emergency funds are normally given to every school under the Free Primary Education Programme. However, how much money will the Ministry give to the school from the Disaster Management Fund? This money is usually given to friendly and politically well-connected schools.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has said that he is going to ensure that normal learning in FYM Primary School in Bumula continues as usual. How will learning continue as usual without classrooms? How normal will that be?
