31 Aug 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, let me start from (ix). In June, 2010, I received an investigation file relating to a separate, but related matter. The allegations contained in the said file are different, but similar to those in the file submitted earlier on. On perusal of this file, we found that the pattern and the deficiencies in the investigations were the same. (x). In both files, the police appear to acknowledge the difficulties in investigating these matters. I have suggested that a forensic audit be done by an independent institution. The Kenya National Audit Office (KENAO) has been approached, but it ...

31 Aug 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I answered the Question last time, I gave a breakdown of the Kshs7 million. I stated that the file was resubmitted and the KACC, after this explanation, recommended to the Attorney-General that the only person who can be pursued for the amount of about Kshs246,000 is Mr. Mwaliko. Now, I know as a fact that appropriate letters were written by the KACC. When the file leaves me, it goes back to the KACC and they take the administrative matters that are recommended and accepted by me. They, in fact, wrote to the Registrar of Societies who ...

31 Aug 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am just trying to get the documents. I am aware of the document that she is referring to. When the police were investigating this matter, they realized that some key documents were missing. Consequently, they wrote to Harambee Co-operative Sacco and said that they wanted those documents. There is a letter by Mr. Mohamed L. Amin, the officer in charge of the Banking Fraud Investigation Unit addressed to the General Manager of Harambee Co-operative Sacco. I wish to quote part of that letter. It reads: âOur team of investigators is getting difficulties in getting some documents ...

31 Aug 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, following that letter, I have a document from the General Manager, addressed to FOSA Manager, asking for those documents. The document is dated 14th January, 2010. The FOSA Manager then replies to the General Manager that they have been unable to get those documentations and further giving a plausible reason for being unable to get those documentations which are very critical. They say:- âKindly be advised that the cashiersâ specification forms files might have been taken by the police officers from the Criminal Investigations Department (CID), acting on a court search order sometimes in 2009. â

31 Aug 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, that is why I said that there appears to be a passing of responsibility. The Harambee SACCO officials are saying that these documents were taken by the CID sometimes in 2009, pursuant to a court order. The CID are saying: âWe do not have the documents, produce them.â I agree that there is everything rotten in Harambee SACCO and it must be unearthed. It appears to me that we cannot rely in the passing of the buck of responsibility between the police and Harambee SACCO. I stand to be corrected; Harambee SACCO actually is a SACCO for ...

31 Aug 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have not seen the letter, although I am a Member of Parliament. I should also have received a copy of that letter. But whether or not I can dissolve this committee, I do not have such powers to do so. I think the powers may lie somewhere in the Ministry of Co-operative Development and Marketing to where that question can be directed.

31 Aug 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I honestly cannot talk about the way they have been performing financially. I cannot say whether they have been performing better in terms of increasing their finances and so on. I am not qualified to do that. My role is very limited. Has an offence been committed? If it has been committed, do we have proper investigations? If we have proper investigations, has prosecution followed and have they been made answerable? My role is confined to that. So, I cannot really answer that. That is why I wanted a forensic audit to be done. Somewhere around 2003 ...

25 Aug 2010 in National Assembly:
On a point of information, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I think we should commend this particular Minister, because for the first time instead of giving road show information to the public, he has come here to give information to the National Assembly. We should commend him instead.
