• 16 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this letter of allotment is about a settlement scheme. There is no indication that these people's land was snatched from them. They were being offered land in a settlement scheme; if I may look at it. view
• 16 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is a different Question. I have said very clearly that these farmers were offered land in a settlement scheme. There is no indication that they were evicted from elsewhere. view
• 8 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance to contribute to this noble and gracious Motion. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, village elders are the backbone of administration in this country. They are actually the most neglected people in the world. They do the donkey jobs and they are never recognised in some parts of the world. I want to thank the Mover of the Motion, Mr. Wamalwa, for thinking so positively about the village elders in the country. Village elders are spread all over the country and work 24 hours. The chiefs, assistant chiefs, district commissioners and ... view
• 8 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I take this chance to thank you for recognising that I have been a teacher for the last 30 years, and spent most of my life in teaching. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, when we talk about education, we are talking about making a human being. Making a human being means developing the mind, the body and the soul. To develop the mind, the teachers are supposed to teach the child, and they must be motivated. They must be well paid. They must have a good environment. The child also must be in a good ... view
• 30 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to seek for the indulgence of the Chair, the answer I have is not satisfactory in my own interpretation. view

• 23 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to apologise for coming late. That was due to the fact that we are discussing the Ministry of Lands Budget, and we were looking at the issues that were raised by the hon. Members yesterday. That is why I have come late. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am aware that most farmers in Trans Nzoia District lack title deeds to their farms, and are thus unable to access finance from the AFC and other financial institutions. (b) The number of parcels registered are 41,679, while the total number of title deeds ... view
• 23 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to agree with the hon. Member that we had started that crash programme but due to limited resources which we have been allocated and which is also evident in the Budget, we were unable to move round to do the surveys and issue title deeds as we were required by the public. Otherwise, if we are given money, we would do it even tomorrow. view
• 23 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to correct my brother. Actually we have started issuing title deeds but I have said it here, that our Ministry is ready and willing as long as we are given the money to speed up the exercise. We need money to move around. The Ministry of Lands lacks vehicles and enough manpower in very many districts. It is upon the Treasury to allocate us money. We do not allocate money. view
