• 15 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, unless I have a look at them--- But my position is simple. If the Assistant Minister could give an undertaking to this House that those employees will be reinstated to Superfoam and not any other company, then I will be satisfied. I may request the Chair to give me time to look into the records that he has brought and I seek your indulgence to move the Question to sometime next week. That way, I will be able to interrogate the documents that he his referring to. In any case, if you listened to the ... view
• 15 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will wait and hope that it happens and, if it does not, I will raise the matter again. What may appear as common sense to some of us is never sense at all. view

It is also important for him to note that it is wise when he has such a long statement to make a copy available to the Member. Mr. Speaker, Sir, having said that, you heard him say that Dr. Matu died because of injuries while in police custody. Could he confirm that those injuries were not just accidental injuries? These injuries were as a result of torture; torture of a Kenyan simply because he had a bed in his pharmacy! Also--- view
• 14 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Yes, Mr. Speaker, Sir. My point of order is simple. When the Minister was answering the question by hon. Mungatana, he did state that there could be a State to State compensation arrangement, or the family will ask the Government of South Sudan to compensate them? Is it in order for him to mislead this House that a Kenyan can go before the Government of South Sudan to seek compensation? He says there are no adequate police facilities? How do we turn to them to ask them for compensation when they are killing us? Could he tell the House that ... view

Is the Minister satisfied that Kenyans in South Sudan are safe? If he is not, what are they going to do, as a Government, to make sure that Kenyans in South Sudan are safe? As it was said by other Members, we have housed ... view
