• 21 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: At some point, the Ministry found out that its employees were colluding with fraudsters. They released the surrendered original title and it is being used to sub-divide and deny genuine land owners their right. So, as the Assistant Minister has confirmed that investigations are going on, it is important to confirm to the House that those genuine owners who are enjoying the use of their land are protected and they continue to enjoy the use of their land without interference from the fraudsters. view

• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, besides the condolences sent by the Assistant Minister, it appears from this answer that the core business of this Government is to protect the lives of animals instead of the lives of Kenyans.

• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I think we need to come back to what it is we want to do. The issue is an amendment by Mr. Mututho.
