• 22 May 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you have heard a long story about thieves within the Pensions Fund Scheme but my second question is: When will this lady be paid? Why does she have to wait for three years for the Government to sort out thieves who are stealing from the pensioner’s fund? Can the Assistant Minister give an undertaking when he will pay this lady so that she can enjoy her retirement and in any case, how many others are suffering out there waiting for Members of Parliament to bring Questions to the House only for the Assistant Minister to come ... view
• 22 May 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if you do not anticipate what I want to say, I would have finished in a second. I am asking: When will this lady be paid and many others like her? view
• 22 May 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. You heard the Assistant Minister making allegations from the Table of the House and first accuse me for not being attentive. I am very attentive. He is saying that money was deposited in this lady’s account. What proof has he offered to the House that indeed Wambui Kabugi was paid? She has never been paid and that is why we are following the money today. He alleges that Wambui’s account was credited and yet he has not offered any proof. Wambui would have said to her Member of Parliament: “Yes, indeed ... view
• 22 May 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I agree with your stand on this matter but in addition, let the Assistant Minister produce the information that he has given to the House orally to support his allegation that the money was posted into the lady’s account. In the documents that I tabled here, the account is shown to be an Equity Bank account, and not the Akiba programme that he has stated. So, let him bring information to the House as to where this money was, whose account it was and how it was transferred. view
• 22 May 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. In addition, I respect your ruling but some things need to be a little bit clearer because the sections that you have read to the House pertain to Parliament approving or rejecting and the question that comes into my mind is whether Parliament has rejected or approved any without the process of this Motion. So, probably you need to clarify that because all that you have read pertains to rejection and approval which says that the President can only do certain things once Parliament has approved or rejected. Has Parliament approved ... view
• 16 May 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. This is a very able Assistant Minister but he stands here in front of the entire Republic to tell the country that he is not aware yet the hon. Member is saying that it was reported in a police station and yet he is thinking about the emotions of an hon. Member. It is not the emotions of an hon. Member; it is the security of Kenyans. This Assistant Minister should be serious! view
• 16 May 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. You realize that Ministers have a habit of walking into the Chamber and insinuating that they have spoken to Members. Are they aware that when a matter is before the House, it is no longer a Member’s matter, but a matter of the House? Also, when did the Assistant Minister realize that the answer he got from his officers is not good enough? He waits until the day he comes to the House to tell the House that he does not have a sufficient answer. This is intolerable. It is ... view
• 16 May 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Have you heard the Assistant Minister referring to ethnic communities yet the Question is so clear. Is he not out of order? view
• 16 May 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, precedence in the House is that it is allowed, unless you would want to change that precedence. view
• 16 May 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Just for the sake of procedure and rules, would I be in order to state that you have now changed the fact that an hon. Member can read a Question, so that we know that it is a new rule? view
