After 11th of October, when this Question was in the House, the Attorney General promised to come with a comprehensive report. We have just heard that he is now asking for another week. I sympathise with him, but this abou the liberty of Kenyans. In his answer on 11th October, he stated that these young men were serving various jail sentences, which is not true. They have never been jailed. They were even in court yesterday. view
• 29 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is the very sad story of Kenyans suffering in a foreign jail without trial.

• 29 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do not think we have a choice. One more week does not make a lot of difference knowing that this was done in 2006. However, through you, may I request that the Attorney-General comes to the House with proper information. He has said that there is a communiqué from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. We ask the Attorney-General to come fully loaded with all the communications between Kenyan and Tanzanian authorities. That is because we know the Permanent Secretary (PS) in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is a notorious fellow. Nothing ever happens in that ... view

• 29 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am referring to a note given to you this afternoon by the Attorney-General where he has said that he had written a letter to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

• 28 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am not sure whether you heard the Prime Minister say that it is a fact that chiefs were brought to Embakasi. I am not sure whether the Prime Minister would be in order to say so without being able to substantiate that fact. I am requesting for a substantiation of that fact that the chiefs were actually brought and told that if this party comes to power, they will be fired. He said that it is a fact.
