We have formed commissions. We have the Kibunja Commission and the Kiplagat Commission. Those people are able to go there and talk to people, use their power, knowledge and skills to make people integrate and work together. So, why not just do that? Why should you move those people from there to Taita Taveta? Why should you move people to Maasai land? Let them go back to wherever they were. They did not come from the moon or mars. They came from somewhere and they must go back there. We know that this is hypocrisy. Those shambas are settled by ...

. We do not want arrogance from the PC who appears as---- If it was during the white manâs administration, he would have been thrown out because he does not know how to balance his socks at all. He talks to people from his desk while he is chewing khat. Khat also is a drug. I can bring 20 people who have seen him chewing khat when he is talking to them across the table. That is not the kind of man who should be given the responsibility of the whole province, which has other people. With those remarks, I ...

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have been listening very carefully to this debate. The way the English language is used is important. I have heard two important words; âso farâ and âinterimâ. So, why do we not wait until the full report comes out? Why should we ask Prof. Saitoti to apologise when the full report is coming? In the interim, nothing has been found so far, but something might be found.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have always chosen to sit at this dark corner and that is probably why you have not been noticing me. Anyway, thank you very much, indeed. This House, the Judiciary and the Executive are three arms of an Executive Government and no one arm can sit to overrule or undermine the other. That is what democracy is all about. Although my friend, hon. Kimunya, has said that the Judiciary has lost fame or something like that, I do not know about that. First, of all, I want to thank you, Mr. Speaker, for your ...

Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. First of all, I would like to congratulate the Minister for moving such a clear-cut Vote of the Ministry of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security. I also congratulate him further for having controlled cattle rustling, insecurity, deaths of people in northern Kenya, including Turkana, Samburu and all the other areas. I would like to say that, at least, there is stability there. I think it is very important to mention that for a long time, there has not been stability in the north. That is a credit to the Minister and his ...

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you very much for giving me this opportunity. I want to commend the Minister for Water and Irrigation, Mrs. Ngilu, for presenting such a very well thought-out budgetary Vote. I have got one or two points here. One of them is that some of us come from agro-pastoral areas. Some of those areas are partly agricultural and partly pastoral. I want to point out that--- For those who have flown across South Africa, they must have seen what the whole of South Africa looks like. It is dams and pans all over in the ...

Thank you very much, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I want to commend the Minister for Environment and Mineral Resources for a Vote well done and presented. My friend, hon. Michuki, is a man known by the people of this country and the world for being serious in his job and for being committed to doing the job that is given to him by the Government and the people of Kenya. The Nairobi River is one example. Nobody ever believed that the Nairobi River would be clean. He went in and did it. The most important one is the transport ...
