• 17 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has given a very long and winding answer to, an otherwise, very short Question. I wanted him to state categorically whether our students will pack their boxes and go to Alliance High School or whichever school and not pay a single shilling.

Could he inform this House in precise terms whether students will not be required to pay any fees, that is from Form One to Form Four in form of levy or tuition? Will the Government provide free secondary school education? This is what we are asking in simple language. We want to get it from the horse's mouth today. view

• 17 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also want to congratulate my friend, Eng. Karue. Indeed, the only semblance of development in my constituency is through the CDF. I thank the hon. Member for that. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for example, the Government made Kshs3 billion from Mumias Sugar Factory, which is in my area. That amount of money went to the Treasury.
