• 14 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. In view of the fact that roads in the hon. Questioner’s area are in bad shape, would I be in order to ask the Assistant Minister to arrange for a tour of the area, so that he can ascertain--- view
• 14 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in the answer that the Assistant Minister gave, he said that they have not carried out proper census for the street children but you remember when Mr. Awori was the Vice-President and Minister for Home Affairs, there was an initiative that was made. Why can this Ministry not build on what had been done because the rehabilitation centres had been built in a number of places. Why can the Ministry not build on what had been done at that time? view
• 13 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to ask the Minister for Water and Irrigation the following Question by Private Notice. (a) Is the Minister aware that the water supply system to Vihiga District Hospital has failed totally? (b) What immediate steps is the Minister taking to correct the situation in view of the suffering and inconvenience being experienced by patients and the hospital in general? view
• 13 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I do not have a written answer yet. view
• 13 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity to support the Supplementary Estimates. Just to add on what the Minister for Forestry and Wildlife has said, if he got more money, I am sure that areas like the Maragoli Hills which used to be rain catchment areas would improve the climate and environment in this country. There is the aspect of roads that the Minister has just alluded to. The Kisumu-Kakamega Road and Kitale-Lodwar Road is in a pathetic state. I do not think it takes one hour and ten minutes to drive there. It takes much more than ... view

• 8 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in his answer, the Assistant Minister said that he has been instructing the contractor to replace these road signs every time they are stolen or vandalized. The Assistant Minister should know that this will add to the cost of the project. Could he consider using either police patrols or the contractor’s security, which is factored into the cost of the project rather than opting to replace the signs every time they are removed? view
• 8 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. You have just heard the Assistant Minister say that how the contractor will realize the final result is not their business. He must bear in mind that if you give an instruction, it adds to the cost of the project. Is he in order to say that? view
• 8 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have got a lot of respect for the Minister for Education. But I think the statement he has given us--- First of all, when I asked for the Statement, he gave an indication that he did not even know what was happening; he did not know! So, what is it he is talking about today when it was the economic stimulus programme? The Minister did not even know what was happening in his Ministry. He has given us a statement here, which has got a lot of untruths. He is telling us that the ... view
• 8 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I asked about specific issues and there were four of them, and the Minister has not answered them. Why were the DEBs not involved? After all, what the Minister wants at the Headquarters are the numbers of the people to be recruited; but he should follow the right procedure. Why did he change from the laid down procedure of using DEBs and used an individual, which we are running away from! Mr. Speaker, Sir, in my constituency, more than six of the names we have in the list do not come from Vihiga! view
