• 5 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do not need to answer the hon. Member. You have done it for me. Regarding the Assistant Chief who was sacked, I was going to say that if there is a vacancy somewhere, where he can fit in, let him apply and compete alongside other applicants. He will be considered, if he is found to be still fit 16 years after his appointment was rescinded. view
• 5 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I agree with my brother, hon. Cheruiyot but, unfortunately, as I said, in that particular area, the post has been filled up. However, if there will be another vacancy arising in the area and he applies, he will be considered alongside other applicants, but with a sympathetic eye. view
• 5 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in order for a chief or assistant chief to serve people effectively, he or she must come from that area. I am not aware of the case being raised by the hon. Member of Parliament. I think this issue can be answered in this way: If somebody did not belong to that area before, but he bought land and lives in that area, he has every right - like the people who have been living in that area before he came into that area - to be offered employment like a Kenyan. view
• 5 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I entirely agree with the hon. Member. I think it is important for the interviewing officers to make sure that the people they are interviewing belong to that area. I do remember that as a District Commissioner (DC), in order for us to know everybody, we used to incorporate in the interviewing panel the prevalent religion in that area. If there are Christians of a certain denomination, we invite one of the bishops or pastor to tell us about the character of the person and, therefore, I think it was a big error that, that ... view
• 5 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I said earlier, in rural areas, chiefs are not transferrable. In any case, I am not sure that in that particular case, there was a vacancy at that time when this man was being removed from his post. I also said that if what the hon. Member is saying is true, that there is a vacancy in Abakori, I advise that he applies for the post and he will be considered along with others, but with a very sympathetic mind. view
• 4 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: I think I touched this thing by mistake. view
• 30 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am aware of the increased vandalism of transformers for cooling oil and scrap metal, telkom wires for copper, wood furniture and home appliances for sale as scrap metal. (b) I am aware that the crime has continue to increase due to the high demand of iron for construction in Kenya--- view
• 30 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: I am sorry, I mixed up my documents. view
• 30 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: No. I am ready, Sir. view
• 30 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) On 27th June, 2012, Pastor James Omollo Atieno of ABC Church, Kayole, was asleep in his house within the church compound situated within Soweto Area near Masimba Stage in Kayole. At about 3.00 a.m. an unknown number of gangsters entered the church compound from the back after cutting through the fence and forced open the door to the pastor’s house. On entering, one of the gangsters struck him once in the head. The pastor screamed only once before dying. His nephew, Master Harold Auma Ojongo, who was asleep in another room within ... view
