Hon. Ali Raso (Saku, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. My question is on the issue of unfinished stadiums like Marsabit and the others that you have indicated, which have taken an inordinately long time - six to seven years. Once you close out those facilities, the people who would have...

Hon. Ali Raso (Saku, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I thank Hon. Passaris for this very important and unique Motion. The New Higher Education Funding Model fell. It did not just fall; it fell flat on its back. The reason for that is there is no national level. Everything...

Hon. Ali Raso (Saku, UDA) Thank you very much, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I believe that judges and lawyers are the best people in town but, having listening to that judgement, I doubt if they are well informed. They do not understand the chemistry, history and character of this country. Without...

Hon. Ali Raso (Saku, UDA) On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker.

Hon. Ali Raso (Saku, UDA) Hon. Deputy Speaker, it is very important indeed. What Hon. Kamket has raised has been referred to our Committee. We will give a response in two weeks. However, coming from a marginalised area and as a pastoralist, it is his right to stand in his...
