Hon. Caroli Omondi (Suba South, ODM) Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. What we are discussing is a failure of both this Government and the previous ones.

Hon. Caroli Omondi (Suba South, ODM) Thank you very much. That is a very elaborate answer. I have one further clarification to seek on the first question on P1 teachers. There was an element of salary arrears which the Cabinet Secretary did not address. The Temporary Speaker (Hon. Farah Maalim)...

Hon. Caroli Omondi (Suba South, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. We are addressing the right issue, but probably focusing on the wrong people.

Hon. Caroli Omondi (Suba South, ODM) It is important that we set the record straight. Yesterday we were at the police station. This particular lady came to record her own statement. She works for Sen. Osotsi and they were meeting that morning to plan for a football tournament. There is...

Hon. Caroli Omondi (Suba South, ODM) Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. First, it is wrong for a Statement of this nature, on a matter like this one, to come from the principal secretary, who is my friend. I feel I have a responsibility to try and assist. Yesterday, we...

Hon. Caroli Omondi (Suba South, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, is the gracious lady in order to describe what in law amounts to robbery with violence as ordinary theft?
