THE PARLIAMENTARY DEBATE THAT NEVER WAS:QUESTIONS BY PRIVATE NOTICE ON THE
THREAT BY SPECIAL PROGRAMS MINISTER ESTHER MURUGI TO STRIP NAKED
Mr. Shabeer: Mr Speaker, I beg to ask the Justice Minister the
following question by Private Notice.
(a) Why hasn't the Special Programmes minister been compelled to
strip naked as she promised
(b) If she wont do it, why has she not been arrested for giving
false information and misleading Kenyans?
Justice Minister Mutula Kilonzo: Mr Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. As
we all know, the honorable Minister For Special programs promised, or
threatened if you like, to strip naked if the ICC confirmed criminal charges
against Uhuru Kenyatta. Well, the ICC called her bluff and did exactly that.
But it has only been a week. I propose we give her one more week to see
whether she will come good....
Mr Khalwale: On a point of order, Mr Speaker.
Speaker: What is it, member for Ikolomani?
Mr Khalwale: Is the minister in order to give Esther Special
treatment in the house? it is not like the ICC will reverse the decisions.
Speaker: Order, Mr Khalwale! The ICC may in fact reverse the
decisions. The member for Gatundu South has indicated that he will appeal
the decision to confirm the charges.
Mr Khalwale: Mr Speaker Sir, to end impunity in this country, Murugi
must strip. To teach other loose-mouths in the government a lesson, Murugi
must strip. to reassure the public who were misdirected into buying
big-screens for the strip-tease without adequate information, Murugi must strip!
Speaker: Order, Member for Ikolomani! Proceed, minister for Justice.
Mr Kilonzo: As I was saying, Murugi should be given one more week to
come good, failure to which I will appeal to the President to appoint a
tribunal to investigate her conduct.
Medical Services Minister Prof. Anyang' Nyong'o: May I ask what measures the
government has put in place to ensure that the health of Kenyans is not
compromised if and when the Member for Nyeri Town decides to strip? Kenyans
could get traumatized....
Speaker: Order, honorable minister! You are the minister for Health,
and indeed an integral part of the government structure, shouldn't you
be asking yourself that question ?
Public Health Minister Beth Mugo:
Mr, speaker, I have put all
government ambulances and and clinical officers on standby, should
the people of Kenya get shocked by
the sight of her nakedness, and in case some Kenyans faint in the
process.
Finance Minister Uhuru Kenyatta: My ministry has also dispatched
12.5 million shillings to Murugi' s Ministry. As the minister in charge of
Special programs, she has initiated an operation-badilisha- wardrobe for her
naked stunt. Mr Speaker, we have approved her proposal to overhaul her
underwear. She shall replace her old Mothers' Union panties with sexy
lingerie, at a cost of 400 000 shillings per g-string. (applause)
Karua: On a point of order, Mr Speaker.
Speaker: What is it, member for Gichugu?
Karua: Mr Speaker, is the Finance Minister in order to use public
funds to overhaul the wardrobe of a Murugi? This is a private affair!
Odhiambo: we also have our privates....
Speaker: Order! Order honorable Millie, you are out of order!
Minister for Finance, you may proceed.
Kenyatta: Mr Speaker, the Honorable Murugi is a government minister.
She represents the image of the government. Therefore, her actions are a
direct influence on the government's image and the government must take
responsibility and act decisively.
Speaker: Is 12.5 million decisive enough? I though the government
would be more sufficiently philanthropic.
Kenyatta: I have also set aside 5million shillings for the hire of a
secure and decent place for her to strip. Mr Speaker, we propose that Murugi
conducts her strip-tease in Liddos' Discotheque, to be aired live on KBC. We
have also contacted a popular porn website (name withheld) for space...
(uproar)
Speaker: Order! Order honorable Members! Can we please calm down and
air our views one by one. Member for Ugenya, what is your problem?
Orengo: Mr Speaker, this is an outrage! ODM was never consulted in
this matter. PNU must recognize that we are equal partners in the coalition.
This is very disrespectful.
Mr. Musyoka: Will I be in order to ask for funds for round 3 of
shuttle diplomacy? The international community needs convincing that this is
indeed a noble act and not in any way meant to spite the ICC. ..
Speaker: Mr Vice President that will not be in order. You will need
to file a motion to ask for funding.
Khalwale: And how did the Finance Minister arrive at the decision to
award Liddos the lucrative contract? How was the tendering done? What is the
problem with other strip-clubs, for example Apple Bees or Tahiti?
Kajwang: Yes, Mr Speaker, there is no strip-o -meter! How did he
arrive at the conclusion that Liddos is the best place to strip?
Kenyatta: Mr Speaker, this is an emergency. A special program.
Tendering will take weeks, within which time she may be arrested for
providing false information.
Mbuvi: Point of order, Mr Speaker.
Speaker: Yes, Member for Makadara?
Mbuvi: Ni aje vijanaa hawako kwa hii plot. Manze mkibuy mangodha za
ngiri soo nne bila kuinclude vijanaa kwa mpango, hizo ngodha tutachoma!
Vijanaa ndio majority, tunajua kustrip poa baada ua kupractise na zile song
ya bend-over, get down, wezere, kila siku wasee kuchips-fungana kwa club,
twitter na Facebook, experience tuko nayo kushinda wazae despite age
yetu....
Speaker: Order, member for Makadara! A point of order is not a
debate!
Bifwoli: Endi why has chender palance noti peen consiteret in this
tepate! iko wanaume wengi wanawesa kutoa suruali pwana! (laughter)
Speaker: Order! Order, honorable members! Member for Bumula, you are
out of order! You know the standing orders well, at this juncture you can
only speak on a point of order or point of information. No one gave you
permission to speak.
Bifwoli: I am chust tellingi the truth. Hata sisi wanaume tunawesa
kutoanga suruali. Wakoli Bifwoli can also wear underwear worth 400 000.
Mupunge msima kama mimi hawesi shinda amefaa kaptula za Gikomba! Hata uchi
nitatembea, kwansa

Speaker: Order! Order member for Bumula! You are out of Order!
Bifwoli: In facti nikisimama uchi, na Muruki asimame uchi apo kando,
am sure nitapendeseko kumshinda. (more laughter and applause)
Speaker: Order! Order Honorable members, order! member for Bumula,
you have gone too far. That's it. I order you to leave the floor of the
House immediately. Sergeant at Arms, could you please escort Wakoli Bifwoli
out of this House!
Bifwoli: (walking out) Uuuuuwi! Uuuuuwi! Marende Pooole! Pole!
Marende is a tikteta!!!
