• 19 Feb 2025 in Senate: Maybe you can give him permission to clarify what he meant. view

• 19 Feb 2025 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am really sorry to Sen.Onyonka because it is not my intention to disrupt him. Nonetheless, he is inviting this upon himself by claiming matters that are not factual, which leaves us with no other option than to interrupt and ask him to check his records. I know for a fact that not once, twice or thrice that Kenya has made its position clear on the Palestine-Gaza dispute, that they believe in the two-State solution. We have never come out clear to say that we support any of the parties. Therefore, it is not right for ... view
• 19 Feb 2025 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I take this opportunity to appreciate all the Senators who have taken their time to speak to this very important Motion. Initially, when I conceptualized this idea, I desired that we would take time to reflect as a country and positively evaluate what has been a fairly decent ran by former Prime Minister Rt. Hon. Raila Odinga and a very good representation of the country at the global stage. However, to my utter dismay, I have seen a few people trying to reduce it to a contest about what President Ruto got wrong as if he ... view
• 19 Feb 2025 in Senate: I listen to many people ignorantly speak about the conflict in the DRC and matters on the global stage with very little, limited and scant information about the position of Kenya on such matters and how it may have affected voting. When I was moving this Motion in the morning, I said that it would be completely ignorant of anyone to draw a deduction of this campaign run by the former Prime Minister Raila Odinga based on speculations about who may have voted for us or not for the very simple reason that this was voting by secret ballot. By ... view
• 19 Feb 2025 in Senate: Motion. However, I have seen people discuss friendly nations and the local matters in that particular country with wanton recklessness. That should not be the case. Sen. Cherarkey tried to bring it to the attention of the Speaker when that matter first showed up this afternoon when we had the visiting delegation from Uganda. Unfortunately, maybe how he sought the attention of the Speaker was not impressive enough. The Speaker reserves the right of whether to allow one to make their point or not, but it is not proper. Many Senators need to acquiesce themselves with our Standing Orders that ... view
• 19 Feb 2025 in Senate: If you were not a candidate in that particular exercise competing with them, the least you can do is to look away if you do not like that particular person. At the very worst, at least just keep quiet. If you are a patriot, take time to celebrate them and lend your support, but not to do the kind of things we saw being done. When the former Prime Minister was touring African countries, there were people who posted pictures. When the President had dinner with the former Prime Minister of Kenya, hon. Raila Odinga, you go to the comments ... view
• 19 Feb 2025 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I want to conclude by expressing three issues that this Motion intended to do when we set it out this morning. The first one was to express the thanks of the Senate to the Rt. Hon. Raila Odinga to appreciate that he gave a good account of this country. This Senate notes that despite the fact that he may not have won, it was not because of anything in his own capacity. Given that it was a competition and there were other judges, they may have held different views. However, as a country, we are proud ... view
• 19 Feb 2025 in Senate: Today, he was charged for forgery and not because of the misleading comments he said about what Kenya did with the candidature. Apart from having a driving license, which is probably also forged, that is what the court will be told later on. As I said, we record appreciation to the President for the kind of support that was accorded to the former Prime Minister Raila Odinga by the Republic of Kenya. Third and final is that the Senate of the Republic of Kenya records its congratulations to His Excellency Mahamoud Ali Youssouf on his election as the Chairperson of ... view
