• 17 May 2021 in Senate: Before I was interrupted, I said even if there were 99 allegations, so long as the general mood and thinking in the Committee points to a serious case of maladministration in the finance department and health docket, that is enough ground for impeachment. We previously found that with another governor. view
• 17 May 2021 in Senate: I do not understand this obsession with Africans. As a lawmaker, sometimes I struggle to understand this. For an African to do a right thing, you have to specify to him as if it is medical prescription. A county governor does not know that at least once a year, he needs to go back to the County Assembly and give a progress report. The governors in view
• 17 May 2021 in Senate: The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 17 May 2021 in Senate: this country want us to prescribe the County Government Act and tell them that it is a must for them to go. Mr. Speaker, Sir, common decency demands that since you cannot meet all the residents of your county, you should at least have the decency to appear before their representatives; the county assembly, and give them a progress report of the things that you are doing. However, since we have not specified it in law, I see it appear so many times when we handle impeachments. I was in the Committee for the impeachment trial for Gov. Granton Samboja ... view
• 17 May 2021 in Senate: I forget her name - the judge would issue a verdict and say, so that becomes a lesson to you and others who think and behave like you--- view
• 17 May 2021 in Senate: Sen. Wetangula helped me to capture it better. Let this be an example to governors who do not step in their county assemblies, and those who are running the health dockets of their counties the way it is being handled in Wajir. This is our opportunity as a Senate not to punish the good gentleman or disagree with the findings of the Report, but to lay a basis. This is so that Kenyans can see how the Senate of the Republic of Kenya treats and considers such matters when they are brought before us. Mr. Speaker, Sir, there is another ... view

• 17 May 2021 in Senate: County, and by extension, the Republic of Kenya. This is a lesson and a wake-up call to many governors to know that if they practice these issues in their counties, they will catch up with them at a particular time. We must laud County Assembly of Wajir, and the rest of our county assemblies need to learn from them. At this time, it is not very common to find county assemblies prosecuting and raising weighty issues as raised in this case. We know many county assemblies are under the capture of their executive. They may not find fault with the ... view
• 11 May 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, allow me to seek clarification from you with regards to the communication you have just made. There is somebody who said here last week - I cannot remember who it was - that Senate is a gracious beneficiary of court orders. The reason we survive is because on many occasions, when Members of the National Assembly in total disregard of the constitutional provisions have gone ahead to do things that injure the standing and place of the Senate in our Republic, we have always rushed to the courts and that is why we are still relevant. Mr. ... view
• 11 May 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, do not set a bad precedent. We agreed that we are going to use a hybrid system because we passed a resolution. Hon. Members who are online are just like us who are seated here. If there is a technical issue, we resolved that we should wait until it is resolved then they are heard. Otherwise we will revert back to the usual tradition where all of us have to come to the House. It is not fair to have this kind of a hybrid system, but when we face technical issues, then we want to proceed. ... view
