• 23 Jun 2020 in Senate: I heard people talk of cartels at the Ministry of Health. This morning, I read in the newspaper that the Cabinet Secretary said that his other biggest battle aside from fighting COVID-19 has been fighting cartels at the Ministry. It will be important to hear of the number of cartels at the Ministry. We do have Members in this House who have served as Ministers in the same Ministry. They should tell us how the fellows who are called cartels look like. Every Minister or Cabinet Secretary who has served in that Ministry does talk of cartels in that Ministry. ... view
• 23 Jun 2020 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, I wanted to confirm from Sen. Cherargei whether he meant the Senate Majority Leader or the Leader of the Majority? If he said ‘leader of the majority,’ then in that regard, he is right with regard to the Majority side. view
• 23 Jun 2020 in Senate: At some point, I saw Sen. (Dr.) Langat seated here, probably he may have come in and changed cards without me realizing. That is what he did without my realization. view
• 23 Jun 2020 in Senate: Allow me to proceed as Sen. Cheruiyot, but he is my neighbour, there is no problem. Madam Temporary Speaker, I watched the CS, a week ago in bewilderment, explaining to the country so confidently that what he was doing was for the good of the people of this country. Every time, there is a threat on the balance of rights between individual rights and the rights of the State, individual rights take precedence. If the CS has a legitimate case against these people, at least even in his language and approach, the most decent thing that he would have done, ... view
• 23 Jun 2020 in Senate: watch these things unfold in our country. We do not say anything about it despite the fact that we are in position of authority. I want to remind you that a day and a time will come when you will no longer have the platform that you have right now as a Member of Parliament. Another Government that is not favourable to you will show up at your home and declare you landless. This current administration is setting a very dangerous precedent. If you have a title deed, for whatever it is worth, until you exhaust all channels of appeal, ... view
• 23 Jun 2020 in Senate: I want to plead with our colleagues who sit in the Committee--- I do not know which Committee will handle this, but perhaps it is the Committee on Lands, Environment and Natural Resources to please use the case of Sun Valley as an example. Let there be a set procedure. Let the citizens of this country know that the Senate of the Republic of Kenya cares for their rights. Let reports be published and let the Cabinet Secretary come before this House and explain to us what logic he is using in deducing the kind of reasoning he was passing ... view
• 23 Jun 2020 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. view
• 23 Jun 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, sorry to interrupt, my good friend, Sen. Faki, but I just want to confirm if it is in order and if it is true that the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights is referring to Sections of the Parliamentary Service Commission Act (2019), an Act which they themselves have led this House in taking to court and pleading before the High Court of this country that in the establishment of that particular Act, the proper procedures of passing an Act of Parliament were not followed. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for ... view
• 23 Jun 2020 in Senate: That Bill concerns both Houses of Parliament, yet it was only considered in one House. So, this Committee leaves me confused. On one side, they are with us in court arguing that that Bill ought to have been brought before this House and in considering this matter, they are now quoting it. What is the official position of the Committee on that particular Act? view
• 16 Jun 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. This is a very important Petition before this House. The issue of lands registries and how we, as a country continue to manage them, after 56 years of Independence, leaves a lot to be desired. This House must put down its foot and ensure Kenyans get better services from the lands offices. Every successive Government has been promising us that they would digitize our lands registries. I remember some Members of this House who have served as Cabinet Secretaries in the Ministry of Lands and Physical Planning promising the same, but they left the office ... view
