• 21 Nov 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker Sir, you need to guide Sen. Mwaruma. The next time he is lost, he should consult the Clerk-at-the-Table.

• 21 Nov 2019 in Senate: Constitution says. For example, I have just seen that today, the CS for Environment and Forestry extended the period on the moratorium on the ban of logging in our forests for another six months. Mr. Speaker Sir, you remember that the issue of how the decision was made, it was strongly criticized when we were in Naivasha meeting with the Kenya Private Sector Alliance (KEPSA). It points out to the issue that Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. raised; the fact that the Government unilaterally makes decisions without regard to the Constitution and how it affects the lives of Kenyans. Mr. Speaker, ... view
• 19 Nov 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. The issue being raised by my colleague, Sen. Iman, is very important. In the last few weeks, we have seen various Government agencies trading blame over what should be regarded as a very serious issue of national security. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the dangers on the lives of the people who were in that flight cannot be over-emphasized. That the Kenya Airports Authority (KAA) was not prudent in executing its mandate, is not in question. However, what worries us more is that instead of giving a better explanation on the measures they intend to ... view
• 19 Nov 2019 in Senate: I request that instead of the usual 14 days, this matter be expedited, and this House be briefed properly on it within the next seven days. view

• 19 Nov 2019 in Senate: lead that Committee. However, slightly close to two years that this Committee has been in existence, Sen. Cherargei has led it with great distinction and honor. This Committee has achieved tremendous things, including being listed before this House this afternoon. I congratulate him for that. That is testament that given a chance, the youth are the answer to the problems in this country. Secondly, there are two things that this Committee is handling that are of great national importance. The Chairperson spoke to it. I know that the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) Amendment Act is before this Committee. ... view
• 19 Nov 2019 in Senate: It is good that the distinguished uncle to the Speaker is walking in and listening to me as I say this. Our party leaders and the people who are at the forefront of political parties need to put a voice to the challenges that the Independent Electoral Boundaries Commission (IEBC) faces. These matters are squarely before this particular Committee. It is my sincere hope that this Committee will expedite this particular request and give the country direction. Finally, is to exert a point that I have mentioned each and every afternoon that I get an opportunity to speak in this ... view
• 19 Nov 2019 in Senate: Therefore, it is a challenge to us. The Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights has shown us that it is possible, using the instruments of the Senate, to provide solutions to the challenges that this country continues to face. Thank you. view
• 14 Nov 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I want to support this Statement because it is a very important issue.
