• 19 Nov 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I was on the queue to also make similar sentiments. I will be brief because we have already been forewarned of the consequences that can befall us. view
• 19 Nov 2019 in Senate: I note with a lot of pride the work that has been done by the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights Committee under the stewardship of my good friend, Sen. Cherargei. It was earlier observed that when this Committee was being formed, this side of the House had picked the youngest of the troops of legal minds to 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
• 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. Unfortunately, I have seen a lot of misinformation in the course of the debate. I thought it wise to perhaps keep quiet, listen and see as people are being informed and misinformed as well on the importance of these unmanned aircraft and the purpose they are meant to serve. I think the whole point on this debate is where the Government sits down and comes up with a blanket ban on an entire industry without thinking through a particular exercise. This is ... view
• 14 Nov 2019 in Senate: That is not how to run a country. We must begin calling out the Government for what I consider - I am straining myself not to use unparliamentary words - but some of these decisions are hurting our people. This decision will hurt very many young people who are involved in photography and the film industry in general. Therefore, all this debate about the drones interfering with flight paths is completely misinformed. First of all, they do not have the ability to get to those heights where they can interfere with planes.What we are talking about are basic and simple ... view
• 14 Nov 2019 in Senate: I accept. You know this is the former Chair of KCAA. He is part of the problem. view
• 14 Nov 2019 in Senate: What Sen. Poghisio and Sen. Ochillo-Ayacko are saying is exactly the problem. Nobody is arguing for the use of or otherwise of drones. What you are arguing for is this lazy Government technocrat who sits down and draws up one statement saying drones are banned from flying in particular spaces. Drones have got specifications. We are not asking that the highly technical ones like what is used in Rwanda to drop drugs that have got the ability to fly from one particular from one region to a further distance. We are talking about people being diligent in their work. If ... view
• 13 Nov 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this Petition. Up to very recently, I was quite ignorant on the challenges in the health sector until I received a very interesting phone call. For the four years that I was in high school, there was a gentleman called Kenneth Shinga Mwarabu. He remains to be my good friend. For the four years that we were in high school, he led in every exam that we sat for. Eventually, when we did our Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE), he was among the best 100 students in the country. He ... view
