• 12 Sep 2019 in Senate: It is good that Sen. (Dr.) Ali has come when I am talking about this matter because he is a Member of the PAP. This is a request we are making to them. We need to see the contribution of Members of the PAP. They should speak to this particular issue that is extremely urgent. Madam Temporary Speaker, as a country, our response to this particular issue is extremely worrying because up to date, the statements that have been released by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Trade have not been helpful. All we are being told is that ... view
• 12 Sep 2019 in Senate: I request that Sen. Wetangula guides this House because of his experience as the Minister for Foreign Affairs. When we discuss the Motion, it will be important to see whether it is time to have a proper discussion with the officers he left at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and if they properly understand their responsibilities. The other day, China released a list of countries whose citizens can be allowed into China and granted visas on arrival, and Kenya is not among those countries. I do not think there is a country that gives Chinese more business on this continent ... view
• 11 Sep 2019 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 11 Sep 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg your indulgence, because this is a very difficult situation; it is like watching divorce proceedings of your parents live on the television. The more we keep talking, the more we continue disparaging each other and 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
• 11 Sep 2019 in Senate: saying nasty things to one another. We need to hang our heads in shame, and there is no debate about that. However, in the interest of time, I humbly request that those who have spoken have done so on our behalf. Can we just proceed to vote? view
• 10 Sep 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I want to add my voice to this issue. I share the concerns of our CPAIC Chairman, Sen. M. Kajwang’, as far as the need to have the input of county assemblies into the accounts of a particular county. view
• 10 Sep 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the rebuttal by the Senate Majority Leader is with merit as well as far as Article 96 of the Constitution is concerned. We, as the Senate, have the final word on any particular issue that touches on the success or failure of devolution. However, I want to imagine a situation where, for example, a Senator of a particular county is not in the room when CPAIC is considering accounts that have been brought before them. I have had opportunity to read through the Auditor-General’s Report on my county. Some of the issues that are raised would only ... view
• 10 Sep 2019 in Senate: If you find yourself in such a situation where CPAIC is considering the accounts without any formalized way of the assembly having their input on this particular issue, then chances are that so many issues may easily be explained away by the executive, with failure of either the resident Senator or the county assembly actually point out the Committee to the right direction that when the executive is answering is misleading to a particular extent. We have found instances where a particular road, for example, is named Road “A” to “B” using the local name. When the county executive committee ... view
• 10 Sep 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am informed and appreciate that information. I want to request that when Kericho County comes, please, invite the county assembly as well. view
• 1 Aug 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I want to agree with my colleagues who have added their voice to this extremely important issue. In other countries, farmers and servicemen, who serve in the military, are the most celebrated professions. Unfortunately, this Petition has shown us that the life of our men in uniform is anything but rosy. It is my humble request that the Committee that will consider this Petition should go beyond the call of duty of just penning a report and having it gather dust in Parliament. That Committee can invite the leaders who are in charge of our ... view
