• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to support the Statement that has been brought to the fore by our colleague, Sen. Seneta. Kenyans are looking up to us, as the Houses of Parliament. When such grave issues about their safety are put to the kind of test that we have observed in the last few weeks, it is so embarrassing. It is a shame that as a House, we have not considered ways of solving this issue. It is two weeks since the issue was aired and none of the Houses of Parliament has addressed it specifically us in the ... view
• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is a very important issue. I personally agree with my colleagues that IFMIS aids devolution in terms of accountability. The Statement by Sen. Dullo highlights some of the challenges which the national Government has been unable to address. The truth is that if you speak to some of our colleagues who work in the county governments, they will tell you that the national Government continues to run the counties through the IFMIS. The national Government decides when you can procure, pay people and so on. That is so unfortunate. As the Members of the Committee on ... view
• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker Sir. I would like to formally withdraw this particular Bill having consulted with my co-sponsor; Sen. (Dr.) Mwaura. We had a discussion with the Committee and felt that there are certain things that we first needed to clear bearing in mind that the Committee was working on a Bill that is almost similar to this Bill. Therefore, I formally withdraw it. view
• 18 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me a chance to also register my support to this Statement by my colleague, Sen. (Prof.) Kamar. It is about a very poignant issue in our country at this point in time. We are discussing something that we ought not to because we cannot consider ourselves to be a dignified society if we cannot comfortably feed our people. All these conferences we keep on having in Kenya--- Yesterday, I saw the gathering of Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA view
• 17 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance. I join the rest of my colleagues in adding my voice to this serious issue that has been brought to the fore in the Statement by our colleague. We need to pay keen attention to moral decadence in our institutions, especially secondary schools. view
• 17 Jul 2019 in Senate: It is my sincere hope that the Committee on Education chaired by my good friend, Sen. (Dr.) Langat, will do something. I have no doubt on his capabilities to demand discipline from students because that is what he demanded from me when I was his student. I hope he will be a bit firm on this one than how he used to deal with me. view
• 17 Jul 2019 in Senate: The Statement only raises the issue of bullying but there are three issues I would like the Committee to consider when they will be looking into this Statement. They should invite the Ministry to explain how they intend to handle the vices because it is a growing concern to many parents who take their children to public institutions. These are bullying, drug abuse and gay and lesbianism. If not properly checked, these three issues have the capability of wiping out an entire generation in our country. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified ... view
• 17 Jul 2019 in Senate: I blame Sen. Prengei for engaging the good Senator from Isiolo to a point of not following what I said. Had she followed through, she would have heard that I said that the Committee should further look into the other two issues. Sen. Prengei, please, allow Sen. Halake to concentrate on the debate. view
