• 3 Apr 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. This is a very serious issue that the Senator for Nandi is raising. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it will be of great interest to us, being representatives of our people, considering that many of them either do not have the capacity or resources to file petitions. Therefore, this House should, for once, address this issue, because it is an issue of concern. There has been a lot of information and misinformation on this issue. In these days of fake news, only a proper confirmation from the Ministry will help us in understanding the true ... view
• 3 Apr 2019 in Senate: our children either catch a cold or many other things. What we do not know is what further damages is caused to their health arising out of this situation. Therefore, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I request that you direct the Committee to respond to this issue quickly. It should, first, take time to listen to the response from the Ministry and also the victims. They should take their statements so that when they eventually bring a report to this House, we shall be able to make a firm decision. This report should enable us to even issue very strong sanctions ... view
• 2 Apr 2019 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 2 Apr 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, apart from the noise, you should also direct that at least they facilitate Members to be able to access Parliament with so much ease. When I was coming, I could not access the road from City Hall. The stern mean-looking gentleman told me that it does not matter who I am even if I was a commissioner. It is only that I do not have the demeanor to take him on. On behalf of my Members who are supposed to be provided with services and facilities as their principal custodian of those facilities, please, direct that if ... view
• 2 Apr 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. We have a tradition in this House where we support the issues of great importance brought by our colleagues but we also take the opportunity to include issues that we feel are of particular importance to the constituents that we represent in this House. Therefore, if you permit, I request the Chairperson of the Committee that will look into this Statement to also inform this House on the status of a dam called Masaita in Kericho County. The residents have been promised this dam for the last 20 years. President Kibaki gave them a promise ... view
• 2 Apr 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will try to stick to your advice on the need for us to observe time because this is an important exercise. We are here to approve the nomination of the next Inspector General of Police, an officer who plays an integral part in making our society what it is. If he lives by the dictates of our Constitution, he shall give us a fair and just society where we will all be secure and do business in whichever part of the country and live peacefully with one another. Since this is a nomination process, I ... view
• 2 Apr 2019 in Senate: how much he will have changed the perception and the reality of Kenyans on the issue of corruption in the National Police Service. view
• 2 Apr 2019 in Senate: Second and most important, I thank Sen. Sakaja for spending a good amount of time speaking about the issue of extrajudicial killings. As a young person, and more so a leader representing so many young people in this House, the issue of extrajudicial killing continues to pain my heart. It is unfortunate and sad that even this House has never formed a select Committee. I encourage Sen. Sakaja that when he eventually brings a Motion to set up a select committee to look into extrajudicial killings, I am willing to serve together with him. This is because growing up as ... view
• 2 Apr 2019 in Senate: Should we approve Mr. Mutyambai, three or four months down the line, we want to measure him and see how much order and discipline he will have brought to the National Police Service on account of extrajudicial killings. Will he have stopped it and the officers who are found to be culpable face the full effects of the law? view
• 2 Apr 2019 in Senate: I had four other points, but in the interest of time, I just want to talk about three points. I was also concerned about his response on what is a big topical issue right now in the country, that is, the roles of the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) versus those of the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC). I do not think that anybody in their right mind can say that the DCI should not take time to investigate corruption cases. Many of us have used this Floor and other avenues to speak against some of the practices that we ... view
