• 26 Mar 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is a very important Statement, especially for those of us who come from communities that practice livestock farming. How agriculture has been managed in many of our counties is extremely disturbing. It is not just extension services that are being offered to livestock farmers who are in a dire situation in almost all the 47 counties. Now that Sen. Senate has raised this very important issue, could the Chairman of the Committee also care to at least apprise this House on the measures that the Ministry intends to put in place, given the fact that many ... view
• 26 Mar 2019 in Senate: I thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 21 Mar 2019 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I wanted to disagree with what Sen. (Dr.) Zani has said. However, on second thought, given that she has tried to absolve herself of the blame and privately confided in me that she will not be taking that public position again, I would like to withdraw my protestations. view
• 21 Mar 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for this opportunity. I wish to react to the Statement by my good friend, the Senator for Kakamega County, a man that I know so well. He has raised good questions and that is something that I as a young leader had thought about in the past few days. As a country, we have been having the debate on the war on graft and how it is being executed and many people have issued statements on what they think about this particular issue. view
• 21 Mar 2019 in Senate: A German physicist called Albert Einstein reminded us that insanity is doing the same thing over and over while expecting different results each time. We will be insane as a country if we pursue the war on corruption the same way we have pursued it in the past while knowing very well that the reason we have never achieved any tangible or meaningful result is by doing exactly what the Multi-Agency Team is doing. view
• 21 Mar 2019 in Senate: As a young leader, I am concerned about my country. I would wish to live in a country where systems work. I would wish to live in a decent society where hard work pays and everybody can demonstrate that whatever they own is because of their sweat and not because they took a shortcut somewhere. However, it is not proper for me to abrogate my responsibilities and celebrate that we should support something that has been put together. I need to be convinced that the effort and actions that are being taken will bear fruits, and once and for all, ... view
• 21 Mar 2019 in Senate: Every action undertaken by the Multi-Agency Team ought to be backed by the Constitution because it is the only thing that gives us the power to do all the things that we do in this country, including gathering here every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons to deliberate on issues that affect Kenyans. view
• 21 Mar 2019 in Senate: A good reading of Articles 244 all the way to 249 of our Constitution will tell you that the Inspector-General of Police should work independently and should not be under the directions of anyone. When you form a multi-agency team and you sit there together with the Attorney-General and the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) who is constitutionally supposed to audit the work of the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) and the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) and you participate in investigations, what will you be telling us? The reason why the drafters of our Constitution saw it fit that ... view
• 21 Mar 2019 in Senate: The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 21 Mar 2019 in Senate: things that you did politically, all I needed to do was to jump on a platform and declare that you are corrupt. It is extremely unfortunate that what is currently happening is nothing other than a political war. I do not support the kind of war that is being wedged yet we are being reminded that it is war against corruption. Article 79 of our Constitution speaks of us as a country establishing an independent institution called the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission that is supposed to investigate and charge people for economic crimes. It was extremely important for us to ... view
