• 29 Nov 2018 in Senate: What they are subjecting people to pay is equivalent to giving a directive that has a force of law. Therefore, as a House, this is something that we urgently need to address and find a long lasting solution to. I hope that the Committee that will look into this will give a long standing solution. view

• 29 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, would it not have been in order for the Senate Majority Leader, to tell us who this Governor is, now that he went into great lengths to explain to us that he is a senior leader in a party that he belongs to yet he continues to undermine the great work of the Senate, a House that he leads? That is important for future references because anybody reading the Hansard of this House in another 20 years’ time will not know who this Governor is. He should be named and shamed for them to know that they ... view
• 29 Nov 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. When my good friend, the Senator for Murang’a, Sen. Kang’ata, contributes, he is generally very loud, audible and clear but, today, he was whispering. That tells you how vicious his Governor is, and that his Senator fears him even in Parliament. view
• 29 Nov 2018 in Senate: On a more serious note, the orders that Senators are seeking that you give this afternoon are very important and cardinal to our operations as a House. It will not be the first time that your good office will be stamping the authority of our institution in the Republic of Kenya. I wish to remind you that in the last Parliament, when we were debating the controversial election laws, Senators found Parliament marooned by police officers and we felt that, that was intimidating to us as Members of Parliament. From that very Chair that you are seated on, your predecessor ... view
• 29 Nov 2018 in Senate: Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir. As I was saying, the orders that we are seeking you to make are not strange and it will not be the first time. On that fateful day, from the very seat that you are sitting on this afternoon, the then Speaker ordered that there shall be no transaction of any parliamentary business until the police officers who had cordoned off Parliament were asked to move out. Business came to a standstill until they moved away. Therefore, we are pleading with you to protect this institution by telling the Inspector General (IG) --- I suspect ... view
• 29 Nov 2018 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. You have tried to guide Sen. Kang’ata under our Standing Orders on the role of generally being within the confines of what is the content of debate in the House. Earlier on today, there was a serious debate on the official Senate WhatsApp group, where Sen. Kang’ata, for the first time since he joined this House, asked for the Order Paper. I have been sitting here curiously; and I wanted to know what is this matter that he had great knowledge in and which he wanted to share with the House. ... view
• 29 Nov 2018 in Senate: The fact that despite your earlier warning or caution to Sen. Kang’ata to remain within the contents of what is within the Bill, there is this continuous move to speak about a particular institution, which is not clear to me. Maybe he can help me to understand why the interest in that institution. view
• 28 Nov 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker Sir, for giving me this chance. I support this Bill by my good friend, Senator for West Pokot; Sen. Pogishio. This is a very important Bill which even before we delve into its merits because in any case, it is a very small amendment, I would wish to call to the attention of the House that on many occasions, when presented with Bills during Second Reading, Senators suggest so many good proposals for amendment that they note with how the Bill has been drafted. However, when we are doing Committee of the Whole, we have just ... view
