• 8 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am making a case for my good friend Sen. Mary Seneta. I know very well the importance of the Petition because she had earlier shared with me that she would wish to bring it. Earlier when you made your ruling, she was just making her way into the House. I plead with you that you allow her to present that Petition to the House. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 8 Nov 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this Petition by Sen. Seneta. I want to congratulate her despite being a nominated Senator from Kajiado County, if the truth was to be told, if there is someone who has spoken many times about the issues affecting the residents of the Kajiado County, then it is her. I think it is a good pointer that when one is nominated he or she can do even more than those of us who were elected. I know the Senator for Nakuru, our Majority Whip has just declared war on me for uttering ... view
• 8 Nov 2018 in Senate: The point I want--- view
• 8 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have facial remembrance, but his name had disappeared for a minute in my mind. However, I know him very well. They are good friends and they have worked tirelessly for the residents of Kajiado County. view
• 8 Nov 2018 in Senate: The issues that have been raised in this Petition are matters that many of our regional water bodies continue to face. Last week in the county that I represent here, the only two water service bodies were merged. I remember that when we passed the water laws here, one of the recommendations was that before WASREB is merged or separation of any water bodies there must be proper public participation. That cannot be done, for example, without the proper involvement of the representatives of the people. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 8 Nov 2018 in Senate: I wrote to WASREB and requested them to furnish me with minutes of the meeting where they purportedly did the public participation and allowed to merge water bodies. Each water body was formed to address very specific needs of particular residents. By merging them, sometimes we disenfranchise certain sections of the population. view
• 8 Nov 2018 in Senate: The issues that have been raised in this Petition are just some of the many ways through which residents of many counties are losing while county government decide either to merge or separate water serves board. view
• 8 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I request that the Committee to which you will commit this Petition does a proper job of keenly looking into the issues that have been raised. It should be remembered that as Senate we are a quasi-judicia l institution. When we give orders, they should be properly respected because they can save the residents of this country from suffering any injustice that is being meted on them. view
• 8 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, early this week, we had a meeting with members of the Committee on Energy. The Chairman of Kenya Pipeline Company came before us and thanked the Senate. This is because I remember towards the tail end of last Parliament, there was the issue of the Line Five Pipeline that is being constructed from Mombasa to Kisumu. There were challenges of variation where the contractor has raised an additional figure of Kshs10 billion. The institution was going to pay were it not for the intervention of the Committee on Energy. They thanked us because to date, because of ... view
• 8 Nov 2018 in Senate: Therefore, the Committee that will handle this Petition will save the residents of Kajiado County a lot of agony because they have been affected by the action of WASREB. The employees of Nol-Turesh Loitoktok Water and Sanitation Company can find reprieve in this House if their prayers are acceded to. I urge that we keenly look into this particular matter with a view of having those employees properly remunerated for the services that they rendered. With those many remarks, I support. view
