• 11 Oct 2017 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir, in proper parliamentary procedure, when a Member rises on a point of order, they point out something that is out of order in the House. To the best of my recollection, the very distinguished Senator for Garissa rose on a point of order and raised something that is extremely valid and of great national importance. When my good friend, Sen. Malala, rose to dispute his point of order, I expected that he would, in keeping with the traditions of this House, also point to us what it is that he finds to ... view

• 11 Oct 2017 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I will be gracious enough. I will not take 15 minutes. I will be mindful of my colleagues who would wish to make a contribution. Let me continue from where I was before I was interrupted. Many speakers have debated this issue on whether it is right for us to legislate as a House especially at this very interesting time in our country. I wish to remind everybody who cares to listen, is mindful and sincere in their hearts that they wish the best for this country, that the only way we can have a ... view

• 28 Sep 2017 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for Sen. Olekina to refer to legit parliamentary business as an exercise in futility? Why did he then campaign? If you believe that the work we do in this House is an exercise in futility, why did you go around Narok County, campaigning to come here? view
• 28 Sep 2017 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I seek your guidance. Yesterday afternoon, during debate on one of our Motions, I rose on a point of order based on utterances that had been made by one of our colleagues, Sen.
