• 16 Feb 2017 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, let me conclude my thought. Perhaps this is a good moment for us to deeply reflect and realise that for sure, we need to change tact. I agree with the sentiments raised by Sen. (Prof.) Anyang'-Nyong'o, that, it is good for us to be alive to certain realities, for example, we all know that this is an election year and as we draw closer to the days where major political parties in the country will be doing their nominations, it will be difficult to raise numbers. Perhaps it calls upon the leadership from both sides of ... view
• 5 Jan 2017 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Sir, for giving me this chance, though with the two minutes I doubt if I can put across any important point other than just to say that when 50 per cent of the people that voted for me to come here wake up, they head to their fields to pluck tea. One of the effects of tea plucking is that it greatly disfigures your finger prints. I observed that in 2013 during the voting exercise that it was a big struggle to identify members of the society with the Electronic Voter Identification Devices (EVIDs). It is ... view
• 28 Dec 2016 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have three simple things that I wish to say. First, I congratulate the House for how they have transacted this extraordinary business today. Secondly, I point out something that I have heard a few of our colleagues mention. I think Sen. Ongoro mentioned that these amendments have been requested by the Jubilee Coalition and the Independent Electoral Boundaries Commission (IEBC). This being a House of records, let it be on record that these amendments were requested by the IEBC and the Jubilee Coalition has nothing to do with it. In conclusion, I remind my ... view
• 1 Dec 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also wish to join my colleagues in welcoming the visiting delegation. I am a regular listener to a radio talk show that Junior and Hon. Sakaja feature as guests. view
• 1 Dec 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, my apologies. I was referring to Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. I am a regular listener to that talk show though I hardly ever agree with what Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. normally says. Many times, he misleads the country while Hon. Sakaja is very often right in the things he pushes. Therefore, I welcome them to the Senate. view
• 1 Dec 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, let me congratulate the Cabinet Secretary for Education, Dr. Fred Matiang’I, for being an outlier. For those people who travel, Robert Forster tells us that, “The road not travelled: For daring to dream and imagine.” This means that you can redeem the image of education sector in this country. Congratulations the Cabinet Secretary and your team. Bravo! Thank you. view

• 1 Dec 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Motion of Adjournment but with a very heavy heart. I am in a reflective mood this evening. This has been a wonderful Session for me. At a personal level, I came alive to the happenings of the Senate. Being a new Member, I learnt many things and made my contribution in a small way into securing the gains of this country. This is especially in regard to The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the ... view
• 30 Nov 2016 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. This petition is before this House at an interesting time. It is encouraging to see that the people who matter in regard to the role of the Senate still believe in the power of this House. They value the work that we do as Senators. I congratulate the residents of Nyamira County for the oversight role that they seem to be doing despite the inadequate resources that are at their disposal. This is an encouragement to the Senators that despite the challenges that we face, we can still do our work diligently with or without ... view
