I can see you are worthy of being a presidential candidate because you know these things.

I support this Bill because it protects one of the greatest assets that this nation has. That is our success and dominance in athletics.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is a very straight forward issue because it is a matter of law. We, as a House, are mandated to ensure that there is rule of law. We will be setting a bad precedence if we receive such a petition and then reduce our arguments to the level of asking ourselves whether an appointee is from a minority community, marginalized or a woman. The question that we should be asking is whether the law was followed in her appointment. We have a good Constitution, but the problem is that we do not want to follow it. ...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance. I want to address the issue of our partnership with the KLM. We have been told that the management said it is being reviewed. When will this review be done? This is a statement that has been mentioned for so long yet we know that one of the main reasons why the Kenya Airways continue to lose money is because of the skewed partnership that it has with the KLM.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think the reason why we need to seek more clarity on this matter is that it will unravel one of the mysteries which has baffledSenators for quite a long time. The mystery is, how governors manage to find a “bypass”. We all understand that a county treasury is organised in such a way that before any funds are drawn, they are committed through a budgeting process. Any time there is expenditure, it is from a particular vote. For a long time, we have been wondering how governors manage to get through this, likely on paper, ...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance. I rise to contribute in support of the Speech made by His Excellency the President to the two Houses of Parliament. I want to address some of the issues that are worth noting, especially as a young legislator and someone who is still new in the House. There are some things that I observed on that day that bother me to this day. As political leaders, we should be careful in the way we carry ourselves and behave. We have supporters who draw their actions in society from what ...

Thank you Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for this chance. I rise to support this Motion of Adjournment. In the interest of time, I do not think I will be able to give out all my thoughts but I just want to laud the efforts of my colleague, Sen. M. Kajwang, who despite playing from a separate team from mine, has said that he looks forward to walking to the Chamber tomorrow to listen to the President as the Head of State. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it is a great statement and it speaks more of the kind of leadership that ...

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this Bill. It gives me great pleasure because having come from an election recently, I have witnessed first-hand the kind of challenges the deputy governors experience. It is our principal duty as the custodians of devolution to ensure that for any emerging challenges, we come up with Bills like this. They will provide an answer to the challenges experienced daily. If for no other reason other than the fact that a deputy governor is elected alongside the governor and they earn a salary for this and considering the much they ...
