• 14 Nov 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I appreciate colleague Senators who have taken time to speak to the Elections (Amendment) Bill (No.2) Senate Bills No. 29 of 2024, one of the three NADCO Bills. I also wish to thank Sen. Okong’o Omogeni who seconded the Bill and the more than 15 Senators who took time to speak to it and share their concerns on our elections management. The most important thing I would wish to say about this Bill is the fact that you are aware that in the last three election cycles, we have had amendments to the elections management practices manual, ... view
• 14 Nov 2024 in Senate: Part of the basics of any sport is that the referee needs to properly understand the games governing that particular sport. Therefore, we have given the IEBC ample time to prepare for this. By the way, it may not be known to many, that IEBC themselves appeared before us during the NADCO process. I have not checked the report of the committee. I will look at it before we do the amendments. Subsequently, I believe they appeared before our Justice and Legal Affairs Committee which looked into this Bill. With those very many remarks, I beg to reply and under ... view
• 14 Nov 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to move that the Public Fundraising Appeals Bill (Senate Bills No.36 of 2024) be now read a Second Time. This is a very interesting Bill. You will recall that earlier this year when we had challenges in the country, there are many things that citizens brought to our attention about what was not right. There are things that they felt that as leaders generally, we need to address and find a long-lasting solution to. There are many things, which they told us as a leadership in Parliament and also for those in the Judiciary. I ... view
• 14 Nov 2024 in Senate: that we get here and the quality of the technical staff that we have assisting us as legislators. Mr. Speaker, Sir, 30 per cent is on something called the affirmative action. That is a point where you include People Living with Disabilities (PLwDs) and regions that are least represented. This policy is so specific. We fine-tuned it to include it even in programmes that we run. I will give you another example. You know for a fact that Parliament of Kenya runs an internship programme for our young lawyers. They come here to intern and we pick the best. That ... view
• 14 Nov 2024 in Senate: enrolled and that there are people who sit in office, but find themselves not doing as much as they could. On the other hand, there are other Ministries that are understaffed. We do like you do in any organisation, rationalisation of ensuring that you deploy, move others from this arm to the others. Therefore, there were deliberate efforts that we promised the country that we were to take as the Legislature. Mr. Speaker, Sir, there is more that was supposed to be done by the Executive, which I want to believe that part of the statement that the President will ... view
• 14 Nov 2024 in Senate: There was a big conversation about how we regulate and provide an environment where harambees are not banned. There is a good measure of control. We went out and sought public opinion. Mr. Speaker, Sir, somebody from the Secretariat spoke to me today. Curiously, you may want to take time to read through the memoranda that Kenyans sent. However, it may not reflect what was being said at that particular time. What people were saying is that they do not want us in public fundraisers. Now there is a proposed law before Parliament. Many people were sharing clips about a ... view
