There is the function to impeach the President and the Deputy President; the function to pass the Budget of the nation and the function to vet State officers. Judge Odunga should ... view
• 5 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: None of us came here through the Judiciary. This is because no Judiciary voted for the 347 Members who are here. In my opinion and I am sure in the opinion of the whole House, the Judge suspended these Standing Orders. Standing Orders are here for two fundamental things. They are written rules under which Parliament conducts its business. If Justice Odunga does not know, I want to enlighten him that these are written rules under which Parliament conducts its business. They regulate the way Members behave, the way Bills are presented and processed and how debates are organised. The ... view
• 5 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Jakoyo, you need to relax. I am the one who rose on a point of order. I can speak for another 20 minutes with the permission of the Speaker. This is a very serious matter. Let us not trivialise it. Let us not put it in a context. The best Hon. Wandayi could have done was to appeal to the Powers and Privileges Committee which you chair. I am sure if he appealed to that Committee and the Members came from both sides and convinced you, Hon. Wandayi would have been back in this House long time ago. Hon. ... view
• 5 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: have nothing against Hon. Wandayi. The route is very clear. He can appeal to the Powers and Privileges Committee which you chair. The independence and sovereignty of the Legislature is at risk. It has been threatened following this court ruling. I need your guidance on that before any other action is taken on whether to admit the said Member or not. view

• 5 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: Despite the IEBC fulfilling its constitutional mandate to a degree of competence, issues have been raised with regard to credibility, impartiality, integrity and independence of the IEBC. For a number of weeks, Kenyans have been treated to a number of incidents of protest over the removal of the IEBC Commissioners, their stay in office and the conduct of the general elections. Innocent Kenyans lost their lives and property when businesses were looted and vandalised. It is the mandate of this House to offer leadership in times such as this in order to safeguard the supremacy of the Constitution and the ... view
