• 27 May 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Sen. Sang says that the Senate Minority Leader is not in the House and I can see his able deputy. I think he has to give the opportunity to the Deputy Minority of Leader. Could he withdraw his remarks? view
• 27 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to add my voice and also congratulate the good job done by the Committee. The Mediation Committee has done a good job and saved us. Yesterday, I did not sleep. I was worried whether the Committee will agree or disagree. This was a serious matter. We prayed hard, but I am glad they have done their job accurately, efficiently and also saved us. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to be on record on this issue. I want to tell the governors, wherever they are, that they have to know that we are working hard to ... view
• 21 May 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I stand in defense of Sen. Dullo. Sen. Dullo is always here and to say that she had some reason is not correct. The failure of a Senator to vote is not the fault of that Member. It is the fault of the system. The gadgets are not working. In fact, yesterday, we voted manually. view
• 21 May 2015 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, thank you for giving me this opportunity. First and foremost, I want to thank Sen. Dullo for bringing this important Motion which has really touched me. The issue of human-wildlife conflict is all over this country. It is an issue which can be addressed and solved by Kenyans and this nation. The issue of KWS officers and their engagement with Kenyans cannot be addressed unless we come up with concrete laws which will protect innocent wananchi who are butchered by KWS officers. Madam Temporary Speaker, since I was elected, over 30 men from my county are missing. ... view
• 21 May 2015 in Senate: The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 21 May 2015 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, may I say I withdraw but they misunderstood my words. view
• 21 May 2015 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, we are in a remote area and I know Tana River is one of the counties with the fewest people. We know how to manage ourselves and we can recognise easily who is not one of us. You can say that in Tana River County we are few and we can recognise if there is any stranger because we know each other. In fact, we have never had such a problem. We only had small clashes within us but we never had the presence of such people. We have ways of identifying a stranger. If you went ... view
• 21 May 2015 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I have withdrawn the misunderstood issue. Regarding the issue of “bandit” officers, I do not know who employed them but it is something which has really brought problems in our area. We need security officers where they should be and we also need justice and protection. I even fear these fellows. When we go to look after our animals, they confront us. Sometimes they steal animals, abduct herders and you have to give them money for them to release your animals. Sometimes they drive the animals from Tana River to Tsavo. When you hear that “suspected poachers” ... view
• 20 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, first and foremost before I proceed, I thank my Chairman for having given an answer. However, Members should know that the answer that the Chairman has given is borrowed from a Cabinet Secretary (CS). This is second hand information. Members should not take it that the answer is from the Chairman himself. He was answering what they asked but the answer came from the CS. If you want a clear answer from the Chairman, you have to amend the Constitution. The other issue is that the Government has to use all possible means and ways to assure ... view
• 20 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the issue of sharing names is not our concern. That should be done by the security forces or the people who said that they would do so. We know that the security of Kenyans lies with the Kenya national Government. Our counties need security from the national Government. We also need security. Therefore, the issue of victimising individuals should not arise. view
