• 19 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I join my colleagues in recognizing the presence of students and teachers of this school which I cannot pronounce its name. I thank you for coming to learn from this Senate. It is a House of elders. Though there might be youthful leaders, they are also elders at heart and professionally. During our time, we had problems in school. However, the problem is not the school. It is parents who are not empowering our children according to the African culture. This school is better because they are empowered by the culture of their communities. They uphold ... view
• 19 Jul 2016 in Senate: Bw. Spika wa Muda, nimesema kwamba wako katika mahojiano makali ya Maseneta kuwahoji kuhusu uvujaji wa fedha za jamii na mambo yale yote waliyokuwa wakifanya. Ukweli wa mambo sasa uko mezani. Baada ya muda kidogo, wananchi watajua ukweli wa mambo uko wapi. Wale waliokuwa wakisema kwamba Maseneta wamefanya nini, wapelekwe nyumbani, nataka wanisikize.

• 19 Jul 2016 in Senate: Bw. Spika wa Muda, tukizungumzia administrators, tunamaanisha ya kwamba hawa tukiwa tunaita kwa lugha yoyote ile, ni watu ambao tumewaandika kutatua shida za Wakenya, wawakilishe wananchi ambao hawakuwakilishwa au walikuwa na shida tofauti hapa na pale ili tuwalete karibu na Serikali. Ugatuzi ni kuleta serikali mashinani. Kwa hivyo, walipoletewa serikali, hatutaki machifu hawa watumike vibaya na magavana. Hiyo ndiyo sababu nilisema ya kwamba wasiwe sahani au kijiko cha magavana. Wanafaa wawe watu wa kuwakilisha wananchi wanaotaka huduma kwa karibu. Bw. Spika wa Muda, tunataka marekebisho kwa machifu yawepo lakini wawekewe kwamba tukiwafuta leo, tuandike wengine.

• 2 Jun 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, today, I am very different. As you can see, I am wearing my white clothes signifying that I am more than clean. This Senate has been misused. I categorically say we can never be used as a rubberstamp again. It is a pity that many Bills have been passed by the National Assembly without passing through this Senate. Some very important Bills like the Sang Bill and others have been shelved and eventually thrown out of the window when they are referred to the National Assembly. Let us stand firm and show that this Senate can also ... view
• 2 Jun 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, while appreciating the sentiments of the Senate Majority Leader, this House is part of Parliament. Parliament is Parliament. Therefore, we cannot work like subordinates. Let the Senate Majority Leader understand that Parliament is Parliament and we are the “upper” House. We cannot be subordinate to the “lower” House. That is what I am trying to say. view

• 4 May 2016 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, is it in order for the learned Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale to declare that he will apply all gymnastic means---. He said that he will remove commissioners of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) from office by Monday by hook or by crook. That is a very serious issue because there are very many ways of killing a rat. You can go to court--- view
• 4 May 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, what is out of order is that the Senator has declared war by saying that he will remove commissioners of the IEBC from office by Monday. That is a very serious offence! view
• 19 Apr 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is a very important day for the people of Kenya, especially those from my county. It is sad for my county which only gets about Kshs4 billion. Part of this money ends up in the pockets of the governor and contractors. Most governors have at least ten contractors whom they use as “fishing baskets.” Tana River County is one of the counties which have problems in terms of accountability. The pending bills were presented in this House recently and Tana River County was not included. The Auditor-General has also clearly stated that Tana River County ... view
