• 2 Dec 2014 in Senate: Sorry, into Somalia. The purpose of that was to hit the snake on the head because at that time the Al Shabaab had already begun infiltrating Kenya, causing damage to churches, malls and everywhere else. We felt that if we went across the border into Somalia, we would be hitting the snake on the head and, therefore, these incursions would be reduced. However, it appears that we have not quite succeeded there. In fact, as you can see, incursions and incidences have increased rather than reduced. I am supporting this Motion because this is part of the reason this continues ... view
• 2 Dec 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am not proposing to amend the Motion and I am not saying that we are now having it. I am saying that once we endorse this Motion and when it is presented before the National Assembly in the near future on this very issue, ways should be found in which both committees can come together so that we have one committee of Parliament looking into this important national issue. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. should be a bit more careful because his ears are better than mine. This is what I was ... view

This particular Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill No.2) (National Assembly Bill No.33 of 2013) has not been interrogated in the way it ought to be interrogated by the Senate. This Bill is good. I commend the National Assembly ... view
• 27 Nov 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I know you as a man who knows these Acts backwards and forwards. But for the benefit of the Members, I was proceeding a bit so that they understand the context in which I am making it. view
• 27 Nov 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I wanted direction that maybe we should take a little bit more time on this Bill rather than hurrying it. Let it be submitted to the Committee on Agriculture to interrogate these amendments. It should also be referred The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 27 Nov 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I accept your ruling, it is a good ruling. As I said in the very beginning, the matter has had confusion somewhere along the line, between the two Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bills. That has caused confusion. I do not know to what extent. There was a ruling by ole Kaparo when he was the Speaker that one can only bring amendments during the Committee Stage and Third Reading which have been mentioned during the Second Reading. In other words, you cannot just come up with an amendment out of the blues during the Committee Stage when ... view
