• 12 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, maybe we can bring the statement in two weeks time. I hope that the Majority Leader will also intervene on this particular matter so that the answer comes on time. view
• 12 Mar 2014 in Senate: No, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I was just remembering what the Leader of the Majority said this afternoon; that there are some people who are standing in between the Executive and Parliament. If those people still exist, I would need his intervention. view
• 11 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I beg to move the following Motion:- THAT, noting that the Constitution of Kenya (2010) fundamentally changed the architecture of the Government in the country, aware that many people in Kenya including elected leaders are not conversant with the new structure, especially the devolved system; the Senate urges the national Executive to undertake comprehensively well structured and systematic civic education countrywide on the new system, so that the Kenyan people can understand and positively participate in its implementation.

They have shown that they are really committed to the implementation of the Constitution of this country. If properly implemented, this Motion will be a milestone towards that because the basis of devolution is not the Senators or Governors but to give self-governance to the people so that they can govern themselves and manage their own affairs. They can only do that if they had power, and knowledge is power. They can only get this knowledge through civic education. I thank you all ... view
• 6 Mar 2014 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to speak on a Motion ably moved by a Member of my Committee, Sen. Adan and seconded by Sen. Lesuuda.
