• 7 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: be proper for the House to know that the Justice and Legal Affairs Committee was magnanimous to the extent that they invited the JSC, so that they could give them a fair chance to execute the issues before them. That same Commission chose not to appear before the Committee. Hon. Speaker, you have ruled several times that this House exercises oversight. For the JSC not to appear before us whereas other organs of Government appear before us sparks of impunity. I really think that the consideration before us is not that Parliament is violating the work of JSC, we are ... view
• 7 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you very much. Hon. Speaker, I will be very considerate because I know many Members want to speak to this matter. The acts of JSC as presented before us, let us not create people who are above the law. This is because the law does not anticipate that. Even the members of the Judiciary can be removed. So, there is nothing that stops us from removing Commissioners of the JSC especially if they are in violation of the Constitution in the manner that was manifest in the petition presented before our Committee. This has nothing to do with the ... view
• 7 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: there has been a violation of the Constitution and that is why we recommend that the President forms a tribunal to investigate the members of the JSC.

• 7 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Speaker, Sir. view
• 7 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Speaker, Sir. Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir. Of course, you know I have very good regard for my learned senior, hon. Olago Alouch. But is the hon. Member in order to mislead the House that the only ground for removing a commissioner from the office is a serious violation of the Constitution? My reading of Article 251(1) (a) through to (e) actually gives five grounds amongst which are:- “(b) gross misconduct, whether in the performance of the member’s or office holder’s functions or otherwise. (c) physical or mental incapacity to perform the functions of ... view
• 7 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: (d) incompetence; or (e) bankruptcy. Is the hon. Member in order to only insinuate that serious violation of the Constitution is the only ground which you can use to remove a commissioner from office? view

• 24 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you very much hon. Speaker. I think what hon. F.I. Ali wanted to say was that I am secretary to the Parliamentary group of CORD. That is what I think she meant. The members of CORD ably did that a couple of weeks ago. I really thank her. I would like to rise to second this amendment. I have listened to my colleagues speak to this particular matter and I appreciate you for standing firm today to say that this is a matter that must be decided and we must conclude today. Kenya is losing on the African Continent. ... view
• 24 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker for protecting me. I do agree for a fact that young people’s voices need to be represented. The reason I am seconding this particular amendment is because hon. Shukra, apart from being youthful, comes from the marginalized communities. Hon. Wandayi did raise that this House is represented by several Members of Parliament from various political parties. This particular list only includes three political parties. I think it is good to cast the net wide. Apart from hon. Shukra being a member of the CORD coalition, she comes from the Wiper political Party. I think it is ... view
