• 28 Mar 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I just want to ride on what my Senator has said. Regarding the issue of pollution, I would also like the Chairman to explain to the House and Kenyans why Space Lounge in Kilimani makes noise to the whole community. The people there have even complained but to date the place is still open and they still play loud music. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 28 Mar 2017 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Is the Senate Minority Leader in order to tell Kenyans that the security crisis we are facing in Laikipia is because the police cannot do anything? We know very well that it is we politicians who went and incited those young boys to go and take land because they have decided that the lease is over.

• 28 Mar 2017 in Senate: i: Yes Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. It is a serious allegation and my leader – because he is going to be the next President of this country – should know the numbers of security forces correctly. When he says that the President lied about the ratio of police officers to Kenyans, then it is important that he tells Kenyans what our ratio is today so that Kenyans do not get confused. The young people who are employed are very many. Again we will start interrogating budgets and wondering who the ghost workers are. It is an issue that we need ... view
• 28 Mar 2017 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. While I agree with the Senate Minority Leader that the policeman who gave him information will be sacked, that is a public office and I believe the Inspector General(IG) should now give the figures. The Senate Minority Leader cannot tell the country that we will not get the figures right since he has the right figures that we cannot get it from the IG. We need to substantiate those figures and facts. We will get it without having the policeman who gave him information being named. This is a very serious ... view
• 28 Mar 2017 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Is the Senate Minority Leader in order to bring the issue of standard gauge railway up when we know that the standard gauge railway of Kenya and the standard gauge railway of Ethiopia have a very big difference? Our standard gauge railway line is of a higher quality than Ethiopia’s. It is wrong to compare the terrain of Ethiopia and Kenya yet we know that we have had to take care of our wildlife and that is why it is more expensive. It is generally wrong to tell Kenyans on the ... view
• 28 Mar 2017 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I have listened to the Senate Minority Leader and I think some of his allegations are not true. In Ethiopia, the Government does not pay for the land. It only allocates itself land to do their SGR line. In our country, we have to pay for land. That accounts for the cost of constructing a railway line in both countries.. Having said that, is he in order to say it is the sons of the rich who concentrate on deals? The truth of the matter is that it is the politicians ... view
• 28 Mar 2017 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, on a point of order. Is the Senate Minority Leader in order to allege that the Jubilee Government has abandoned Vision 2030, knowing very well they have been complaining that we have been concentrating on projects which they started while serving in the Grand Coalition Government? In fact, the Jubilee Government is focused and committed to Vision 2030. Are you in order to tell Kenyans that what we are doing are not your projects but other things? view
