• 18 Mar 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Is the Senate Minority Leader in order to say that the Jubilee Government is boring Kenyans, yet he has been in the same system? Is he in order to say that the Jubilee Government is boring, yet we have said that it is a discussion? Let Kenyans discuss and see whether, indeed, we need to deal with the wage bill. view
• 18 Mar 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. While we appreciate the Senate Minority Leader’s sentiments, since night travel by buses was stopped, we have not seen any accident. But very soon we shall--- view
• 18 Mar 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I think that we need to look at the interest of this country. I think it will be wrong to say that we are misleading the country when, indeed, we are trying to deal with issues. There was no ban. view
• 18 Mar 2014 in Senate: Is the hon. Senator in order to say that I am misleading the House by saying that there was no ban? All we decided is that if you follow the regulations, you will be able to travel at night. view
• 18 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I want to state that I support this report. I want to look at this report today as a Kenyan. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, in support of this report, as a Kenyan, I am very disturbed. We used to do all this work with the former Ministers.

We would like to see this process of tendering being done above board so that we do not end up in a murky situation. We do not want to end up in a murky process that was carried out during the Tenth Parliament by the said former Ministers. The murky processes we are fighting were done eight years ago if you are to go by this report. One then wonders why nobody among them was ... view
• 18 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, he was in charge of that Ministry. Let us be very honest to one another. view
• 18 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, let me move on. The Senator for Kakamega is the one who confirmed that. That is how the conversation began. As I finalise, I would like to say two things. There is a worrying issue in Mombasa which the Committee should look at. Since we do not want to hear these things as rumours, it would be important for them to investigate whether the railway station is still working or whether soon; it will become a car bazaar. With regard to the issue of marine services, we need to ask ourselves whether we have invested enough and ... view
• 13 Mar 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. It would be wrong to digress from the whole issue and start talking about the youth. I do not know what the Member really wanted because I did not concentrate on the conversation. But since I was close, to be very honest, he showed us 8,000 short messages (sms). For the rest, I do not want to be involved. view
