• 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. Once the report came to the Floor of the House, they would contradict themselves. I will now move on to the issue of the railway line. view
• 18 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I do not want to be informed. view
• 18 Mar 2014 in Senate: I wish the Committee would take a step further. I have seen a few tenders being advertised in the newspapers. These are very huge tenders. 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
• 13 Mar 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Would I also be in order to ask for your guidance on whether the matter could be referred to the Committee for Finance to determine whether the issues being raised are substantive and how they can deal with them? view
• 12 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I also rise to support this Motion. When you look at the history of our disciplined forces, sometimes, we ask ourselves whether, indeed, we are willing to see them protect us or we are willing to engage them to know how to use the different ammunitions that they have in order to survive. I will give an example, when there was the issue of a haul of drugs in Mombasa and every police officer who had any link to the issue was assassinated. In one way or another, they were simply killed. There was a documentary ... view
• 11 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to move the following Motion:- THAT, pursuant to Standing Order No.18 and Article 107(1) (c) of the Constitution, the following Senators be elected to preside over the sittings of the Senate in the absence of the Speaker, the Deputy Speaker and Members of the Chairpersons Panel for the period 11th March to 20th March 2014; Sen. (Dr.) Machage and Sen. Mositet. Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is a straightforward Motion. I know with the work we have bestowed within your office, it will be very difficult to say that you can sit on the Chair the ... view
