• 4 Oct 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for your indulgence. The issue raised by the Chair of CPISFC and by the Senator for Kiambu County who is also a Member of CPISFC is monumental. They need to make a formal submission to the House so that this House can assist them. I remember in the 11th Parliament, the former Governor for Kakamega County applied the same tactics and never appeared before this House. Thank God that his file has now been handed over to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI). It was handed over by the Ethic and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) ... view
• 3 Oct 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker Sir. Indeed, this was a great experience in many ways; our own way of life, how people earn their own livelihood, but more importantly, the role of the Senate to county governments. Whereas everything that we did went on in a seamless manner, I see an opportunity for us to improve. It looks seems like a misapplication of resources, if we shall be going to counties to replicate what we do in Nairobi. At the end of the day, we end up talking to ourselves. I am of the opinion that, Plenary should not be part ... view
• 3 Oct 2023 in Senate: , then if we must go as Plenary, we could have Plenary on the last day. Reports can then be tabled, and we come back to Nairobi. As you saw, when we left, the people of Turkana County, and rightfully so, told us that we never talked to them. We ended up talking to ourselves. If we were to go the committee way, then we would avoid that kind of critique. I would like a situation where the people of Sports when you come to Kakamega--- view
• 3 Oct 2023 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank you for that communication. I also congratulate Sen. Orwoba for her humility because before that order, she has been observing the decisions of this House. That said Mr. Speaker, Sir, could you clarify to whom that order was directed? view
• 3 Oct 2023 in Senate: To my understanding and you will correct me, you have been asked by the courts, as the Speaker of the Senate. Allow me to remind you that it was never your decision. It was the decision of the Plenary that can only be vacated when a Motion is moved. The court has purported to serve you. In the absence of a Motion that received the majority support of the House to rescind that decision, where does our good Speaker find it possible to implement that court order that is apparently limited to him? view
• 3 Oct 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I wish to add my voice to the comments pertaining to the land in Pumwani. I urge the Committee to take this matter very seriously. It is about time Kenyans realize that not every Kenyan can own a piece of land. Two, Kenyans must subject themselves to the provisions of the Constitution which in this matter in the Constitution of Kenya were handed over to the National Land Commission (NLC) and not to the Senate of Kenya. If Kenyans have gone to the NLC and have not got what they wanted, they should not fall ... view
• 3 Oct 2023 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. view
• 3 Oct 2023 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, Sen. Mungatana is one of the ranking Members is this House and he is moving a Motion which is different from the one that we have on the Order Paper. Could we be guided on why the Motion reads seven days and he is moving a Motion that reads 14 days? view
• 3 Oct 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. The House will recall that we were part of the team that envisaged the creation of this ad hoc Committee. It gives me a lot of pleasure to see that this Committee was necessary. Now that the Committee is coming at the tail end of its good work and knowing that the problem, which was at 97 bodies at that time has grown to over 400 bodies, we should allow the Committee two weeks for it to have a comprehensive report. I support. view
• 3 Oct 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Allow me in supporting this Motion to use the opportunity to congratulate “my sister” kiveti Sen. Kavindu Muthama. When she started this initiative, little did she know that the industry was going to catapult her right to the top of the imaginations, not only of many Kenyans, but indeed of the world. This was not a Kenyans problem. It was twin bombing that happened in Dar es Salaam and the one here in Nairobi. The rest of the world was rocked by this kind of unreasonableness of people who had lost their minds. I, ... view
