• 27 Oct 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, with benefit of hindsight; in the National Assembly before Parliament became bicameral, what is today Statements in the Senate, was Question Time in the National Assembly. We developed a culture of Members riding on Statements because the answer will not be brought by the Minister. It will be brought by the Chairman of the Committee. So, Senators in anticipation of possible supplementary questions, would then ride on the Statement. When the Committee now presents what transpired here, it includes the questions that rode over that Statement. With that, the answer is comprehensive. I have been sitting ... view
• 27 Oct 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am asking this House. If the Statements on today’s Order Paper are five; and the required time of one hour comes to pass and you are on Statement No. 3, you just carry the rest forward to the next day.

We would like our children to know that they do not come from a remote area, but one which is far away from Nairobi. view

• 27 Oct 2022 in Senate: So, when she increases her own things, how then does it sit with this law which exactly refuses that? That is the same lady walking on the pedestrial of integrity, when she is the same person who was commanded to release money that was not budgeted for by Parliament to MCAs, so that they could vote for Building Bridges Initiative (BBI).
