• 14 Feb 2017 in Senate: Sen. Kipchumba Murkomen, the Senator for Elgeyo Marakwet County. view
• 14 Feb 2017 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, these are very serious issues. Maybe that is why there was wisdom in some constitutions where we borrowed some ideas, where they specified that Senators must be of a specific age. However, I do not want to go there. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, on the strength of this Floor of the House, I want to demand of the Jubilee Government, to demand of the President to govern this country and govern it properly. He has an opportunity in so doing by releasing our doctors now. If the President is looking for people to jail, he has ... view
• 14 Feb 2017 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am so guided. view
• 14 Feb 2017 in Senate: A bad lawyer. view
• 14 Feb 2017 in Senate: Thank you Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for your ruling. I want to emphasize to the public who Sen. Murkomen is struggling to ensure that they do not hear me. The Constitution demands that I be heard especially on the Floor of this House. The same public has heard and has seen the President free petty offenders under this Constitution. The same public is aware of Article 133 that gives the President power to look at a sentence like the one that was meted out yesterday, to either suspend it conditionally or unconditionally or cancel it altogether so long as he ... view
• 14 Feb 2017 in Senate: Thank you Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I do not know why you are not my substantive Speaker. You get it so well. As we put the country on notice of the fact that it is President Uhuru Kenyatta to blame, I want it to be forever clear that this blame must be apportioned appropriately. There is blame on the national Government but there is even greater blame on the Council of Governors (CoG). Health, for God’s sake is a function under the new Constitution which is fully devolved! I therefore ask; how and why I would want to be a ... view
• 14 Feb 2017 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, there is also need for us as Parliament to address the long-term solution to this. It has now become evident that we must amend the Constitution through parliamentary initiative which can take a mere one week. Through that initiative, we can create the Health Workers Service Commission that will manage matters of employment, transfer, promotion and salary increment of health workers. The balance of events; provision of drugs, construction and maintenance of institutions and payment of casual workers in those institutions be the responsibilities of the governors. If we do not do that, the ... view
• 14 Feb 2017 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. As I conclude, I would like to state that the governors can run but they cannot hide. We are going to catch up with them. The governors and Principal Secretary for Health, Dr. Muraguri, are the ones supposed to be arraigned in court; not our doctors. They should be arraigned in court and charged with crimes against humanity because the patients who have died over all these weeks that they have allowed the doctors not to be on duty are dying because of diseases that are treatable. Dr. Muraguri is criminal number one. I ... view
• 14 Feb 2017 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, on a point of information. view
