13 Oct 2016 in Senate:
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Allow me to ride on this very important requisition for a statement. I am privileged to be from the region where, originally, the IDPs who unfortunately found themselves in Uganda came from. They came from either Lwakhakha, Busia or Malaba. The Chairperson should explain and clarify to this House that since there is no record in Lwakhakha, Malaba or Busia of any property belonging to them – be it land or a shop – having been taken over by the locals, why are they finding it difficult to go back now that ...

13 Oct 2016 in Senate:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, the matter raised by the Chairman of the Committee on National Security and Foreign Affairs is extremely important. Just like the Tesos, we have some in Kenya and also in Uganda. We have the Masaai and Kuria in both in Kenya and Tanzania. We have Luhya in Kenya and others in Uganda. Why is the Government failing to see that the Makonde people of Tanzania are the same Makonde people of Kenya? The Constitution of Kenya at Article 15(2) reads:- “A person who has been lawfully resident in Kenya for a continuous period of at least seven ...

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I will in no way want to appear to challenge your ruling. I understand you. As you know, the tradition would be; when Order No. 8 was read out, the Speaker is not supposed to look for the Mover of the Motion. If it is resumption of debate, the Clerk advices the Speaker who had the Floor last time. Then if that person that had the Floor is not there, he forfeits that chance and allows somebody else to contribute. I am afraid that if we move otherwise, we shall be ...

12 Oct 2016 in Senate:
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. It sounds amusing. However, I am concerned that the Vice-Chairperson says that he might not agree with the Government’s position, but all the same, he will attempt to give an answer. In the record of political parties, there is an entry that Sen. Khaniri has since dropped membership to any party in this country. Is he still a Member of the Alliance that recommended him to become a member of a Committee and subsequently become a Vice-Chairperson? Could the Speaker guide us since the communication originated from the Office of the Speaker? ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is a pleasure to see, in the Speaker’s Gallery, eminent ladies from South Sudan. May I request them to convey my greetings to Hon. Kong who was the first Chairman of the Public Accounts Committee in the National Legislative Assembly of South Sudan, and I was privileged to train them. I hope that normalcy will be restored in the Republic of South Sudan. We have played a big role as good neighbours and brothers to make sure that the country stabilizes. My brother died in Juba just three months ago. He was there to train the ...

12 Oct 2016 in Senate:
Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. It is very disheartening to me, on behalf of the parents whose children got lost in Kakamega, for the Vice-Chairperson to tell us that the Government is not aware. Before I raised this matter, I was aware that for every disappearance, the parents went to the Assistant Chief, the Chief, the District Officer and the District Commissioner; they reported the missing children and gave details. In this list, we have the latest who is Biko Mukabwa the son of Benard Likhanga from Museno Sub-Location of Khayega Location in Shinyalu. I am aware of this because ...

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Categorically, the Chairperson is denying the possibility of the existence of a cartel within the forces that is aiding children to end up in Somalia. In view of the fact that Mr. Boniface Luvembe from Shinyalu ended up being arrested by the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) in Somalia and in view of the fact that Mr. Biko Mukabwa, who is not on this list rang the father and said, “Dad, I want to come home.” In view of the fact that in Kapenguria, a police officer, two months ago, killed ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you for your indulgence. I am afraid that I could be right because on these very children, reports have been made by their parents at the office of the assistant chief, the chief, the assistant county The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

12 Oct 2016 in Senate:
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Senate Deputy Majority Leader leads the business of the Jubilee Government in this House. What Jubilee is only clear about, especially in Nyanza, Ukambani, Coast and Western regions is that to get development you must go to Jubilee. Could he substantiate what has changed? You have indicated that in Embobut Ward, people are suffering and they are in Jubilee. In the next ward, people are suffering and they are in Jubilee. A clergy man said that women and children are sleeping in caves with snakes in your sub-county of Markwet and ...
