• 29 Jun 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise under Standing Order No.224, which reads:- “The total time on the Order “Petitions” shall not exceed 30 minutes”. I notice that from the time that we began, it is now 34 minutes later. Could you confirm whether Standing Order No.224 still has force in this House? view
• 29 Jun 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, looking at the list presented by the Vice Chair, the following comes out; that jubilee leaning counties have the lowest balance of schools that require to be connected. Examples are as follows: Embu County has 100 per cent connectivity, in Kirinyaga County only one school lacks power and in Kiambu, only two schools lack power. Now, let us go to Kakamega. In Kakamega, 58 schools do not have power. That is according to that table. With the high population in primary schools in Kakamega, this translates to 40,600 pupils being denied power that is paid for by ... view
• 29 Jun 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. It is because of time constraints. The table is very clear; it shows the number of schools connected per county, out of the 22,000 and the remaining schools that are yet to be connected in every county. Let me give two examples of CORD-leaning counties and three examples of Jubilee- leaning counties. On the Jubilee side, the balance of schools in Embu is zero, one in Kirinyaga and two in Kiambu. In Kakamega there are 58 primary schools; 29 primary The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes ... view
• 29 Jun 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to appeal to you to prevail upon Senators, at least on matters of equity, to speak for themselves. If Murang’a County has got only five schools waiting for power, they have every reason to congratulate the Jubilee Government. However, if Kakamega County has got 58 pending schools, I have every reason to--- view
• 29 Jun 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, can you control these Senators so that they listen to me? view
• 28 Jun 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish to ride on that very important question and request the Chairperson to also include in his statement the per county distribution of the promotions that were done in the last two episodes. view
• 28 Jun 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, did you hear Sen. Wangari claim and allege that we are all in Government? How can we, the distinguished Senators on the CORD side of this country, be part of this corrupt Government? A Government that shortchanges Kenyans in appointments! How can we be part of it? We are the opposition, the official opposition against this Government. view
• 28 Jun 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. While I was consulting Sen. (Prof.) Anyang'-Nyong'o on a matter of pending Bills, the Chairperson of the Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations has responded to my Statement and I have no problem with it. I will wait until next week. However, I would like you to allow me to request the Chairperson to communicate to the Inspector-General (IG) that the police officer who shot Mr. Apwoka, the boda-boda rider is still in Kakamega County. They have moved him from Kakamega Police Station to Malaika Police Station in Ikolomani. It is ... view
• 28 Jun 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I thought I should not ask for too much. Ordinarily, speaking as a Senator in Kenya, I should be demanding that this police officer be dismissed forthwith. However, because sometimes the voice of the poor is not always heard, I have said that even if they want to retain him, why do they not move him out of Kakamega County? He is now meeting our children as they go to school when he has killed their father. See how painful it is to us. We are demanding that he leaves Kakamega County ... view
• 28 Jun 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is true, I appreciate that I am completely out of order. As they say in French; voix des dieu vou la voix de pauvres. Which means --- view
