• 16 Jun 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker Sir. You heard the distinguished Sen. Ong’era challenge me. She wanted to know whether I am aware that some newspaper advertised. I have two points to make especially this afternoon when we have visitors from our county assemblies. Is she in order to leave the impression that this House is run by newspapers and media houses? Further to that, is she aware that even if this House was to accept to admit that newspaper advertisement, it is null and void until and unless the vacancies have been gazetted in the Kenya Gazette?

• 16 Jun 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, just a small one. Under our Constitution, it is only Madam Amadi, the Registrar of Judiciary, who could have requested the Government Printer, either directly or through somebody else, that this gazettement be done. The Chairman has just disclosed that there were two such requests. That is exactly what I was pointing to; dark forces. Could the Chairman disclose who this second person is? Finally, our biggest fear about the dark forces during this exercise is borne out of the fact that from 2013 appointments in public service have been attracting some form of ethnic affiliation with ... view

• 16 Jun 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise under Standing Order No.94 to be given an opportunity to make a comment on what the Chairman of the County Public Accounts and Investments has just said. I was in that meeting yesterday and so were several other Members who I can see are in Plenary this afternoon. Whereas I want to agree with the Chairman of the Committee that the conduct of Sen. Sonko was disorderly, if we must be honest and true to fact, the Senator of Nairobi was provoked. Sen. Sonko was provoked when he started being frustrated in making his contribution, ... view

• 16 Jun 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I request that you also guide our Committee. Since we, as a committee, have not sat to decide to extend apologies to the Governor of Nairobi County, are we, therefore, going to be seen to be apologising to the Governor even before we conclude the very investigation that Sen. Sonko is being accused of being disorderly? You should advise us very well on that one because we have a life outside the committees. We also have a political life outside this Senate. We can very well be misunderstood to be advancing an agenda that is supposed to ... view
