21 Apr 2016 in Senate:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to agree with the Majority Leader that we have many con artists in Kenya who will want to take advantage of an attempt to register new the IDPs. Since you already have 75,00 households, could he confirm to us how much they intend to pay them and when they are going to make that payment? Secondly, the people who became IDPs and lost land; that land was not lost. The land is still there. So, unless the Government wants to promote impunity and gloss over criminal activities, could the Majority Leader tell us when ...

Yes, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It was not against Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo, but Sen. Ndiema. Is the Senator in order to try and sneak through the Floor of the House a lie that has been the reason why people, especially from my community, who live in Trans-Nzoia, have been attacked during every general election, by claiming that they were settled on pieces of land by the colonialists? I congratulate you for stopping him from going that way. If we allow that kind of talk to be part of the The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information ...

21 Apr 2016 in Senate:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I join my colleagues in lauding colleagues for keeping time, being here and working so well this morning. This just goes to confirm that the two Houses can actually work together. I hope the Members of the National Assembly are noting the significance of this House being almost a full House. I urge colleagues that since we are having hiccups in the working of the two Houses, we must all be united in saying that we can make it better. We have an opportunity through the Okoa Kenya Initiative of the referendum. I appeal to all ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, forgive me for going too far left. However, I have sent my message; that it will be hypocritical for Senators who are seeing the petty and childish frustrations not to support an initiative that gives the country an opportunity to perfect the working of the two Houses. Having passed this Bill that is right at the heart of the President, I know that Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki and the Speaker, Hon. Ethuro, will rush to State House to present to him for assent. I urge them that when they go there, they should greet him and tell ...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, could the Chairman table in this House the loans given to members of staff and directors of the NBK as well as a list of all the people owing that bank huge loans of Kshs10 million and above?

21 Apr 2016 in Senate:
Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, assist me to get the attention of the Chairperson. Equally important, I would like the Chairperson to prevail upon the Chairman. The fact that he is a financial expert does not mean that the rest of us who might be laymen in that field are ignorant. Information which he is withholding from me is now---

21 Apr 2016 in Senate:
Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the information that he is trying to shield me from accessing is in possession of the Government. The supreme law which is the Constitution says in Article 34 that every citizen has the right of access to any information held by the State. Therefore, you are now advancing the same lie that was used by the Governor of the CBK in denying the---

Yes, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. He is advancing the same misguided strategy that was used by the Governor of the CBK who wants to shield corruption that was perpetuated through Eurobond in the same way that we want to reject corruption that is being perpetuated---
