• 23 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank you and draw the attention of the Senate to what the Chairman of the Council of Governors said when this business was transacted on the Floor. He is quoted as having said that the issue of pending bills was imaginary and that it was politics being pursued by some of the Senators who are their potential opponents. I would like the Chair to make it clear to the Chairman of the Council of Governors that matters of oversight are not being done in anticipation of the competition that is likely to be ... view

• 23 Mar 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Allow me to ride on the Statement. The moment NLC started compensating people elsewhere - those of us who are also on the same line - it has raised a lot of anxiety. Could the Chairman confirm that as we wait to prepare the potential beneficiaries on our part of Kenya, the rail will after reaching Nakuru, proceed to Eldoret and Malaba border to dispel rumours that this route has been cancelled and the rail will pass through Narok and end up at Lake Victoria in Kisumu? It is important that ... view

• 23 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to applaud the petitioners because this is an important matter. It reminds me of 1998 when the late former Vice President, Michael Kijana Wamalwa, led us to a rally in Lwandanyi over this same matter. We were actually attacked with bows and arrows because people misread our mission. When the location was then removed from Bungoma,` the local residents thought that we went there to support that position of the Government, which they did not support. They resisted us and after settling, an old man told us that there had been an attempt through ... view
• 23 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am glad to hear that the Chairman had promised that there would be a waiver of fees. The trouble with many schools in the former Western Region is that the former owners of some of the pieces of land are individuals. In Trans Nzoia County, for example, a farmer who had 50 acres of land could have given out five acres to a primary school. At Malinya in Ikolomani, there are villagers who have given land to Malinya Primary School. Could the Chairman extend that waiver to include all fees, from fees for succession and ... view

• 23 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it is important that the rules of this House be followed. According to what Sen. Murkomen has just said and the HANSARD will bear me out, he was attempting to move the House under Standing Order No. 54 (3). That Standing Order is very clear that:- “Despite paragraph 2, the Speaker may, on the request of a Senator defer”. The Senator for Elgeyo-Marakwet has not made any request. He has just said:- “According to Standing Order No. 54 and it has been the tradition of this House”. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, because of his youthfulness, allow ... view
