• 11 Feb 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Motion for two reasons. First, for once I have agreed with the Jubilee Coalition in realizing the obvious, that Sen. Sang is very competent in this House. Before I say my second reason, allow me to congratulate Sen. Murkomen for the dedication he demonstrated to the Standing Committee on Public Accounts and Investments, from which he has been removed. I wish him well as the Deputy Leader of Majority. view
• 11 Feb 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was acknowledging the departing of Sen. Murkomen from the Committee, but I am well guided. My second reason why I want to agree with the Jubilee Coalition and, in fact, congratulate them, is that ordinarily, Jubilee would have waited for by-election in Kericho to be concluded before doing the re-arrangement. This is a clear message to the people of Kericho that the Jubilee Coalition has conceded that it is Paul Sang of KANU who is going to win. I urge the people of Kericho to take a cue from this and come out in large numbers ... view
• 11 Feb 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Did you hear Sen. Wangari refer to Sen. Sang as a former hustler? The meaning of a hustler in English is somebody who earns from unfair and criminal activities. Is she in order to impute improper motives against Sen. Sang? Can she withdraw and apologize for calling him a hustler? view
• 10 Feb 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Order Communication from the Chair has just been called out. I was expecting that you would take advantage of this Order to do what we traditionally do in committees, which is actually a miniature of the Committee of the Whole. Whenever a Member comes late in the committee, he or she apologises and explains why he or she is late. According to the Standing Orders, this House starts at 2.30 p.m. The Order Paper is indicating that we should have started at 2.30 p.m. It is now 2.39 p.m. You came ... view
• 10 Feb 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, my point of order was not meant to be an affront to you. I am fully aware of the ruling you made on a similar point of order when I raised it in the last Session. You acquitted yourself very well and said that the three minutes you have been late included the time you started walking from the office up to here. However, this is a whooping seven minutes. Maybe there could be a better explanation so that the dignity of this House and the institution of Parliament is upheld. view
• 10 Feb 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank Sen. Khaniri for this very important request. It is important that the whole country knows especially the Senate which are these two hospitals in each county view
• 10 Feb 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. On this very important Statement, allow me to request further that the chairperson also tells the country, in this printing of the currency, what type of contract is being used? This is because the last Parliament was approached by the Government requesting that Parliament gives its concurrence so as to allow the Government go into a joint venture of printing currency with De La Rue of Great Britain. This was occasioned after a scandal of Kshs1.8 billion was discovered. Could he tell us under what arrangement currency is now being printed? Is ... view
• 10 Feb 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is true that I am a Member of the Committee. Through you, I wish to request the Senate Majority Leader to communicate this to the Chair of the Committee, because I have an interest having asked the question. view
• 10 Feb 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I feared conflict of interest. In that case, with your permission, I will communicate within the hour from now. I anticipate that this question could be answered within three weeks, because it is a very weighty issue. view
• 10 Feb 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the statement should also include a response to the concern of Kenyans whether the Government has ever done an audit on the fate of the property especially land that was owned by the IDPs. We would like to The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes view
