2 Dec 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I laud the statement by the Senator for Busia County. It reminds me that in my other life, when I was in charge of the Association for Family Planning of Kenya, as the medical in charge, I used to operate in Busia District Hospital.

2 Dec 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I have lived several lives, including the one of bull fighting. It saddens me that just a few years ago, when I was working at that hospital, it was the preferred hospital not only to the people of Busia but to even Ugandans. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, today when the health docket is being managed by the governor together with Dr. Maurice Simiyu, a highly qualified doctor, it is sad that this county government of Busia is unable to work with medical personnel. It reminds us of how in this same county, 20 children were paralyzed ...

2 Dec 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, this Statement is signed by the Cabinet Secretary (CS), James Macharia. He was in this Chamber fielding questions from Senators. I recall that we raised the issue of the Kshs38 billion that was used by the Jubilee Government and the President announced that specialised medical equipment had been acquired. Amongst the equipment were beds for the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). I request that you direct further that the Committee does not seek for answers, but we forward these questions to the CS to come and face us squarely. When he comes, I would like him to ...

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. We have spoken strongly on issues of corruption before. I want to assure Sen. Elachi that when the CS comes, I will face him and prove that the money was siphoned.

2 Dec 2015 in Senate:
On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Listening to the debate that has been going on in the last few minutes, it is clear that the House has converged. Could I request that you call upon the Mover to respond?

2 Dec 2015 in Senate:
On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. The Vice Chairperson is doing very well, but since this is an inquisitorial matter, it is not just a question of us joining in debates. We would like to hear more. She says that Dr. Ayisi confirmed to them that he was not given the results of the DNA, and it is that DNA that will determine who the parents of these babies are. Could she go further and tell us what stopped Parliament from obtaining the DNA results?

2 Dec 2015 in Senate:
On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. The Mover has moved the Motion and the intention of the Senate being involved in this matter was that we wanted to get to the bottom of the fact that the parenthood of these children is in doubt. The turning point is the DNA. They have not told us what the laboratory said. They only reached---

1 Dec 2015 in Senate:
On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. As you notice, this statement was being given on my request. There is an important issue of procedure where the Chair should direct. The Committee’s problem is not the content, it is the fact that the information given as a statement from the County of Kakamega is not authenticated, the Governor has not owned it, and nobody has signed it. So, there has to be a clear direction. The people at the County Government of Kakamega should know that this information is needed urgently. I have a copy of the statement.
