• 25 Nov 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we need to think more deeply about the issue raised by Sen. Kembi-Gitura. Should you find that the Senate Minority Leader cannot issue a statement on behalf of the Government, then it means we should also The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 25 Nov 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I do not know whether this is a departure from the normal practice. The Senator has laid the Papers and in the same breath, given notice of Motion. That should have come under a different Order – Order No.6. Under what circumstances was he giving notice of Motion under Order No.5? Could you throw him out? view

• 25 Nov 2015 in Senate: Thank you Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I would like to thank the Deputy Speaker for moving this House to adjourn. I rise to strongly support his Motion. Allow me to welcome the Pope to the great Republic of Kenya. How I wish that the Pope had enough time not just to be in Nairobi, but to also make his way to Mukumu where the oldest mission of the Catholic Church is with its rich history and how Catholicism has grown not just in western Kenya but in the rest of the country. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the Pope is a ... view
• 25 Nov 2015 in Senate: Thank you Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I was just saying that the Pope should remember to pray for the economic terrorists. We love peace and people cannot be expected to be peaceful when they are hungry and live in abject poverty. We want to appeal to the President - I was glad to hear that he is a Catholic like me - to extend the fight against bad governance not just through pronouncements at State speeches but into actual practice. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, finally, as we prepare to go to State House this afternoon, I want to remind the ... view
• 25 Nov 2015 in Senate: Thank you Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. It is precisely because of this kind of attitude that, may be, time for prayer has come. They say: The more things change, the more they remain the same. Some of us remember during the many years of the struggle, a politician from the young Senator’s community saying in Nakuru that anybody who will be seen lifting two fingers, those fingers will be chopped off. Power is even starting to get into her head as early as now. view
• 25 Nov 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I was actually concluding on the important issue of protocol at Kasarani Stadium. If we are going to State House to be humiliated, then we better not go. Since the Government is in the habit of humiliating leaders, as evidenced by the incident where I was humiliated at home, I had to say it so that they know that I am going to our State House and not the home of the President. I beg to support. view
• 24 Nov 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Allow me to congratulate you for standing your ground. By the very meaning and wording of that Bill, “Parliamentary Powers and Privileges”, it indicates clearly that “Parliament” refers to the Senate and the National Assembly. Secondly, allow me to laud and congratulate the Speaker of the National Assembly because he changed his mind. It is only fools who do not change their minds. That the Speaker of the National Assembly has changed his mind, we must congratulate him and allow him all the time to be exercising events and matters in his ... view
• 24 Nov 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to give Notice of the following Motion:- THAT, this House adopts the report of the Mediation Committee on the County Governments (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bill No.1 of 2014) laid on the Table of this House on Wednesday, 18th November, 2015. view
• 24 Nov 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is on the record of this House that senior management at the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) usually ignores advice from the experts working at the CBK. Could the Vice Chairperson table copies of minutes of the two meetings that gave a clean bill of health to the bank? Secondly, could he also table the expert opinion that must have informed the board meeting prior to the decision to give the bank a clean bill of health? I say this remembering that when Kenya lost Kshs1.8 billion, through printing of new currency notes, senior managers and ... view
