30 Sep 2015 in Senate:
The Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have made the first one. Secondly, we have a culture in this country when big people have been arrested, caught red handed; it goes through the courts until the case disappears. Can the Chair tell us the fate of the Deputy County Commissioners and the County Commissioners who were arrested and arraigned in court because of stealing money meant for the IDPs? What has become of all those cases? Finally, so that we bring our people together, we want the people in Nairobi to understand how other people dealt with this problem. In Kakamega, local ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, on Saturday, Sen. Muthama, the former Prime Minister and I, went to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) headquarters after Sen. Muthama had been summoned to go and record a Statement. The country should be shocked to hear that we found a written statement---

30 Sep 2015 in Senate:
Yes, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. We would like the Chairperson to clarify why when we went to the police station, we found that a charge sheet had already been prepared and the Senator was being asked to have his fingerprints taken when in fact, there was no complainant. Could the Chair confirm whether the complainant was one Anne Waiguru, the Cabinet Secretary or President Uhuru Kenyatta, whom the officers were telling us that Sen. Muthama had offended? Finally, could the Chairperson clarify whether certain sections of the Constitution that guarantee freedom of thought and expression have been suspended during the ...

Thank you Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I rise to Second this amendment and because this is a procedural matter, I will not have much to say apart from only one point, that Kenya Airways (KQ), you want to understand the pride of Africa---

30 Sep 2015 in Senate:
Thank you Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. One wants to appreciate the pride of Africa. When you board KQ from Amsterdam, Paris or Heathrow Airport, at that time you are usually home sick. When you see the tail of the beautiful Airbus, you cannot wait to board. Therefore, all of us should do what this Committee is doing; making sure that KQ remains airborne. KQ depends on pilots, it depends on aeronautical engineers, and it depends on a lot of human resource. I want to remind the Jubilee Government that the pilots and engineers of tomorrow are in primary and secondary ...

30 Sep 2015 in Senate:
Yes, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I request most respectfully, that you withhold the introduction because that does not amount to an introduction. It can only be an introduction after you have said who it is that you are introducing. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, there are two aspects about that pronouncement from the Chair. Indeed, the first one is that it goes to the record of this House that the school was here. This is a momentous occasion for these children who are present in the Public Gallery. When they come back here as Senators, 20 years from now, the HANSARD ...

29 Sep 2015 in Senate:
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. You have correctly guided us that we are about to exhaust the 30 minutes. However, in view of this unprecedented wisdom of a Kenyan coming up with a suggestion on legislation, could you use your powers under Standing Order No.1, to allow us to also ventilate, especially those who are way down the line---

29 Sep 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, once again, I would like to appeal to the House that at this stage, we are merely a conveyer belt. We are not entirely in control of the speed of churning out those reports. I just call for patience. As soon as we had that discussion here, I held a very lengthy discussion with Dr. Edward Ouko, the Auditor General and things looked good. So, be patient. In any case, even if it comes today, the Committee will not be able to work on all the reports at once. We have already started with the others ...
