• 14 Jul 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I thank you for all those messages. However, I would like to remind you that two weeks ago, I raised an issue concerning a message that this House was expecting from the “Lower House” and you promised that you will make a ruling. This was in connection with the appointment of the Governor of the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) which was done contrary to the provisions of the Central Bank of Kenya Act, Section 13(a) which specify that the appointment of the governor and the deputy governor shall be subjected to ... view

• 14 Jul 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I listen to Sen. Ntutu, it is clear that these are aspects in that requisition for a Statement concerning accounts which have already been audited. I want to confirm that on Thursday, the County Public Accounts and Investment Committee (CPAIC) will sit to determine the issues for which audit as already been done. On those ones, we will give the County Government of Narok priority so as to answer the Senator from Narok County expeditiously. However, you need to give further guidance on how we will deal with the issue of the theft that took place ... view
• 14 Jul 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have no objection. I will take the responses as he has stipulated. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 14 Jul 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Allow me to laud the Senator for Nandi for this very timely, thoughtful and well thought out Bill. Allow me to also encourage that adverse ruling that came from the High Court should not stop him there. You should study the ruling of the High Court so that we see how we can incorporate the criticism that was made by the Bench so as to enable that Board to continue. This is because whether we like it or not, we must create a forum whereby leadership can come and reflect on the projects and ... view
• 14 Jul 2015 in Senate: Sorry, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. In fact on the lighter side – forgive me for that – there is something going on on social media that there is notice of a demonstration in Nairobi of 5,000 people on 23rd who will be moving in our streets stark naked. They want to make a statement that people who doubt one’s sex can see on that day. So, these things are there. How amazing Nairobi will be. The people of Vihiga County can use this opportunity--- view
• 14 Jul 2015 in Senate: Thank you. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for making that ruling. I will tell you how the gender of a Luhya boy is determined. It is determined during circumcision whether you are either a man or a woman or transgender. You are treated differently during circumcision. The people of this country might want to remember that somebody invented Mpesa. How come a Kenyan invented Mpesa, he earns no royalties, nobody cares to even just recognize him and this has become the “in” thing. In fact, I was talking to an economist who told me that, to him, 20 years from now, ... view
• 14 Jul 2015 in Senate: is the main transport in the entire Republic of Kenya and it is the answer to unemployment to very many Kenyan youth. In Clause 16, we are being told that the governor can remove somebody posthumously. The Mover should not go that route because many of the beneficiaries will be politicians and they will be leaving a certain legacy. For example, if by happenstance and by good luck I was to make my way into the hall of fame, in Kakamega County, something which I highly doubt because sometimes I see the recipients of presidential The electronic version of the ... view
• 14 Jul 2015 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I withdraw and replace the words with what I actually meant. It was a slip of the tongue. What I meant is that young Halima was a classmate of my daughter, Cincy, at the university. So, she is trying to amuse Cincy wherever she is watching television. Concerning the serious point that you have raised, I withdraw. I meant good cooks. It is very difficult for a wife who is a politician to have time to be a good cook. view
• 14 Jul 2015 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I am very sorry for that. I withdraw and apologise. However, I blame it entirely on my colleague, Sen. Mugo, who once cooked githeri which smelled of smoke and nobody could eat it at home. view
