• 17 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you heard the Chairman tell me that the people I complained that are now resettling back into the Mau Forest, are not the same ones who were evicted. I would like the following clarification; first, is it, therefore, acceptable that new people should come to resettle? 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
• 17 Mar 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. When you will be making that communication and consideration with regard to what the Senate Minority Leader has said, I would like you to make this a bit clearer. I took one of the Bills that you communicated to us to be one of them. You will recall that you communicated to us about the Order of Precedence and Titles Bill (Senate Bill No.11 of 2014). I have since gone through the work that took place in the National Assembly regarding this. I also remembered that this House, in the year 2013, ... view
• 17 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like you to consider standing down Order No.8 view
• 17 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I wish to associate myself with the pain the County Government of Mandera is going through, especially the Governor and the Senator. Maj. (Rtd) Nkaissery and Mr. Boinett have been given jobs; so what? The issue is corruption in the armed forces; the military, the police and NIS. That is the reason lives are being lost in Mandera and other parts of the country. Corruption is leading to the destruction of a community called the Somali in this country. If people do not know, corruption is going to make sure that Somalis will be begging to ... view
• 17 Mar 2015 in Senate: He did not withdraw it the way he said it. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, he knows who they are because he wants to send elders to talk to them. We are not going to allow Kenyans, even if they are not from our communities, to be exposed to danger because of the utterances of reckless politicians. view
• 17 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, because my time is running, the final point is that the highly ranked advisor of the President on matters of security, is the Chief of Kenya Defence Forces (KDF), Gen. Karangi. The question that I keep on asking myself is; this is a highly trained, experienced and patriotic Kenyan, what advice does he give the President? Why is he not telling the President that having succeeded the way they did when they entered into Somalia, they have to rethink it? The core business of the KDF is not to go and protect Somalis in Somalia. Their ... view
• 12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir for giving me a chance to join my colleagues in appreciating Prof. Micere Mugo. When I joined the University of Nairobi in 1982, one of the first things I went through was a lecture at Taifa Hall . Thereafter, we assembled in the prep-court. Prof. Micere Mugo was one of the lecturers who welcomed us into the university and shortly after there was a coup and many of us were discontinued from the university. There is one thing that Micere Mugo said to Cable News Network (CNN) when she was asked where her home was. ... view
• 12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in half a minute, I will have finished all the awards because it is important that they go on record. view
• 12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am proud to be associated with her. Thank you for awarding me the opportunity. view
• 11 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to thank you for that good answer to my concerns. But noting that the Kenya National Audit Office (KENAO) is practically the expert arm of Parliament that enables us to do accurate oversight, I have further taken action and held a meeting with the Auditor-General. He has confirmed that the main reason he is unable to beat this deadline is because of insufficient funding. What are you doing as the Speaker of the Senate specifically, given that unless you have audited accounts, then this Senate cannot oversight the devolved governments? What are you doing given ... view
