• 24 Sep 2014 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I want to join my colleagues in registering my compliments to the Chair of the Committee, Sen. (Dr.) Zani, and her entire team for this great Report. I want to assure her that if she manages to push this Motion through and do further consultations, this might very well be the biggest contribution that she might ever make to the economy of this country in her entire life, because this is very important. I am glad to note that in this Report, in the executive summary, the Committee tells us that during their visits, they ... view
• 24 Sep 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. Earlier in the afternoon, Sen. Henry ole Ndiema, the Senator for Trans Nzoia had indicated to me that he was not convinced that we would reach this business. So, he left on the assumption that there was too much business ahead of him. He had indicated that he would want to move the Motion next week. I do not know how you will decide. I beg that you defer the Motion, because he had actually talked to me and I had come here to second it. I have an interest in this ... view

• 23 Sep 2014 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 23 Sep 2014 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Standing Order under which you have quoted the message from the County Assembly of Nairobi City County does not provide that we comment on the matter. But it has been our tradition that whenever a Member of this House or the lower House has faced challenges of security, we have always given it the seriousness it deserves. In view of that, I seek for your indulgence; that you allow me to observe that the issue of security is not only limited to the threats faced by the MCAs. Indeed, as late as yesterday, the life of ... view
• 23 Sep 2014 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am sorry my system has a problem. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the issue raised by my sister Senator here from Kakamega is so serious that while we were on recess, I did realize as a layman that court injunctions could be dished out the way a parent dishes out popcorn to kindergarten children, or the way hotdogs are dished out at a restaurant when children are on a picnic. It is very sad that on serious matters, where there is actual evidence from the Auditor-General, Governors have chosen to face the country on podiums from various parts ... view
• 23 Sep 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The reason why sometimes some of us get angry and we are swayed into commenting on some of the issues that the “sky team” of Jubilee specializes in; it is because of the high levels of poverty. Even the former beautiful Elgeyo-Marakwet that used to be, the Kericho that was a very nice place to live in, today these areas are just as poor as Ikolomani, Kabuchai and the traditional Teso areas of Luhya land. The leaders of this country must say “no”. My colleagues, I tell you, the sword will cut you. We will ... view
• 23 Sep 2014 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I hear three points. The first one is that Sen. Sang would like a confirmation that his Governor has not prevented my Committee from summoning him. I have a copy of that court order which was signed on 18th and issued by Lady Justice M. Ngugi. The first defendant is all the Governors represented by the Council of Governors. So, yours is included. The second one is Dr. Alfred Mutua, enjoined by Patrick Khaemba of Kitale, Ahmed Abdalla Mohammed of Wajir, Wycliff Opranya of Kakamega, James Omariba Ongwae and finally another non-existence Governor called Martin Nyaga Wambora. ... view
• 23 Sep 2014 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I request that you allow me to apologize; but to withdraw so that it is no longer part of the HANSARD is to assume that what is going on today is not happening. The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has already written to Parliament asking what is going on about the issue that I have spoken about. Maybe, I should just apologize to any colleague who might think I referred to him, for example, the young Murkomen who thought I am looking at him. This thing is much bigger than we might be thinking about. Allow me ... view
