These are people who have allowed fairness to thrive. If America was not a country of opportunity, our girl would not have been given a chance. Very briefly, I want to congratulate the young lady because at one stage she was quoted as having dedicated her success to the late Prof. Nyong’o who was her uncle. I have a small thing to share from there because the late Prof. Nyong’o ... view

• 4 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we adjourned when I was registering my tributes to the heros and heroines of the struggle for the second liberation. I had reached the name of Dr. Chivule Wa Tsuma. I wanted to include hon. Koigi wa Wamwere, the former Prime Minister, hon. Raila Odinga, hon. James Orengo and hon. Charles Rubia.

• 4 Mar 2014 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. He has taken five minutes and the other Senator took three minutes of my time. I beg you, because I want to state my case, to allow me eight more minutes to cater for them. view
• 4 Mar 2014 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Now that the former Attorney-General was attempting to inform me, he forced me to go back to my notes. I have discovered that the case of the late Wallace Gichere was case No.1235 of 2002. So, the Attorney-General who was opposing him was none other than Amos Wako. Since I am speaking from the Floor of the Senate, if you looked at the experience of South Africa, people went and apoloigised to others. Therefore, if we want to heal this country, we, the leaders, using the privileges that we enjoy when we go wrong, where ... view

• 4 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, they are eating into my time. I want to request colleagues that you will have time to contribute. You can then bring those issues. But if it may serve you, the same Report that you are referring to has been rejected. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to read to you a statement from the Judge about Wallace. The Judge said:- “He may have died without winning compensation that he so hard sought. But Gichere has left a legacy of a fighting spirit that was not cowed by the might of State machinery.” Mr. Speaker, Sir, you will ... view
• 4 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I think that if you had heard me keenly, I said: “Might not know.” Not everybody reads history; probably others read Medicine and so on.
