• 19 Jun 2013 in Senate: President Obama was elected for different reasons. With all due respect, Sen. David Musila, I know you know these things. He was not elected because of his management of public funds. This experience in the US, where the President almost was threatened with impeachment because he was being seen to be playing with public funds is an experience that we could draw from and say, maybe for the time being, we could limit this to the Government creating the framework the way the distinguished Senator has put it in the first part of his Motion, the business of committing funds ... view
• 19 Jun 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Indeed, hon. Wetangula is my elder brother and knows me better than that. He knows that besides bull fighting, I also sell at a very high cost my intellectual property; namely, my surgical skills and capacity to make prescriptions. I sell them and--- view
• 19 Jun 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is for those very many reasons that however innovative this Motion is that we should hold our horses and not be seen to be asking an economist to discharge VAT on bread, githeri, Ugali or bushuma, to be asked to take money to blue chip companies that declare profits in tens of billions. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to oppose. view
• 18 Jun 2013 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I wish to congratulate my senior colleague in the medical profession, Dr. Machage for this visionary Motion. In supporting this Motion, I want to start by bringing to the attention of my colleague Senators and the rest of the country that what Sen. (Dr.) Machage is attempting to achieve and what we seem to be all united behind, is actually an admission that the Government of Kenyatta, the Government of Moi and the Government of Kibaki failed us. We can have all the 47 Level 5 hospitals, but it would not change the status of health in ... view
• 18 Jun 2013 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I think what he has just said passes for a point of information. But if, indeed, it is not the Jubilee Government’s choice, then how come it was the Cabinet Secretary of the Jubilee Government who tabled those budgetary estimates in the House? If he is confirming that it is not the Jubilee Government, then, please, tell them to go and find that devil that is introducing this plan in the economy of this country because it is not in any way beneficial to Kenyans. But I thank him for the information. Madam Temporary Speaker, I would ... view
• 18 Jun 2013 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I think with due respect to my friend, he knows what we normally do when we meet at Kwa Njuguna . I am a Christian too. I was assuming that being a Christian like him, what I was doing, he was also doing the same. With all due respect! Madam Temporary Speaker, this condemnation of doctors will discourage doctors. Senators should be aware that it might be you who will be the patient and the doctor will say: “I am not going to go all out of my way, I will wait when the best environment is ... view
• 13 Jun 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank Sen. Haji for the seriousness he has given this matter because as the Senate is aware, there was an attempt to address the same issue elsewhere hurriedly. I would like the Chairman of the Committee to give us a comparative cost of what it would have cost the taxpayer if the delegation of the Deputy President had chosen to use commercial flights. Kenyans know that we have continental flights, especially by Kenya Airways, that fairly connect all the capitals of Africa. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A ... view
