8 May 2013 in Senate:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, if a student spends Kshs500 a day and there are 10,000 such students, simple arithmetic says that Kshs5 million is spent in that town every day. So, how can Sen. Kagwe, a man I respect, pretend that he does he not know these things? How can Sen. Karaba, who is a former principal, pretend that he does not know these things? He was also a chair of the Departmental Committee on Education, Research and Technology in the Lower House. When we are discharging in this Senate, we must desist from defending archaic tribal interests. I do not ...

8 May 2013 in Senate:
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I want to thank you for your ruling. But in view of the fact that this morning, there is an intended service for our departed friend, Sen. Mutula, I am afraid that a few Senators might have taken the opportunity of attending the mass and it could affect the outcome of the vote. I, therefore, rise under Standing Order No.51(3) to request that the vote be deferred on this matter for that reason.

8 May 2013 in Senate:
Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to oppose this Motion. I want to start by thanking the Senate Leader of the Majority for putting my name, in the first place, in these committees. For the benefit of this House and the entire country, I never, ever, approached the Senate Majority Leader so as to have my name put in this Committee. When the Senate Majority Leader was purporting to be putting my names in these committees, my names were already in those committees anyway. The Senate Leader of the Majority circulated a form where he asked Senators to complete ...

8 May 2013 in Senate:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am very relevant. It is this experience that I use to persuade, beg and cajole colleague Senators to see the value of me being the Chair of the Finance, Commerce and Economic Affairs Committee.

Orengo, I have no regrets because of partly what Sen. Wetangula has said and the other part is what I am about to say: In the Committee of Agriculture, Lands ...

8 May 2013 in Senate:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would not therefore wish to dwell further on the difference between ethnicity and regionalism. Mr. Speaker, Sir, what offended me most as a believer in democracy is that Sen. Wako in the presence of the Senate Majority Leader, Sen. Wako, called me and told me that they are in a meeting with the Senate Majority Leader and other people. So, they wanted me to step down.
