• 8 Nov 2022 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you heard the Senator for Nairobi City County talk of demons being chased away. I want to confirm that those demons are on the other side, they do not belong to this side. view
• 27 Oct 2022 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 27 Oct 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is not really a point of order. I just want to seek your direction in this matter. You indicated that you want to discourage Members commenting on Statements because it takes a lot of time. Instead, Members should be encouraged to appear in those Committees.

• 27 Oct 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I used to chair the Committee Delegated Legislation in the National Assembly. History repeats itself. There was a time when the former Chair of the SRC, Mrs. Serem, behaved in a similar manner. The Gazette Notice that changed the entitlement of Members came before my Committee at that time.

At that time, my Committee annulled the Gazette Notice which is a Statutory Instrument. The Committee on Delegated Legislation has powers to annul that particular Statutory Instrument. view
• 27 Oct 2022 in Senate: Even before removing the Chair--- view
• 27 Oct 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, even before we think of removing the Chair, which I think should be an option, this Committee has the power to annul that Gazette Notice. This Committee has the power to annul that Kenya Gazette Notice on the basis of it being unconstitutional. Chapter Six of the Constitution deals with national values. That Chapter requires every State officer not to do anything in his or her responsibility that is unconstitutional. Anything infringing on the rights of a citizen, Members of this House, or the other House is unconstitutional. I, therefore, support the Statement by our colleague. view
