• 19 Mar 2024 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I do not want to say much beyond that, but KQ must be restructured. There is no need of giving KQ a sum of Kshs80 billion while farmers, such as you and I, cannot access adequate fertilizer. Sen. Olekina, I expected you to push for tax-free subsidized animal feeds when you were with the President. Instead of subsidizing KQ, let us subsidize animal feeds, fertilizers and farm inputs. Let us get that money and put it in Hustler Fund, Jitume Programme, our roads and many others so that we get value for the money. Mr. Temporary ... view
• 14 Mar 2024 in Senate: Just a quick one to the witness. Acting Deputy Director, I have three questions only. First, when were these four officers deployed at the Deputy Governor’s office? You said 20 were sent to assist in the arrest, but in your letter, you have said that they were illegally sent there. When was that? Do you have those facts? Secondly, you have said in your report--- Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am trying to be quick. The Acting Director, Enforcement and Compliance has said that some enforcement officers doing manual work at the Deputy Governor’s home is a matter under investigation. Are ... view
• 14 Mar 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. We are cautioned because- -- The Bible says that we should not serve the law, but that the law should serve us. In our Ruling No.30 of the same on the procedures, you have the power to determine on a particular question, but not limited to question of evidence, materiality, relevance, competency or admissibility of evidence and any question consequential or incidental thereto. Your ruling is Solomonic and should not be vacated. In any case, in the tradition and precedent, the issue raised by my brother, the Senate Majority Whip, has been overtaken by ... view
• 14 Mar 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I have three questions. Mr. Misati, are you only friends with the Deputy Governor or you are also business partners? Number two, you have said that politicians are normally financially strapped or struggle, which I agree to some extent but some are well-oiled. Have you ever in any point like yours truly, funded any of the campaigns in the Deputy Governor Dr. Monda’s career or been part of his campaign? Three, in this M-pesa sending, were you sending money to Dennis Misati out of affection, love or were you assigning him responsibility? I want ... view
• 13 Mar 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I had indicated earlier that I needed clarification under Article 71 of the Constitution and the impeachment procedure under the Standing Orders. I need your guidance and perhaps ruling. One of the lawyers representing the Deputy Governor of Kisii happens to be--- view
• 13 Mar 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I agree largely with my colleagues who have spoken before me. We needed to allow the Counsel for the County Assembly to make opening remarks. I thought, as is the tradition and precedent, we always dispense with the preliminary objections. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate. view
• 13 Mar 2024 in Senate: On the issue of expunging the paragraphs that they have requested and the summoning of witnesses, I thought you should have guided them so that we dispense with. When you invited them to speak for 30 minutes, was it on the aspect of their opening remarks or raising preliminary objections? In my thinking, you would have allowed that the preliminary objections are raised, dispose of and then now it sets the tone for the engagement. In the opening remarks, they should have given us an overview of their case. With no pun intended, it should have been like a woman's ... view
• 13 Mar 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I said, “no pun intended.” Can you be listening carefully, my colleagues? I was just saying--- Mr. Speaker, Sir, can you protect me? view
• 13 Mar 2024 in Senate: Yes, I am orderly. view
• 13 Mar 2024 in Senate: I was saying that the opening remarks should be something that is long enough to cover essentials and short enough to arouse curiosity. That is what the opening statement is all about. I request that you allow us to raise the preliminary objections, dispense with them and then allow them to give their opening remarks. I have given them a simple advice and I hope they will take it. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
