• 14 Aug 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. As the champion of plenary proceedings under the Third Schedule of the Standing Orders, I am one of the happiest men. Finally, I have been vindicated on many fronts, even including broad-based issues. I agree and if you look at that Schedule, Page 216 of the Standing Orders, the formation of plenary or committee of impeachment of a Governor is almost the same. In fact, if you look at it word by word, but we are now subsuming ourselves into a quasi-judicial mechanism. Therefore, all of us will assume the role of being a Judge. ... view
• 14 Aug 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, further, tied up with Sen. Boni, I would like to invite your interpretation on Article 123 on decision of the Senate and further on the removal of a president as provided for under Article 145(7), where it does not substantively refer to the delegations. We need your interpretation on what it means.

• 14 Aug 2024 in Senate: This is so that we are crystal clear and not to shoot in the dark. I hope you will guide us appropriately. I thank you. view
• 8 Aug 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I request for your indulgence. You directed that I substantiate two issues, which include status of repair and installation of security system within Parliament. That was after the invasion of Parliament. I wrote to the Director General (DG) of Parliamentary Joint Services (PJS) in accordance with Articles 34 and 35. I still request for your indulgence to get the information to firm up my substantiation when we resume from recess. Since the DG is yet to give me more information to firm it up, I beg for your indulgence so that when we resume from recess, I ... view

• 8 Aug 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Deputy Speaker requested that I read on his behalf. I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.53(1) to seek a statement from the Standing Committee on Health on the status of health services in Meru County following an industrial strike of health workers that commenced on 1st August 2024, which in turn has led to a total shutdown in the delivery of health services. On 15th and 16th November, 2023, the health workers in Meru County conducted an industrial strike that was called off after a negotiated agreement was reached on 17th November, 2023, between the County ... view
• 8 Aug 2024 in Senate: The people of Meru are under imminent apprehension that the industrial strike may be prolonged as the parties involved have not shown any signs of conciliation to end the standoff. In the Statement, the Committee should- (i) State whether there are any immediate interventions to ensure that the health workers resume their duties to avoid cases of loss of lives and financial strain as the people of Meru have been left with no other option, but to seek health services from private health facilities. (ii) Explain whether the County Government of Meru has initiated any progress to implement the negotiated ... view

In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) Provide details of all the unsold tea currently being kept at Mombasa Tea Market or Auction.

(3) Explain the details of the stored tea in ... view
• 8 Aug 2024 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Standing Order No.101 is about contents of speeches. Is it in order for the Senate Minority Whip, who is seated next to the Secretary General (SG) of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), to dispute that when ODM sat under the leadership of our brother and the next Africa Union Commission (AUC) Chairman, “Baba” Raila Odinga, and resolved to work with the Government--- Is he challenging the position of ODM, yet they made a resolution?
