• 17 Oct 2018 in Senate: Clause 6 is clear. In my opinion, the time should not be limited to 14 days. Later on, I know I will have an opportunity to propose my amendment. To me, seven days are sufficient. We all know this country has a lot of monkey business and anything can happen. If you give some people one day to do something mischievous, they can change everything by the time that decision is communicated. I suggest that instead of 14 days The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained ... view
• 17 Oct 2018 in Senate: given to the clerk to communicate to the petitioner, we allow him to do so within seven days. view
• 17 Oct 2018 in Senate: Some of the petitions being raised are of an urgent nature and they require action immediately. Those are some of the issues we need to consider seriously as we discuss this Bill. When you look at part (m) in the case of petition presented by a MCA on behalf of the petitioner, be countersigned by members presenting it. This is a procedure accepted worldwide. However, this might be counterproductive because of the sensitivity of the matter contained in the petition. Some people may not want to be associated with the petition despite the fact that they are the ones petitioning ... view
• 17 Oct 2018 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I know Sen. Sakaja has raised the issue of capacity building for MCAs. I agree with him that this is part of enriching devolution when we bring such laws so that transition, growth and the influence of devolution will be easy. We do not want to hear MCAs saying these are criminal matters. If so, they should be reported to the police. As I speak, there is so a lot of restlessness in the county assemblies. As Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. indicated, the speakers of the county assemblies are under siege. It is very unfortunate. We, as ... view
• 17 Oct 2018 in Senate: We need to do something so that even as we introduce the position of deputy speaker, it will allow a seamless running of the affairs of our county assemblies. There are allegations of fights between clerks of various county assemblies and the speakers. I want to urge Members of the National Assembly to fast track the Bills we have sent to them so that we enrich devolution in this country. For example, they should prioritize the Petition to County Assembly (Procedure) Bill, 2018. Some of these laws are very important because if we had the position of deputy speaker in ... view
• 17 Oct 2018 in Senate: county assembly leadership instead of them addressing their core mandate of oversight of the County Executive. They should avoid having backlog of serious issues they are supposed to handle. I hope the Members of the National Assembly will fast track our Bills so that we have serious laws in place. Our Speaker is aware that we can have resolution of some of these issues if we enact these Bills. I hope my colleagues will fast track this Bill and transmit it for the necessary actions to be implemented. We will be proposing some amendments to various clauses in this Bill ... view

• 16 Oct 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, on behalf of the great people of Nandi County, I take this opportunity to congratulate Sen. Ochillo-Ayacko. I have seen his profile and he is a man of many firsts. It is good that we have him here. On behalf of “Team Tangatanga ” led by our general, William Ruto, the Deputy President of this Republic, we wish you well and look forward to working with you. You know “Team Tangatanga ” is not new in Migori County. We will be engaging more. I know my neighbor, the “City Senator”, Sen. Outa, has welcomed you. We ... view
• 9 Oct 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I was telling Sen. Olekina that he is so committed to the issue of fencing off the Mau and I have seen him trying to do that. I know that the preservation and conservation of the environment is very critical in our society. I am happy that he has now come and we are no longer seeing those hot statements in the media. I hope that he will maintain that because, as a country, we need unity, peace and love. Remember that tomorrow has been declared Moi Day, so we need those three attributes ... view
• 9 Oct 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, during the debate on the Impeachment Procedure Bill, Sen. Wako told us which counties have sweet chicken and Busia was one of them. However, we need a scientific research and I hope the Attorney-General view
