• 3 Oct 2024 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I meant he is living on borrowed time because my statement has taken over a year. So, that is what I meant. I did not mean any other thing. Sen. Methu should relax because he sits beside the Senate Majority Leader or the Deep State. He should worry less. It is good that the Senate Majority Leader is in the House. Some statements have taken over two years to respond to and events have already overtaken some. Through the Liaison Committee, the Senate Majority Leader should call some Members to order. However, the guilty are always afraid. ... view
• 3 Oct 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I would have expected you to be among the top contributors because you have a history of running the defunct moribund, our former beloved party, Jubilee, and also you are the midwife of the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) Party as the Secretary-General (SG). I hope you will get time to contribute. I am happy the deputy party leader of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), my brother and neighbour, Sen.Godfrey Osotsi, a former Secretary General of one of the coalitions of the Kenya-Kwanza Government, the Amani National Congress (ANC). I hope we will learn from you ... view
• 3 Oct 2024 in Senate: I am reliably informed that the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has already done a raid in Kapsabet County Offices. We hope that with the ongoing investigation, we shall be able to be told who bears the greatest responsibility for the corruption allegations that we are facing. Going into the future, we have agreed with the people of Nandi and have directed our Members of County Assembly (MCAs) to commence impeachment proceedings against the sitting governor. Madam Temporary Speaker, let me mention a few things. One is that as of 2022, we had 90 political parties and others are more ... view
• 3 Oct 2024 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I know as a Speaker, and as a former Secretary General (SG), you want women empowerment. If you go to China, the Communist Party is operated in a military style, with military precision and concision, with an eye of military maxima. If you go to Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM), their organisational structure led by our beloved sister, the President of the Republic of Tanzania Mhe. Samia Suluhu Hassan is impressive. They are organised from the grassroots to the national level is so meticulous. We, as a country, we must build political parties on ideology. We should avoid ... view
• 3 Oct 2024 in Senate: He can inform me. view
• 3 Oct 2024 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, you have to appreciate Sen. Osotsi. He needs to be careful with his wording now that he is Deputy Party Leader. I agree with him, but I was talking about quantifiable contribution. For example, you and I pay Kshs50,000 monthly to UDA party. Maybe the MCAs pay Kshs20,000 and there are others that pay Kshs10,000. That is what I meant. We need accountability of the party fund. It is very critical. Madam Temporary Speaker, you have been a Secretary General of the ruling political party. You sign cheques and run the accounting of the political party. In ... view
• 3 Oct 2024 in Senate: Anne Nderitu and deposited. We were moving from Jubilee to the United Democratic Alliance (UDA). We need seamless movement. I am proposing that in the management of political parties, when I go to the website of this Regulation, we are amending of creating a commission, I can be able to tell members of a certain political party. You and I who are in UDA can go to the website and know the number of members in our party and this will account for transparency and accountability. We wanted to prevent the issue of party hopping but we never succeeded. Nowadays, ... view
• 3 Oct 2024 in Senate: where we are today. We need a support system for our young people and People with Disability (PWDs); we need them on the table. I am happy women are receiving much attention, but where will youth go? The youth have come up strongly out of their own energy and zeal. What about the PWDs? What will we do to them? What about the minorities and the marginalised? As a political party, we must be deliberate, so we proposed that we ring-fence or create protected constituencies for only women to give them chances of winning seats. While I agree that could ... view
• 2 Oct 2024 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 2 Oct 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, while the issue that has been raised by Senate Majority Leader is of weighty concern, under the law, there is what we call, fair comment. It is judicial notice that your counterpart in the National Assembly and his deputy have taken a position on the matter that is active before them. Therefore, as you consider your ruling, you should also be able to guide us because the umpire of the arbiter-neutral House, who should be neutral, have already taken a position on that matter. Mr. Speaker, Sir, even as you rule on it, there is also the ... view
