• 9 Oct 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me the chance to conclude my Motion. I would like to thank all those who have contributed in support of this Motion. I am sure that once passed, we will work with the likes of the Senate Majority Leader, so that we enact it into law. Madam Temporary Speaker, it is necessary to have emergency lanes because they have been used elsewhere. Since we are a growing country, we need to copy from other countries which have already implemented these things and succeeded. Once we start such programmes, we do not need to ... view

Murungi here; could he tell us what ... view

If this Motion is passed, it is going to set a bad precedent to other counties and we are going to scare the remaining 46 counties as they start off the devolution process. This is a defeatist kind of Motion where we are going to be judged wrongly. We all know that we are supposed to be overseers of counties and make sure that the money which is allocated to ... view
• 2 Oct 2013 in Senate: So, what I was saying, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, is that we have inadequacy of manpower in manning some of these offices, and that is the problem with the counties. It is the problem of the Senate. So, if the Senate is unable to man offices in such places; if we are even unable to get there and see--- I do not know how even these people go there. I am told that it is a problem to go to Turkana, and even to fly there, I am told that you have to fly through Uganda to get to Turkana. view
• 2 Oct 2013 in Senate: If you cannot fly Senators there, how then do you expect to get a good report if we cannot go there and see it for ourselves? So, I would have expected the--- view
• 2 Oct 2013 in Senate: For security reasons, that is the route followed by the planes and even the vehicles, which have to go to Uganda before you get to Turkana. I think it is true. view
