Madam Temporary Speaker, I was to make comments on the statement regarding boundaries that was read to us on behalf of Senator for Machakos, Sen. Kavindu Muthama. I seek to support this Statement because we have had a lot in terms of border disputes. It is not just the question of Machakos border. The boundaries disputes must be resolved. I am speaking with advice that there is a problem right now between the boundary of Kitui and Tana River counties. So, as the Committee looks at the issue of the boundaries of Machakos County, may they also advance their investigations ...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I also take this opportunity to add my voice, first of all, to congratulate the hon. Senator for Bungoma for making it into the House amidst stiff challenge from other worthy competitors. A heavy burden rests on the shoulders of Sen. David Wafula. I say so because Bungoma County has been a barometer of the politics of western Kenya. So, whatever utterances or political moves that he will make, the people of Tana River and the rest of Kenyans will be watching. All of us will be interested in his moves. We welcome him to ...

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this Motion. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is not a normal Procedural Motion. It is a Motion that speaks to the history of the Constitution and the freedom of the legislature from the Executive. It is a Motion that we should debate with pride and remind ourselves where we came from. In those days – some of us happen to have served under the old Constitution – the Head of State had the powers to prorogue Parliament. We did not have powers to make our sittings calendars like we are ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I take this opportunity to remind this House that during this Session, there will be times that our parties will give us instructions, but there are times that we must close ranks. We will not speak as Members of the Opposition or Government. We will close ranks and agree to do the right things for devolution to work. We need to protect our counties despite those who are gaining or losing. We should work together and independently execute our mandate without fear or intimidation. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I support.
