• 11 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, give me time just as you have given others. I seek your indulgence. I was explaining that the distinguished Chairman read a Statement yesterday. The problem was that I had not been given a copy and he undertook to give me a copy, which he did. So, today it was just a matter of him re-reading, if possible, so that I can interrogate it. However, he has requested that we give him more time and I will graciously do that. Allow me to point out two things. One, this Statement like that one of Sen.Karaba, is ... view
• 11 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, with a lot of respect to the distinguished Chairman, I am only pointing out that there is something missing in this document; a list of recipients of cash transfers, per county, with the populations indicated. It is not here and that is important for the House to appreciate. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 10 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have a lot of respect for the Chairperson. view
• 10 Mar 2015 in Senate: May he sit down? view
• 10 Mar 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. He knows the rules, which stipulate that he should be sitting down. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am concerned at the Statement that the Chairperson is giving to this House; you can see the number of pages that he is holding. This was a specific request for a specific matter, but he is giving us the whole policy of the Ministry of Education. Do we have the luxury of sitting here the whole afternoon, listening to him? Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 10 Mar 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I would like to seek clarification from the Chairperson because he talked about funds being transferred to schools, particularly primary schools. There is a class of schools which are called special schools conducting special education. They have dumb children and other children with disabilities. Can the Chairperson confirm that schools with those children have been given money to run them because I am aware of some schools in Kitui County which have such classes and are duly registered by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology, but those streams with children with disabilities have ... view
• 10 Mar 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for that intervention. My first point was to complain that I do not have the benefit of having to interrogate such an important report that appears to be having volumes of papers, as you rightly said. Before I even go further, would I be in order to ask that you stand down the Chairman to deliver this Statement tomorrow, when he shall have made sure that I have copies of those documents so that I will have the advantage of reading and interrogating them? view
• 4 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, first, I have a lot of respect for all those people involved in this nomination; from the President to the Co-Chairs and membership of the Joint Committee; but having said that, I cannot, with a clear conscience, support this nomination. I say this because we are looking for the Inspector-General of the Kenya Police Service; a man who is going to be in charge of the security of this country. Even so, at this time when we have all these security threats by terrorists, it is a very heavy burden that we are placing on the holder ... view
• 26 Feb 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I have a lot of respect for my brother, Sen. Muthama. view
• 26 Feb 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I was saying that I have a lot of respect for my brother, Sen. Muthama. However, this habit of the House that whenever we want to ventilate on issues, particularly important issues affecting our counties, we are told that debate is enough---. It is not fair and we should be allowed to debate these matters exhaustively. It cannot be true that those who have spoken have spoken for others. I represent the people of Kitui County and nobody else here has the mandate, except me. I demand my right to represent the people of Kitui County ... view
