• 19 Jun 2019 in Senate: On a point of order. view
• 19 Jun 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, with all due respect to Members, we have a standard practice in this House and the procedures must be followed. If our brother from Taita-Taveta County is not satisfied with the answers given, there are laid down procedures in our Standing Orders. He can also approach the Committee and tell the Members that he is not satisfied with the answers and ask them to follow up on his behalf. It is wrong to prosecute the same Petition again on the Floor of the House. view

• 11 Jun 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as you have said, you have a discretion to look at a statement and determine whether it is urgent or not so that you can give direction on it.

• 23 May 2019 in Senate: We had a long history before issuing NPR firearms for the people living within pastoral communities. That history still exists. For us who come from pastoral areas, especially where cattle rustling is happening, NPRs have been a solution to our problems. Secondly, the security structure on the ground was unable to handle insecurity and cattle rustling. Clearly, that position still stands. Mr. Speaker, Sir, even after NPR was put in place, the current Governor for West Pokot County came up with very good legislation to govern the issues of NPR and this House was involved. We gave out input in ... view
