• 6 Nov 2015 in Senate: Order, hon. Senators. As you may be aware, we are assembled here today pursuant to Standing Order No.29(1) on the request of the Senate Majority Leader with the support of the requisite number of Senators to receive and consider the report from the Special Committee on the proposed removal from office of the Governor of Murang’a County. Let me start by commending all of you for attending this Special Sitting to consider this very important matter. However, I am informed by the Special Committee that they have not concluded work on the report and the same will not be ready ... view
• 6 Nov 2015 in Senate: Order, Members, I have not finished. I would urge all hon. Senators to reconvene here in the Chamber at 6.30 p.m. I thank you. 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
• 6 Nov 2015 in Senate: Order, Senators! I thank Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale for breaking the ice and giving us something to do. You know that we were starting at 3.00 p.m. but our team was not ready. They are now ready but still on their way to the Chamber. I know that is the only business that we have, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale. So, we cannot just do any other thing apart from that one. It is truly unprecedented but I guess you must also appreciate that when this matter was brought to the House, there was a divided opinion as to whether the sitting should ... view
• 6 Nov 2015 in Senate: Order! Order, Sen. Hassan! If the Wiper Party had that capacity, it could have put it to good use. view
• 6 Nov 2015 in Senate: Order, Senators! Let us listen to Sen. Haji. view
• 6 Nov 2015 in Senate: Order, Sen. Haji. Senators can only speak through the Chair. view
• 6 Nov 2015 in Senate: Order, Senator! Thank you for those interventions which I agree with, except to say the following. I think it is even more untidy when we retire and then resurrect, because we might have to do it quite repeatedly for the rest of the evening. Secondly, I cannot determine the time for retiring. I have asked my officers to talk to the Committee, so that if we will retire, we will have a reasonable estimated time for retiring. Already you have the options of 15 minutes, 30 minutes, one hour or not at all. In fact, my option is that we ... view
• 6 Nov 2015 in Senate: Order, Sen. Hassan! I do not know who appointed you to speak for the Committee. I said our team is communicating with the Committee so that when we adjourn, I can give you some reasonable timings. You do not have to give one opinion. In any case, the official spokesman of the Committee is the Chairperson, not your neighbour. view
• 6 Nov 2015 in Senate: Order, Members! You want me to give directions. However, you also want to make interventions. So, let us proceed in the interventions way. view
• 6 Nov 2015 in Senate: Order, Members. The rate at which we are going, the interventions are losing meaning. You cannot make your interventions to impute improper motive on other Members. Our Standing Orders are very clear. Sen. Okong’o, you are completely out of order. These Members of the Committee are not bussed in one bus. They travelled in their own vehicles. Just because Sen. Hassan dramatized the boda boda issue and raising other issues, should not be a basis for us to comment. I was very clear that the only spokesperson of the Committee is the Chair. That is the person we have been ... view
