• 5 Nov 2013 in Senate: Sen. Haji, you will desist from arguing with the Chair. POLLUTION OF ATHI, GALANA AND SABAKI RIVERS view
• 5 Nov 2013 in Senate: Sen. Kuti, your senior, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, invoked your professional leaning in terms of being a professional doctor. You have explained that cholera outbreaks should be obvious. You have also confirmed that it is still a threat. Given the many issues that Senators have raised, the Committee should be going to the ground and should not only rely on what the Governor tells them or other sources. Considering that this is a matter of immense public interest, we should not be waiting for disasters or epidemics to happen. However, we should try to prevent them. I appreciate that the Senator ... view

In fact, you are agreeing with the Members that it is not just an isolated case but a national matter. Really, all these suggestions that have been given, in my view, might help and it is only the Minister who can consider them and not the Chairman.

• 5 Nov 2013 in Senate: Sen. Kagwe, you are completely out of order. I also want to confirm to the Chairman that the fact that for the Mungiki menace to be, at least contained, it took deliberate interventions by personnel in Government to be decisive and to have a resolve. So, to me, that should really be a source of inspiration that you need to tell the current Cabinet Secretary to have the same resolve and determination. view
