• 21 Feb 2017 in Senate: Thank you. view
• 21 Feb 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to move that the House do agree with the Committee on the said report. view
• 5 Jan 2017 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. With all due respect, we are now making reference to a document which all of us have. Is it in order for the Chairperson of the Committee on Information and Technology to keep misleading this House and the nation that there is a specific complementary system that they are making reference to when the Report I have here, on page 12(47) actually under that subtitle of use of complementary mechanism says:- “To introduce a complementary mechanism for identification of voters and transmission of election results that is simple, accurate, verifiable, secure and ... view
• 5 Jan 2017 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Did you hear the hon. Senator making a very extreme statement that even as we debate a very important Bill, that some of the leaders on this side are very close to some powers out which we do not know. Is he in order to incense this country even further? This electronic results transmission was an idea of the Jubilee administration. What we did was just to say yes to what you already initiated. Is he in order to further confuse and mislead this country? view
• 5 Jan 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, may I stand here and proudly state that not only am I close to that particular politician you are trying to insinuate, I believe he is the best leader for this country. I have no apologies to make. I want to tell Sen. Sang that it is my right under the freedom of association. Is he in order to offload the electronic voting issue on us, when it was a child of the Jubilee administration, which we are trying to adopt? view
• 5 Jan 2017 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. To start with, today is an important day in this country because the Bill before us could be said to hold the future of this nation. All of us are mature Kenyans who have been here for as long as we have lived, all of us do not have options, we do not have Kenyan number, two or three where any of us can take Kenya number two. If we destroy Kenya number one, then you go to Kenya number two. All of us have one country and one life; that Kenya is one. Mr. ... view
• 5 Jan 2017 in Senate: Thank you very much Mr. Speaker, Sir. It is sad that Sen. Sang stopped the flow of my points to Kenyans. I was saying, this is very important and any Kenyan who speaks in this House---First of all, I started by lauding all of us. This is a House of debate. Unless somebody wants us to come here and behave otherwise such as start fighting, doing all manner of things or walking out, we have no such intention. We come here to talk and let Kenyans know our mind, speak to each other and not at each other and to ... view
• 5 Jan 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, my conclusion on this matter is this; there is somebody or a group of people hell-bent on taking this country back to where it is trying to come from. There is somebody who wants a repeat of 2007. We may sit here and the 67 of us can either say we have the tyranny of numbers or whatever. You are forgetting that the real tyranny of numbers is out there. You do not have the ability to control the decisions and whichever way Kenyans will think or act. You can only add fuel to a fire that ... view
• 5 Jan 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I repeat, in case Sen. Wangari did not hear me well and I mean it; that the Jubilee administration is not only hell-bent on stealing elections, they are putting in place structures to steal elections and take this country to where it came from. I am speaking as a leader representing sentiments from Kenyans. They are saying they decide to support the electronic system --- view
• 5 Jan 2017 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I still want to take us back to Standing Order No.71 (2) (a). It is true as it states that each county delegation shall have one vote to be cast on behalf of the county. Therefore, what is the spirit of this statement? It means the person voting as head of that delegation or on behalf of the head carries the aspirations and feelings of that county. I want to stand here to ask Sen. Onchwangi to prove if his voting card does not read Nairobi County. I do not understand whether he has the ... view
