• 5 Mar 2025 in Senate: that the appreciation of the Ministry of the calibre of Kenyans that we send outside the country for jobs abroad? This is a House of records.

• 5 Mar 2025 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have heard the Cabinet Secretary talk about a national rehabilitation programme for street children. I would like him to clarify how many children are in the programme and the facility where rehabilitation is being done. Mr. Speaker, Sir, if you allow me, apart from being the Senator for Kitui, I am also the principal assistant to the Senate Minority Leader.

• 5 Mar 2025 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, clearly for my brother, my friend, my colleague, Waziri Mbadi, the shoe is clearly on the other foot. That is very clear. Just riding on what Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale is trying to ask, can Parliament, this Senate, your Senate that you preside over, legislate in vain? Is it possible that Senators would sit here, pass resolutions and it is just talk show? The Attorney-General then sits in an office somewhere and decides that this is not good enough. The question is; when the Cabinet Secretary received that advisory opinion from the Attorney-General, if he did, did he ... view
• 5 Mar 2025 in Senate: resolution on this date, but we have received an advisory opinion from the Attorney- General on this day so, please act accordingly? I will not belabor the point. The Cabinet Secretary fought with me on this matter when he was pushing the agenda of the former Members of the National Assembly to be compensated.

He is still waiting for the day when this administration will live up to its word that the things that had been done wrongly will ... view
• 5 Mar 2025 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is a clever way of getting you agitated. This is because somebody is trying to say that you can sit on that chair, preside over a Motion and a resolution is passed, which pushes ministries to sit down and come up with a solution to a problem, then one person, by a stroke of a pen says that all we have done is in vain. The question is to the Cabinet Secretary. Can any House of Parliament legislate in vain? view
• 4 Mar 2025 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I join you on behalf of my colleagues from both sides of the House to welcome the visiting students from Mount Kenya University. I assure them that in choosing to visit the Senate of the Republic of Kenya, they have made the right choice. This is a House of debate. It is a very mature House where debate on serious issues affecting this country, not just our counties, takes place. I desire that during their visit, then they will be able to witness that debate taking place. I also urge them to work very hard because ... view
• 26 Feb 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I can see my brother Sen. Wakoli in a deep conversation with the Cabinet Secretary, which is a good thing. I am sure he is briefing her on a few things. I rise to ask Question No.10, but before I do that because my gadget was on for a long time, to raise an issue or two on previous questions. I will raise them and the Cabinet Secretary does not need to respond. I will just raise them then proceed to ask my Question. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for ... view
• 26 Feb 2025 in Senate: One of the issues was raised by Sen. Olekina. We have a problem and one of my biggest weaknesses is to say things as they are. One of the biggest problems that we have is when people want to answer their questions. They ask and answer their questions. Sen. Olekina asked a very leading question that would have helped us, as a country, in terms of the management of healthcare. view
• 26 Feb 2025 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, please, hear us out. Just listen to the hon. Senators. This is not a debate. If you want to put us in a straight jacket, we will not accept. view
