• 14 Feb 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I request that you direct that the Report on the NADCO be circulated to Members. They do not seem to have it. view
• 14 Feb 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I do not want to belabour the point. The Motion has been moved and seconded. I am in support of this and the first Motion on limitation of debate. Now that we have limited time to debate Motions, I request colleagues to sparingly use Standing Order No.111. The Senate Business Committee (SBC), in its wisdom, has allocated time that they think is fair for meaningful debate on any matter. I thank you. view
• 14 Feb 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. From the onset, I am in support of the Motion but I just want to advance the argument put forward by Sen. Mungatana, my neighbour from Tana River. Mr. Speaker, Sir, on the matter of this President’s Address to Parliament, it is not a matter of just ticking boxes. I want to educate the Senator for Kakamega who is the Majority Whip, so that he may stop thinking about sufuria’s and put his mind on more important things like the Address of the President. The President’s Address is a very important thing. Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale ... view
• 14 Feb 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we will then begin to add value to governance. The President will be getting information and advice from Members of the National Assembly and the Senate one on one, without having to follow through newspapers or media reports. Let us take Article 132 of the Constitution a lot more seriously on the functions of the President. Let us take the sovereignty of the people of Kenya a lot more seriously because we are the leaders that the people of Kenya have delegated the power and their sovereignty to on matters legislation. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I support. view
• 14 Feb 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. From the onset, I stand in full support of this Bill. Having said that, I would also seek your protection from my colleagues. Yesterday in one of the committee meetings, I was told the Senator for Kisumu County addressed my Governor to the effect that he should prepare the books properly, so that when Sen. Wambua becomes the next governor, then things in Kitui will not be very bad. Today, you have had Sen. Cherarkey; my friend, referring to me as the next governor of Kitui County. I want to go on record and say, ... view

• 14 Feb 2024 in Senate: I like the proposal, though I saw a few of my colleagues smiling suggestively on this proposal, that the Speaker and the Clerk would effect the arrest. Come to think of it. In most cases, our police service has either been unwilling or unable to take firm decisions against senior members of the executive. There is a proposal that has been brought to the Floor, and that is not the one I want to prosecute. Maybe it is high time that the Parliamentary Service Commission, through this Bill, thinks very seriously about the establishment of a Parliamentary Police Service. The ... view
• 14 Feb 2024 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I need your protection from Sen. Shakila. view
• 14 Feb 2024 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, you would not even know whether Sen. Shakila Abdalla is rejoicing that the Senator is doing a good job on the Floor or she is discussing other things. However, I am happy for your protection. In conclusion, there is an amendment that I will ask my brother to consider in Third Reading. That is in Clause 6 that- “Where an order of arrest is to be effected by an officer of the House of Parliament, the Inspector-General of Police (IG) shall facilitate arrest as may be required by the Clerk.” Remember in the first place the reason ... view
