• 28 Jul 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, there is confusion. view
• 21 Jul 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish to table a Petition from Internally Displaced Persons (IDPS) who are living in Nyandarua. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No. 233 to present this Petition on behalf of the Petitioners. I have tabled the Petition with a science of sadness and disappointment. It is unfortunate that 12 years after the post-election violence, there are people who still have not been settled. The sanctity of life and property is protected by the Constitution under the Bill of Rights and yet we are talking of people who lost everything that they had including ... view
• 21 Jul 2020 in Senate: It is our cardinal responsibility as the elected Members of this honourable House to address issues that are affecting our constituents. It is my humble prayer that the plight of these people be addressed with haste, so that we can restore their dignity, their faith in us as their leaders and also the Government itself. I thank you. view
• 21 Jul 2020 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I do not intend to disrupt my friend but he has made a statement which should not just go unnoticed. He said that the money that was supposed to settle some of the people who are suffering, which was Kshs25 billion, was shared among civil servants. If he has the slightest spec of truth, he should demand an action to be taken on those people because it is true that people are suffering yet money was shared among civil servants. Since he was in the Government, he could be having information that ... view
• 21 Jul 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the two Petitions. I will start with Sen. Mwangi’s Petition. The matter being raised by Sen. Mwangi cuts across all places in the country, and not just Nyandarua County. However, we have a country and a Government that failed to protect people. For example, during the clashes in 1992 and 2007, people were displaced from their duly owned land. These people went and camped on the roadside and even went back to where it was supposed to be their original place. This matter is one that the Government should have handled, ... view
• 21 Jul 2020 in Senate: Mr. Khaniri, I have not spoken. view
• 21 Jul 2020 in Senate: Okay, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Sen. Khaniri, I have not spoken the many words you keep throwing in this House. I have only spoken a pit full of the many words you speak. I am not a man of many words. I am coming to the end. view
• 21 Jul 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in conclusion - I am not concluding because I was rudely interrupted; no. view
• 21 Jul 2020 in Senate: I am concluding because I recognize there are some of us who are slower and we need to carry them along with us. Therefore, I conclude by saying, let us be sympathetic. Let us look at the lives of the people who have been displaced, some of who may be from Sen. Khaniri’s place. Justice should be done. Thank you. view
• 14 Jul 2020 in Senate: Yes, Madam Deputy Speaker, I confirm. However, I would like to make a brief comment. Evictions in this country have become a way of life. We have had evictions in Kariobangi and now in Kuresoi--- view
