• 9 Apr 2019 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, thank you. First, I take this opportunity to welcome the teachers and students of Kenyoro Primary School from Itibo Ward, North Mugirango Constituency in Nyamira County. This is one of the best public primary schools that we have in Nyamira County. They excel in academics and extra curriculum activities. They are very good in sports and drama. I commend their head teacher, Mr. Ombwogo who has steered this school well. I encourage that as many students as possible should visit the Senate, so that they see what we, as the representatives of their parents and teachers, do. ... view
• 2 Apr 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first, I want to be on record as fully supporting the appointment of Mr. Hilary Nzioki Mutyambai as our next IG of Police. I also thank the Joint Committee of the House for a job well done. It is ironical that this is the only vetting or approval that is being done by this House for persons holding constitutional offices. It speaks volumes on the gaps that exist in the Constitution that we enacted in 2010. This is because for a House that is supposed to protect the interests of counties in Article 96, there are ... view
• 2 Apr 2019 in Senate: Chair of Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission. You will interview people and they will promise heaven. You will then pick somebody and say, “This is now the best candidate that we are bringing on board;” but the moment they occupy those offices, they will never implement any of those things they promised to implement. I hear that Sen. (Dr.) Kabaka, my good friend, schooled with this nominee. I, therefore, hope that he can walk the talk, because if you look at what he is promising, you imagine that he will be transformative. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is the issue of ... view
• 2 Apr 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am happy because I am one man who is directly affected by the cattle rustling that our neighbours from Bomet County do. Often times when you go home, most of us do not sleep soundly because of the fear of cattle rustlers. I hope that the promise that the IG of Police is making will allow my people of Nyamira County to sleep soundly and make sure that their cows are not taken by their neighbours. I am waiting to see what alternative mechanisms he is promising to bring on board are so that we ... view
• 2 Apr 2019 in Senate: track that thief. The thief thought that he had outsmarted the police officers, but the chopper tracked him to a restaurant where he went to take coffee. He was arrested on his way out without any exchange of fire. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in this country, we have had situations where innocent Kenyans have lost their lives because police officers, in trying to kill high profile suspects, shoot and kill innocent citizens. That should not happen because under our Constitution, we are all presumed innocent until proven guilty. I, therefore, hope that the new IG of police will ensure that ... view
