• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to inform Sen. Cherarkey who is a very good student of mine. I worked very hard to ensure that he is admitted to the role of advocates. He is doing very well. However, it is good for us to have our facts. The people who appropriate money for us is the Budget and Appropriations Committee of the National Assembly, okay. So, the problem is not the commission. When we know the facts, we are able to argue our case properly. From our end, the commission makes an adequate request or wish list for the ... view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: My neighbour, the Senator for Migori, should know some languages are unparliamentary, including using the word ‘heckling’. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to inform Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale that he should not mislead the country by referring to the Senator of Mombasa, County 001 as being one of the lawyers who have been inducted into the roll of Senior Counsel. For the record, the Senator of Mombasa, County 001, has not been inducted into the roll of Senior Counsel. Thus, you are out of order by referring to Mohamed Faki as Senior Counsel. view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Any Senator speaking before the House should be able to support the facts that he lays before this House. Sen. Cherarkey has stated that the PSC has spent Kshs200 million to repair the damage that was caused by the Gen Z invasion of 25th June, 2024. Whereas, Parliament is fully insured, it is Old Mutual Insurance that we will undertake the repairs. Can he substantiate which PSC has spent the Kshs200 million to undertake repairs? view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: He did not say Kshs200 million? view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, can he substantiate where he got the information that PSC is undertaking the repairs, yet we have a comprehensive insurance cover that passes that obligation to Old Mutual Insurance? Can he substantiate the allegation that PSC has spent Kshs100 million to undertake the repairs? view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I appreciate the magnanimity of the issue at hand. However, we have to be guided by our Standing Orders, especially Standing Order No.101, which prohibits us from discussing the conduct of the judge. We should be critiquing the content of the ruling, but not bring into discussion the personal character of a judge. That is prohibited by Standing Order No.101, which obligates us to bring a substantive Motion within three days' notice. However, it is permissible to discuss how it is inappropriate for that judge to issue a ruling that directs that matter to Njuri Ncheke. ... view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we should not hit the judge very hard. This Constitution created an Article 159 on alternative forms of dispute resolution. I would like to inform Senators here that even people who have committed murder have been referred to mediation, reconciliation and arbitration. You cannot attack the ruling that was delivered by that judge because he was invoking an article that is in the Constitution. Hon. Senators should also read Article 159, which speaks of judicial authority and the power donated to a judge to give rulings and directions. I would like to thank the Njuri Ncheke ... view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: Mr. Temporary, Speaker, Sir, I want to begin by thanking the Mover of this Motion, the son of Rose Auma Ajwang’ and Mzee David Ajwang’ Nyakwamba of Homa Bay. I hope I got their names right. If you are one of the Senators who normally appear when your governor appears before the committee led by the Senator of Homa Bay, Sen. Kajwang’, you will always feel the joy that Sen. Kajwang’ is the Chair of CPAC because of his understanding of the issues. I want to thank him for the good work he has done us, as the Chairperson of ... view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: So, we are glad to have you as the Chairperson and we pray that the people of Homa Bay will continue sending you back to the Senate, so that you can continue serving us. Now, on the report from the County of Nyamira, I want to bring to the attention of the House, that all the issues that were raised by the OAG sadly remain unresolved. The county headquarters that remained incomplete when these reports were issued by the OAG on the 30th of June 2020 remain incomplete up to now. I speak with a heavy heart because the last ... view
