• 26 Jun 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. First, I join my colleagues in passing my message of condolences to Kenyans who yesterday lost their lives and those who were maimed during yesterday's demonstrations. Yesterday was unprecedented. We witnessed an invasion of Parliament. I thank the Almighty God that he saved my friend, Sen. Chute. When I was watching the news, I did not know that the person who survived that ordeal was him. We thank the Almighty God for you. That is a stern reminder that if we are not resonating with the people we represent, nobody is safe in this country. ... view
• 26 Jun 2024 in Senate: this House of having failed to address issues of corruption and excesses by those who are in leadership. How is adjourning this House going to give hope and confidence to our youth? The first issue I want to raise is that, for many years, this House has witnessed the mutilation of the Constitution of Kenya, 2010 on passage of legislation. I have had the benefit of going through the Finance Bill 2024/2025. Our Constitution is very clear that if we have any legislation that touches on functions of counties, such must be considered by the National Assembly and the Senate. ... view
• 26 Jun 2024 in Senate: It does not matter. That was a provision that was in the Bill. We have a chance to make comments on it. That is the point. Section 54 was introduced to the Affordable Housing Act by an amendment that was introduced by this House, the Senate. It was sent to the National Assembly and the National Assembly concurred and Section 54 was enacted into the Affordable Housing Act. Now, the Finance Bill of 2024 has purported to amend that particular section of the Affordable Housing Act by proposing a deletion without the involvement of the Senate. That is trying to ... view
• 26 Jun 2024 in Senate: continue being entrenched. If that is the case, then we are not addressing the issues that are facing this country. The Finance Bill has triggered the challenges that we are facing as a country. Why can we not demand, as a Senate, that it be brought to us before it is assented to by the President? I want to draw the attention of the House, that there is nothing in this Constitution that stops this House from considering the Finance Bill as long as it has provisions that affect functions of county governments. The Constitution only has a restriction on ... view
• 26 Jun 2024 in Senate: one Kenyan who should give us answers; the Inspector General (IG) of Police. He is the one who has commanding authority over the National Police Service (NPS). Worse still, we have the National Security Council (NSC) that has supervisory powers over all the security organs such as the Kenya Defence Forces (KDF), the National Intelligence Service (NIS) and the NPS. The NSC, under Article 240, is chaired by none other than the President of the Republic of Kenya. Does he approve the murdering of our youth by police force? We know that the United Nations (UN) Assembly of State Parties ... view

• 8 May 2024 in Senate: Bw. Spika wa Muda, pia mimi naomba nizungumze kwa lugha ya taifa. Nasimama kuunga Hoja hii iliyoletwa na rafiki yangu, Seneta wa Mombasa, Sen. Faki. Wakati tulipokuwa tunaangalia mpira wakati nikiwa mdogo, siku zile ambazo timu yetu ya Harambee stars ilikuwa inawika sana, tulikuwa tunamheshimu goalkeepe r mmoja aliyeitwa Mohamed Abass. Yeye alianza kucheza mpita akiwa kule Mombasa, akichezea timu iliyokuwa inaitwa Feisal Football Club kule Mombasa, na akaja akajiunga na Club ya AFC Leopards, na akawa goalkeeer maarufu sana katika kanda ya Afrika Mashariki na hata Kati. Wakati huo huo kulikuwa na mashindano yanayohusisha nchi za Afrika Mashariki na ... view
• 8 May 2024 in Senate: , wakenya wote wanatazama runinga. Mara nyingi anatuletea dhahabu sisi. Kama Seneta wa kaunti ya Nyamira, ningependa Gavana ambaye naheshimu sana, Mhe. Amos Nyaribo, ajikakamue na amalize ujenzi wa uwanja wa Manga. Hakuna mtu hata gavana mwenyewe anaweza kujenga nyumba yake zaidi ya miaka 12. Ukiamua view
• 8 May 2024 in Senate: The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate. view
• 8 May 2024 in Senate: kuwafanyia wakaazi wa kaunti kitu, fanya kwa haraka. Huwezi kutumia hizo pesa zote na baada ya miaka 12 haujamaliza uwanja huu. Hili ni jambo ambalo halifai. Rafiki yetu Gavana wa kaunti ya Mombasa, ambaye ni kijana wa mzee tuliyempenda sana, hon. Sharrif Nassir, akipata hizi pesa kwa kibahati tunamwomba azitumie vizuri na ahakikishe kuwa wakaazi wa Mombasa wamepata uwanjwa wa mpira ambao utakuwa wa kiwango cha kitaifa kama vile vingine. Sijui kama kuna timu ambayo inacheza kwenye Kenya Premier League kutoka Mombasa? view
