Secondly, Mr. Speaker, Sir, if I have to comment on what the distinguished super Senator for Nairobi City County, Sen. Sakaja, has raised; I have never seen a situation of such impunity exhibited by somebody that the people of Nairobi City County have given the opportunity to lead them. Staying for one-and-a-half years without a deputy--- This is not a private kiosk where you think you will do things the way you want. There is theft left, right and centre in this county. I have seen the audit report of Nairobi City County. From where I sit, let me tell ...

The report that has come from the Auditor-General is a disclaimer opinion. What is happening around must concern everyone, and we must rise to the occasion and say no to such impunity---

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to join my colleagues in giving some words of wisdom to the proposed incoming new IG, Mr. Hillary Nzioki Mutyambai.

Allow me to comfort my brother. Sen. (Prof.) Ekal, and tell him to live by day. Do not carry that heavy load or the imagination that for one reason or another, the former IG, Mr. Boinet, probably by intention, did not want to talk to you. I am sure that as a leader, you do not also reply to very many phone calls because they are also quite overwhelming. Just as we are human beings, he could as well have been overwhelmed. Take it lightly, my brother. You are the future and you have a long time to deal with ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I hope that this gentleman, Mr. Mutyambai, is listening and taking note of what the Senators are saying; or the words of advice or wisdom that they are giving. Let me congratulate him for coming this far, because it has been quite a rigorous process from the time it started to where it is now. He has proved to be a man that Kenyans, through this House and the sister House, have made recommendations for his appointment, which we are hereby debating today. Going by the mood of the House, I can see him getting a ...

has attended; the positions that he has held in the National Police Service (NPS), and the critical docket that he holds today at the National Intelligence Service (NIS). He must, therefore, lead this institution, the NPS, by the bible. The bible in this case is none other than the Constitution of Kenya and the other relevant Statutes that have to guide him in the execution of his duty. He must always remember that his bosses are the Kenyan people. He is heading an institution that has had a myriad of problems. It is an institution that we have all been ...

The Constitution is very clear that all these people giving you directions must do it in writing. Therefore, live by the Bible, the Constitution and other relevant laws, and I am sure that you will be a very happy IG during your tenure and retirement. This is because you will not have to bother so much. I commit to give the necessary support personally, as a leader in this country. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, where I come from, there are at times when we have sporadic incidents of insecurity. If you may remember, I pleaded with you last week to ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, truth be told. Truth is painful, but we must get honest as leaders in this country. Equality is a fallacy. When Sen. Wetangula uses an adjective like ‘tycoon’, I am of the view that he knows what he is saying and he means what he is saying. We all cannot claim to be tycoons in this House. Similarly, we must appreciate what one has done in life when he is alive and tell him that he has done well. It is the same way we cannot be called professors here because we are not professors. If ...
