4 Jun 2014 in Senate:
It cannot be invalid. I am not talking as a lawyer here. My friend can continue arguing because we know about lawyers.

4 Jun 2014 in Senate:
Thank you very much, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I am saying that I am very much aware of the authority of the Senators and I am also very much aware about our responsibilities to the people of this country. Let us not forget that we have 47 county governments and they are provided and protected by the same Constitution which is protecting this Senate. Therefore, my appeal---

4 Jun 2014 in Senate:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I hope I will be added some time because I was not given enough opportunity by the Mover of the Bill to explain or to express my concern about this matter. To some of us, this matter is so grave that it needs to be left to the people who are supposed to deal with it. There is no harm in waiting to get the county governments to address this House through the Clerk of the Senate to say what resolutions they have passed. In fact, Laikipia County has already done that. This needed to be ...

3 Jun 2014 in Senate:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank my friend, Chris, for the good job he did with his team. Secondly, I would like to say something different from what is being said here. I agree with your ruling. Let us not appear as if we are here siding with one group of people. If there was no misappropriation or any other bad dealings, there would not have been problems. We are called to be responsible in terms of impeachment so that we solve the problem like the one that was in Kericho. We should form a committee, go there ...

15 May 2014 in Senate:
Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, better late than never. I think we have been here for very long; from 2.30 pm up to now. We want to clear this business as soon as possible because no matter how much we talk; the end result is to pass what is in front of us. I feel sympathetic to those who took the occasion of this debate to talk about all manner of politics. We all know that there is time for politics which has nothing to do with what other people think or say about anyone. We think just as politicians. We ...

15 May 2014 in Senate:
Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am being very careful about what I am saying. I am sure that I am not insinuating improper motive against any Senator here. However, I equally have my own right and opinion about what I perceive to be Kenyan politics. I am not sure who among us here would not want to support additional money from Kshs226 billion to probably Kshs500 billion, if our Treasury could afford. That is in our Constitution. It says that we should get the money according to our income as a nation. We are not pleading with anybody to give ...

15 May 2014 in Senate:
I was just saying that because of time, I want to say something about national security of this nation. Whatever we saw today where the President was mobilizing his team for the sake of the security of this country, I do not think we need to condemn a situation and yet we have not seen how it works. We believe that if the President remains in charge of security he must have his agents. You cannot just become a President and rely on somebody who is not working directly for you. This can never happen. I believe that quite a ...
