• 6 Nov 2013 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Do you not think that Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale was almost challenging your decision to have approved this Motion? If that is the case, is he not out of order? view
• 6 Nov 2013 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, Sir, this afternoon I may sound unusual because of trying to do what I should never have done. I am wondering why Sen. Mositet decided to bring this kind of Motion. He did not just want to come and be heard talking, but it is as a result of desperation. This country is so desperate because of insecurity. From desperation what follows is anarchy or chaos. We are just about there. There is nobody in this country who will tell you that his life is guaranteed by anyone. I am saying this with a lot of pain ... view
• 6 Nov 2013 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, it is unfortunate that we never take this House seriously. At no time did I say that it was only the Kikuyus who did “a,” “b,” “c” and “d.” I chose my words and, in fact, you are much younger than me and you should listen to what I am saying. You should not feel like boiling when you hear a Kikuyu being mentioned somewhere because they are here to stay. You can take them nowhere. Therefore--- view
• 6 Nov 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I am not amused because I said that we be allowed to make homemade guns because the Kikuyus used home-made guns to fight Europeans. I do not know where all these other matters are coming from. I did not say that the Kambas did not fight for Independence or that Kenyatta, Ngei, Masinde Muliro and others did not fight for Independence. However, they did not use the homemade guns. The homemade guns were specifically used by those who went to the forests. That is my position. Madam Temporary Speaker, since my time was taken, would ... view
• 6 Nov 2013 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I want to apologize if I disappointed anyone of you, but I cannot help your ears to listen. This is because what I said is not exactly what you are trying to say. Madam Temporary Speaker, thank you very much. I wish I had more time. view
• 6 Nov 2013 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, is it in order for Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale to allocate himself the responsibility of the Speaker to decide who is out of order and who is in order? He ought to have addressed the Chair and not to decide issues by himself. view
• 5 Nov 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have been given an assurance by the Committee Chair that the contractors, according to what he was told by the Nairobi Governor, would be on site by now. Could he assure this House that within one or two days, he will confirm that the contractors are there? view
• 5 Nov 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this matter is very serious. I think the Chairman of our Committee is very much aware that all the reports that we get from the officers cannot be legitimately questioned because we do not know beyond there. What I am trying to drive at is whether the Chairman is convinced that what he is telling us today is not what he used to tell Members of Parliament some years ago, for example, that they are going to mobilize their forces, recruit more people and do a. b, c, d. Could he assure the House that something really ... view
• 5 Nov 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, with the permission of the House, the information that the honorable lady was trying to find out; on whether she should have been given the Statement before it is read here, that is the normal practice. Before a Statement is read by the Chairperson, a copy of that Statement needs to have been given to the Questioner so that they are able to follow what the answer is being driven to. Having said that, I think we can sit here the whole day asking the same questions; remember we started with a similar question almost two ... view
• 5 Nov 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I hope Sen. Haji is listening. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate view
