• 18 Jul 2013 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. Are you satisfied that Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale has substantiated his statement, as required by my colleague, Sen. Wamatangi? view
• 11 Jul 2013 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, since there is nobody else who is ready to speak, I think that I should push myself to say something. Madam Temporary Speaker, we have been treated in this House to all good information by those who have spoken before, especially from Sen. Kajwang. They have talked very well about the problems facing the youth and the country as a whole. We also talk about our youth being 70 per cent of the population, but nobody has ever come out to tell us: “It is true that our youth out there are 70 per cent.” That is ... view
• 11 Jul 2013 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I think my friend, Sen. Mugo, who just came in, maybe she did not follow the beginning of this discussion. I respect what she is saying, that “some women” benefitted; but we are not talking about some women here. We want women in general to be treated the way we are promising them; not bit by bit, because they belong here, they own this country and they do not need to be cheated for us to feel comfortable. view
• 11 Jul 2013 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, the youth were promised Kshs1 billion and the women were promised Kshs2 billion. I come from a county where most people live in the village; very, very few of them have benefitted, and we want them to be on the front line. Let us see them being helped all the time. Madam Temporary Speaker, with these few remarks, I thank you very much and I beg to support. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 10 Jul 2013 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I think it is high time that hon. Senators knew who the Speaker is and who is not. No one should interrupt the job of the Speaker. 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
• 10 Jul 2013 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am glad that you have made your own decision over this matter. But I hope that I will not be asking too much if I asked you to clearly say what the Standing Orders say. We need to go through the Standing Orders and find out how a name can be included. If it does not appear in the Standing Orders, we need to revise the Standing Orders, so that they are clear regarding a situation like this one where a name has been included. The Standing Orders should allow that ... view
• 10 Jul 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you very much for giving me this opportunity to say something about this Motion. I know it will be amended to remove my name and replace it with another. That is my information. It has not reached you, but there is that proposal. I can now speak freely on this Motion because my intentions and my wishes are being taken care of. I do not want to be a Member of this Committee. Talking about the Motion, before we move to formalize or to codify harambee, we have to ask ourselves; what was the purpose of ... view
• 9 Jul 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker Sir, I want to thank you very much for allowing me to say something about this Motion, particularly after the remarks by my friend, Sen.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, having said that, we have to decide ... view
