• 21 Nov 2013 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I also sit in the Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations, under the Chairmanship of Sen. Yusuf Haji, who is doing a very good job. I would like to tell our security agents that the years of intimidation and dictatorship are over. The years when the Special Branch used to eliminate politicians are over. Although Sen. Haji has not revealed the name of the Cabinet Secretary, which I believe is Mr. ole Lenku, in this case--- view
• 21 Nov 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I think that Sen. Mositet was trying to play tribal politics in this House. view
• 21 Nov 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I think that we have the oversight responsibility over the state officers. As I said earlier, I sit in the Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations and we have previously been summoning the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and Coordination of National Security and the Director General for the National Intelligence Service (NIS), Mr. Gichangi, and they have not been honouring the summons. Unless we censure all or one of these security agents, this House will never be respected. view
• 21 Nov 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I stand corrected since Sen. Haji is the most senior Member in our Committee. Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I explained earlier, the years of threatening politicians are long gone. I remember the days of the Saba Saba rallies where people, including Sen. Orengo, used to be tear-gassed and their private parts used to be pinched by the same security officers. view
• 15 Oct 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, may I introduce to the House the newly nominated Senator, Njoroge Ben, from The National Alliance Party (TNA), under the Jubilee Coalition, which is the ruling Coalition in the Republic of Kenya. view
• 15 Oct 2013 in Senate: Sen. Njoroge is ready to take the Oath of Office. view
• 9 Oct 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this being my county, I rise to support this important Motion by Sen. Karaba. Indeed, it is true that the expansion of our road network within the capital city is not only going to decongest traffic snarl ups that we experience in Nairobi but also check the issue where we lose members of the public along major highways leading to the city centre. We have been losing churchgoers, school going children and so on. For example, along Mombasa Road, between South B and South C at the crossing point, we lose between 30 to 40 Kenyans ... view
• 9 Oct 2013 in Senate: belonging to innocent Kenyans, schools and churches being demolished. We should always be keen to comply with our Constitution. We should comply with Article 40(4) which clearly states that any land owner who is Kenyan, whether he has a title deed or not, is entitled to compensation. The Government should follow all the laid down procedures. Since I am also in, I will ensure that we obey and follow the Constitution. Again, I remember that there was a time a super highway was supposed to be constructed to expand Mombasa Highway, all the way from the Nyayo Stadium to Kitengela. ... view
• 9 Oct 2013 in Senate: Under my patronage as the Member of Parliament for Makadara and the patron of the Kenya Rural Roads Authority (KeRRA), I managed to construct 37 roads leading to the city centre. view
• 9 Oct 2013 in Senate: Just within my former constituency. Those roads include “Sonko”, Dunga, Bunyala, Dar-es-Salaam, Aoko Roads and so on. I wish I could have come with documents so that I table them before this House. view
