• 17 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, in addition to that, I would like to know what effort the Government is taking, including reference of some of the shooting to the Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA), to determine the circumstances of the shooting. In other countries, whenever a police officer uses a fire arm, there is an inquiry as to the circumstances of the shooting. In fact, to be precise, Kenya has adopted international standards on the use of firearm. One can only use a firearm when your life or the life of another is under threat and no other time. Therefore, I ... view
• 17 Mar 2016 in Senate: Nidhamu, Bw. Spika wa Muda. Nimekuwa nikimsikiliza Seneta wa Lamu ambaye ametoa shutuma katika maongezi yake. Hili ni Jumba la itifaki na lazima uwe na ithibati kwa kila jambo unalosema. Amesema kwamba Gavana wa Lamu alichochea maskwota na kuwaambia wafanye vitu fulani. Ni shutuma kubwa kusema kuwa Gavana anaporomosha maendeleo. Sisi hapa, katika Sheria zetu za Seneti, tunasema kuwa huwezi ukataja mtu kwa namna mbaya bila ya kutoa ushahidi ua kuthibitisha kile unachosema. Kwa hivyo, ningependa ndugu yangu ambaye ni mzee wetu na sote wapwani tunamheshimu, akithibitishe shutuma hizo ama aziondolee mbali. Nimefundishwa Kiswahili na Kiongozi wetu, Sen. Wetangula. view
• 17 Mar 2016 in Senate: Nidhamu, Bw. Spika wa Muda. Hata mimi ninaweza kuja hapa na kukuambia kuwa hiki na kile kinafanyika kule Mombasa na gavana anafanya hivi na vile halafu niseme kuwa kwa vile mimi natoka Mombasa na nayajua zaidi kukuliko, hakuna haja kufafanua zaidi. Hizi shutuma kuhusu gavana, zitawekwa kwenye kumbukumbu tunazoita the HANSARD. Huenda zikatumiwa na mtafiti kusema kuwa hili jambo liliongelewa katika Seneti na likathibitishwa. Kwa hivyo, kuna dharura kwa sisi kuthibitisha hizo shutuma ama ziondolewe mbali. view
• 16 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I was watching the proceedings when I heard Sen. (Prof.) Anyang'-Nyong'o saying that he was in Alliance High School in 1967. So, I came to give the young people hope. I was not in Alliance High School, but I went to Lenana School. Your motto is “Strong to Serve” but Lenana School’s motto is Nihil Praeter Optimum . This is Latin which translates to “Nothing But The Best.” I can confirm what Sen. M. Kajwang’ said, that we used to beat you in everything. The thing that took us to Lenana School was academics. That in ... view

• 10 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in Kenya’s post-independence history, all human rights bodies are in concurrence that there has never been a massacre or crimes against humanity that were committed blatantly like those in northern Kenya. In fact, it is our only modern-day genocide; the Wagalla and others. This occasioned massive suffering in northern Kenya. In fact, the issue of IDPs in northern Kenya has been there since the time I was in the Kenya National Commission for Human Rights (KNCHR). While I appreciate the personal thought of the Coast region, I also wanted to broaden it so that we include the ... view

• 1 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I was hoping to contribute to the amendment itself. Now, I have heard the gist of the amendment. I support the amendment because of that relative growth of our revenue to what we allocate to our counties. I seek to support it. I had actually pressed my button to speak on the substance of the BPS. view
