• 6 Mar 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I want to borrow from Sen. Billow’s assertions. I think he is not only challenging the mandate of the Majority Leader in making that statement, but, in totality, our mandate as the Senate. There are Bills in the National Assembly that ought to have been in the Senate. You must move progressively and bring these Bills for discussion in terms of asserting the mandate of this Senate without necessarily having to wait for somebody to arbitrate. The RBC can immediately proclaim that they are properly before the Senate. view

• 6 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, can I propose that this Senate summons every Cabinet Minister who has presented a Bill before the other House to ask them about the determination, particularly for those Bills which we strongly feel are County Bills? view
• 6 Mar 2014 in Senate: Thank you very much, Madam Temporary Speaker. I think I want to agree with everybody else who has spoken before me. I think there is absolutely nothing new that I can add. Mine is to just say that we, as the Senate, are extremely honoured to be associated with the father of Lupita, Sen. (Prof.) Anyang’-Nyong’o. This is a man, hon. Senators have known to be a very great inspiration to many people. I think knowing the history of her father literally ties Ms. Lupita to the very aspirations the family has had for many years, including their dominance in ... view
• 6 Mar 2014 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, in fact, I was trying to praise China; that you can put off a microphone from different positions. view
• 6 Mar 2014 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I did not say that. That is an insinuation that was borne out of Sen. Murkomen. In fact, Sen. Billow has actually confirmed that there is a sticker written “made in China.” view
• 6 Mar 2014 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, it is in absolute good faith that holds to the demeanor and stature of the Senate. Madam Temporary Speaker, to allude to my last statement of support to Sen. Dullo’s Motion, we, as a Government, people and society, must start to meaningfully invest in this alternative field. I believe that these are also avenues of employment for young people. These avenues can create and generate wealth and enormous resource for our nation. If we can invest in this, we can be sure that it will also be an income and tax earner for this nation. The Governor ... view
• 5 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this being the soonest opportunity after resumption of the House, I rise on Standing Order No.43(2)(c) to seek a Statement from the Chairman of the Standing Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations regarding the raid by police officers at Masjid Musa Mosque in Mombasa on 2nd February, 2014. This raid was occasioned by the dispersal of what was alleged to be a jihad convention. Mr. Speaker, Sir, in the Statement, I would like the Chairperson to address himself to these particular issues: (1) What necessitated the raid? Could the Chairperson state who ordered the raid and ... view
• 5 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, what I am doing is that I am connecting one statement or question to another and, therefore, as I connect them, that is why when I talk about forced disappearance, it gives me the basis to ask the next question; whether the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) has ordered an investigation--- view
• 5 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the last time I knew of Sen. Murkomen, I knew that he was a genius who was able to decipher these issues. I think his one year stint in the Senate has eroded that. view
