• 4 Dec 2013 in Senate: Madam Temporary Chairperson, I concur with the amendment suggested by Sen. Billow Kerrow. But since we know that this House is the Upper House and the National Assembly is the Lower House, why do we not go further and make this suggested amendment even clearer? For example, Sen. Haji has a medal that is higher in merit. He was conferred with the medal of Elder of the Golden Heart (EGH) just like those who served as Ministers before. Why do we not say that Senators should be conferred with the honour of EGH? view
• 4 Dec 2013 in Senate: Madam Temporary Chairperson, the Members of the National Assembly should be conferred with the honour of MGH, because they are lower by just one rank; or we go to CBS so that the ranking is so clear so that we can distinguish them even by seeing the type of medal each one of them is putting on. view

• 4 Dec 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to inform my colleague that in the clip that she just mentioned that was on Nation Television, the very bold notorious phone snatchers in Uhuru Park, they said that they did the survey for three months and the police were informed, but nothing took place. This means that something has failed in our police mechanism systems even right at the top here in Nairobi. view
• 4 Dec 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I rise to also support this Motion by the Senate Majority Leader, Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki. Coincidentally, Tharaka-Nithi County happens to be where he comes from. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, as has been described here, there are three peculiar counties that have no county assemblies at all. I was the Permanent Secretary then and can confirm this. As earlier mentioned by Sen. Obure, who was the Minister for Public Works, we did read the Constitution immediately it was promulgated on 27th August, 2010, at exactly 10.27 a.m. We read Section 15(2) of the Sixth Schedule ... view

• 3 Dec 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thought that there was a directive that you also gave the same Committee; that when they are giving these supplementary answers they are supposed to also lay on the Table of this House a list of all the projects that have stalled since the beginning of year. So, I expected them to table that list of those projects that have stalled and what steps they are taking regarding those projects. view
• 3 Dec 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I join my colleagues in congratulating the Senate Majority Leader for introducing these regulations at this time. Indeed, if you look at what is happening in our country, now that we have gone into devolution, celebrating 50 years of Independence, you will see that there are people who have made Kenya proud. I do not think this has any monetary implication at all. This is just a medal and an honour. The first page says that the Act is the National Honours Act, 2013, and somewhere on that page, it also introduces a county. If ... view
• 3 Dec 2013 in Senate: Yes, we are talking about the Governor, the Speaker of the County Assembly, the people who have built the county. There are 47 such units that have made Kenyans very proud. I was one of the recipients of this when I was a Permanent Secretary in my previous life. I was given the Chief of the Burning Spear, CBS. I am expecting one now. My Minister then, Sen. Chris Obure, had received one commendation ahead of me, the Moran of the Golden Heart. I think he also had another one, the Elder of the Golden Heart (EGH). Now that we ... view
