On the outset, I want to thank all my colleagues, Senators, for contributing overwhelmingly to this important Motion which talks about the importance of science, technology and innovation particularly in the world today and more so that as Kenyans, we need to embrace the same ideal and ideas at such a time when we are driving Vision 2030.

• 21 Nov 2013 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Like my colleagues have said, this is a matter that we should not take lightly, in the light of what the senior Member of this House, Sen. Haji, has confessed here, all of us here can attest to the work that Sen. Haji has really been doing in this House. He is more committed than most of the other Chairmen, to the extent that we need to acknowledge the magnitude of the problem that we have at hand. The relevant officers really need to take their work seriously. They are very busy ... view
• 20 Nov 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to seek a Statement from the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations.

I took an opportunity to talk to the relevant officers and they told me that I would be given the information when I seek this Statement. So, the Chairman should not speak on their behalf. You cannot ... view

• 20 Nov 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am surprised at the way my brother, Sen. Munyes, is talking. People are being killed at the border of West Pokot and Turkana, and I came to speak for the two communities. When he says that I keep talking about Turkana, what does that mean? Are you saying that they are not my people? You should declare your interest, because those are my people and I should talk for them. view
