• 9 Mar 2016 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, like my colleagues, I have further clarifications to seek. Firstly, we are talking about ID cards; this is mandatory for every Kenyan who has attained the age of 18 years and above. In my county, there are over 100,000 people without ID cards. To make it worse, there was a problem of cattle rustling between Turkana and West Pokot counties for a long time. So, people did not even have a chance to acquire ID cards. There were also problems between the people of Turkana and Baringo, West Pokot and Elgeyo-Marakwet and Turkana and Samburu. So, we ... view

• 9 Mar 2016 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, the Standing Order No. 208 provides for two types of Committees; Standing Committees, Select Committees and not forgetting there are also the Sessional Committees. Standing Order No.210(1) provides that:- “The Select Committees to which this Standing Order refers shall be designated Sessional Committees and shall be nominated by the Rules and Business Committee in consultation with parliamentary parties at the commencement of every Session.” These parliamentary parties are the same ones which have been given power in Standing Order No.178 to nominate Senators to serve in a Select Committee. You can see that there is no distinction ... view
• 9 Mar 2016 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I listened keenly to what my colleague, Sen. M. Kajwang, has said and it is correct. If you look back at the inaugural session that we had for this Committee, we had six Members from the majority side and five from the minority side totaling to 11. In the course of the sitting of that session, one member, Sen. Khaniri pledged allegiance to the minority. So, we continued like that and I liked it because when we were working, we were not partisan; we worked as a team. Madam Temporary Speaker, if it is during ... view

• 8 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I join you in thanking my neighbours for choosing to come for benchmarking here. They work in the County Assembly of Turkana County. That county requires serious oversight just like any other county in Kenya. The staff who work there are supposed to work closely with Members of the County Assembly and guide them where they can. As they work as a team, just like we do with our clerks and officers here, we should see a better county in the near future. view
• 8 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you removed the claim that assigned myself last week. On behalf of the Senate Majority Leader, I request for two weeks to ensure that the statement is given. view
• 8 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am one of the persons that requested an expansion on the statement that has been sought by Sen. Karaba to include the very important road which Sen. Wetangula talked about. This is the road from Nairobi-Nakuru-Eldoret to Uganda and South Sudan. Mr. Speaker, Sir, it defeats logic - I hope the Vice Chairperson is listening - that we can waste billions – sometimes the figure goes to trillions – to entertain a standard gauge railway that will ensure goods manufactured in other nations move very fast through the Indian Ocean to the hinterland of Kenya. That ... view
