• 25 Jun 2015 in Senate: No, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. As we wait for a detailed answer to be given in two weeks, could she undertake in this House to proceed to view
• 25 Jun 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I do not know whether you followed what I was saying. For the first time in our lifetime there has been relative peace. Could this construction be stopped and then they can proceed with all the details? view
• 25 Jun 2015 in Senate: You are right, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. The construction was initiated last night and it is bringing problems. Let the construction be stopped and the status quo be maintained. view
• 25 Jun 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am very sorry that the Chairperson is not getting me right. There has been no problem for the last two months. We even signed a memorandum of keeping peace and stopping all construction in the presence of the Cabinet Secretary, Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government. Suddenly, there is construction going on. I request that it be stopped to avoid flare-up. So, it is not a usual development. This is something that is strangely going to affect what we have worked for. view

• 25 Jun 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I rise to second this Bill as brought to this House by the Committee on Education. I would like to thank the Committee and the stakeholders who participated to address the issues to do with ECD and for the very first time isolate the law that will be dealing with ECD, especially after the enactment of the new Constitution as seen in the Fourth Schedule. This is where there is separation of the function of the national Government and the county governments. view
• 25 Jun 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I stand to second this Motion and thank my brother, Sen. Abdirahman for standing in the gap at this time for the sake of Kenyans who have suffered. We all know, Garissa, Wajir and Mandera are three peculiar counties. Earlier, these counties had a shortage of almost 50 per cent of primary school teachers. Before terrorism attacks, they had problems. These counties have been hit hard by the attacks of terrorism. Some teachers died while others have not resumed duty. These three counties and by extension the neighbouring counties in the north have been hit hard. ... view
• 25 Jun 2015 in Senate: No, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. When you are not sitting on that seat, you are my neighbouring Senator. Let us not focus on Mr. Sossion and others. We need the Government’s assistance to address this problem. As I mentioned last time, we have Kshs2 billion to employ 5,000 teachers. This is just a drop in the sea whereas Kshs37 billion is wasted in the “Lower House” in the name of Constituencies Development Fund (CDF). This money can be utilized to employ 92,500 teachers which is the national shortfall. We should do away with this fund which is being wasted by ... view
• 24 Jun 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I thought the hon. Senator for Vihiga is supposed to be in the Government. His party, UDF, signed a pact with the Government to work with Jubilee. Could he tell us where he belongs? view
