• 18 Mar 2014 in Senate: I want to inform the distinguished Senator and Senators present here today that the exchanges we are hearing about the location of refinery in Isiolo was actually approved by the Cabinet during the tenure of these gentlemen who are exchanging their ideas here. You should have spoken that time and reiterated that it is not supposed to be in Isiolo. The two of you and Sen. (Dr.) Kuti were sitting in that Cabinet. view
• 18 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I join my colleagues who have spoken before me in thanking the Committee on Energy, Roads and Transportation for the good work that they have done. They have visited some of the key areas that touch on their mandate and of concern to the lives of many Kenyans. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, there are some Committees that need to emulate this Committee. The key Committees must be very active and move around the country, for example, the Committee on Agriculture, Land and Natural Resources. This is because today agriculture contributes substantially to our Gross Domestic Product ... view
• 18 Mar 2014 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I join my colleagues in supporting this Adjournment Motion. The issue at hand is very critical to the people of Kenya because the top echelons of our academia are not on duty for almost one week primarily because of a negotiated CBA that was signed. We know the impact and repercussions that have come as a result of the strike. Very many students have not sat their examinations. Some of them are living in private hostels and will spend more money in paying for their stay, should they resume later ... view
• 12 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, may I take this opportunity to thank the Chairman of the relevant Committee for bringing a comprehensive answer, although late as it had been required earlier. While appreciating this response, I am surprised to only get this very detailed narrative but without a very concrete answer as to what they have really done to eliminate the disease and to rescue the students that have just been thrown out of school for lack of fees. He eloquently and confidently mentioned here that West Pokot with a population of over 500,000 people largely depends on livestock and livestock related ... view
• 12 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Chairman for being quick in giving a response to the statement I sought last week. I am indeed surprised by the way he is trying to put his response to impute improper motive on the people of that region. From his statement on page one, he says that the people who reside in that region, that is, the two communities - the region has so many other communities residing there - he is claiming that the officers were harassed and even threatened and the company had no option but to remove them ... view
• 12 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir is the human resource policy document for KenGen meant for one being? I am asking this on behalf of the people from that region. We have had two more people coming from that region as Tarus. I have talked of Eng. Isaac Ondiek and we have no problem with him. We had no problem with Eng. Abel Rotich. There are also others. We are only asking whether a certain engineer can be moved. When you hear a Senator saying that one should be moved, he means well. We can get another one from within or without. view
• 12 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would have appreciated more if he told me to give him a specific number of days or weeks. I will still share with him the finer details that I have. view
• 12 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I want to join my colleagues in thanking the originator of the Motion, Sen. Muthama and Sen. Orengo who also added more value to the Motion. We, as a nation, have not been able to look at the up of the eye of the people of Kenya keenly. These are the officers who serve as security forces in this country. You know this is a wide area. It includes the police, the General Service Unit (GSU), the Administration Police (AP), the prison officers, the Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) et cetera . I do not know how ... view
• 11 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I also join my colleagues in thanking Sen. Wako for thinking and speaking his mind and putting his knowledge onto pen and paper so that all of us can begin to go back to what we really brought to the forefront in 2010. There was a lot of euphoria in 2010 when everybody The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.
