• 22 Jul 2014 in Senate: It is okay, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 17 Jul 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am perturbed with what has happened given that this message came straight from the Chairperson of the Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations. This did not happen in my own constituency only. What was reported by Citizen happened in Loima Constituency. Turkana South and Turkana East were also affected. This is happening at a time when the Government has taken all the troops to guard Ngamia I, the oil discovery in Turkana. I am getting messages from Turkana that we may have to stop these operations. If the Government is only interested in ensuring that ... view
• 16 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish to seek a Statement from the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations on the deteriorating security in Turkana County. In the Statement, I would like the Chairperson to state whether he is aware that there is an impending massacre likely to occur in Kaptir and Nakwamoru region of Turkana County; a Mpeketoni/Lamu kind of atrocity that has been caused by continuous killings, livestock theft and destruction of crops in farms along the Turkwel Irrigation Scheme. Secondly, whether the Government is taking any action to avert this massacre. view
• 16 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I think the matter is so grave. As I speak, these villages are being surrounded. Given one week, I think there will be a very bad scene. I think so many people would have been killed in the next one week if there is no action taken immediately. So, if she can make it two days, I will appreciate. The Government should take swift action to address this issue as we wait for that Statement. view
• 15 Jul 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish to seek a statement from the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations on customs problems at Nadapal-Kenya-South Sudan border point. In the statement, I would like the Chairperson to state:- (1) whether the Government is aware that the Nadapal Customs Border post of Kenya and South Sudan suffers from numerous custom barriers and restrictions from the national Government; (2) whether the Government is aware that Nadapal is not covered by the electronic cargo system technology practiced in all international border posts; and, (3) To confirm that the problem at Nadapal ... view
• 15 Jul 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, could the time be reduced to one week given that we are losing so much revenue and the two communities depend on this border? This border has not been fully operational in the most efficient way for the last two years. We would want a situation where activities running along that border do so efficiently. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 27 Feb 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The problem of IDPs is not over yet. For the Chairperson to say “we settled them,” yet in Turkana we have five camps--- view
• 27 Feb 2014 in Senate: Let me finish! view
• 27 Feb 2014 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, then that statement is erroneous. We have not settled ours in Turkana; the five IDP camps have not been completed and, so, we cannot say we have settled them. So, could the Chairperson include that response in his answer? view
• 26 Feb 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, from the outset, I want to start by supporting this Motion. But I have a small correction with the statement given by the Chairman that the report should have encompassed Turkana because Silale, if I need to be corrected on this, is in Turkana County. It is not in Baringo County. So, I think he might have covered three counties unless somebody wanted to put Silale under Baringo County to reduce the 77,000 square kilometres of Turkana County. view
