“mariamu” jinsi tunaita ile lori. Wamejazwa na kushikwa bila kuzingatia kanuni za kupigana na COVID-19. Pia Nairobi tuna shida kama hiyo. Nafikiria hiyo shida ya Nyamira iko zaidi.

Tuko tayari pamoja na Maseneta wenzangu, Sen. Olekina, Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. na wale ambao wako katika Kamati hiyo. Sen. Olekina atakuja kama jirani wa Nyamira. Tutakuja kuzungumzia vijana na kuwapa moyo ya kwamba kupitia Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) kuna nafasi yao itapatikana hapo.

This House cannot waste resources of our staff and Members sitting for long hours to discuss such a report for days and then the Chairperson just disappears and fails to move it. Mr. Temporary Speaker, I seek ...

Bwana Spika wa Muda, kulingana na Kanuni zetu za Seneti, Hoja hilo litakuwa limepitwa na wakati tutakapo rejea Mwezi wa Februari. Kwa hivyo, haitaweza kuzungumziwa tena kwa muhula unaofuata katika Awamu ya kwanza ya 2021.

Itakuwa ni vyema hata kama kwa sababu ya wakati, Ripoti hii izunngumziwe kwa dakika mbili tu, lakini iwe katika kumbukumbu ya Seneti kuwa tulijadili na kutoa mawazo yetu na tukapitisha Ripoti hii. Tuko na idadi ya kuipitisha Ripoti hii ya kazi ambayo imefanywa na Maseneta.

We looked at many of the proposals. For instance, Article 90 on Members of the National Assembly being drawn from both single and multiple Members of constituencies. This provision has since changed and I join the Majority Whip; a very senior Member, who as we do the Adjournment Motion, we shall talk about him a bit.
