• 22 May 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, beyond the Senate Majority Whip trying to go round issues, he has made it clear that, indeed - which is what we all believe in - if there was no reason for your appointment, there should be no reason for your disappointment. However, we can see him going round in circles, trying to look for reasons as to why this removal is being done. Mr. Speaker view

• 22 May 2020 in Senate: On a point of information, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 22 May 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am glad that Sen. Kang’ata has agreed to be informed and even accepted my plea for truncation. The first thing I would like to inform the House and Sen. Kang’ata is that when he says that the party lacks confidence, the party in this House is represented by Senators who are in the Jubilee Party. Hon. Raphael Tuju or anybody else out there, is not voting in this House. When he says the party, he is rightly in order to say that the Members here do not have that confidence. Secondly, because you said that this ... view
• 22 May 2020 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Sen. Kihika does not have a seat to take and so, today we will offend the rules. view
• 22 May 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I understand the passion and the manner in which Sen. Kihika is speaking. This is a House of rules and certain things in our Standing Orders are being offended. First, when this House has been called useless, the Senator has said that she is rephrasing it. Actually, what should be done is withdrawing because it cannot remain in the record of this House that a Senator has expressed the uselessness of where she sits because that speaks to many things. Secondly, when imputing improper motive by saying that there are Senators here, who are leading this country ... view
• 22 May 2020 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. You know when I rose, and questioned what is going on; there is a very dangerous precedence that is being set. Standing Order Nos. 96 (1) (2) and (3) are clear about content of speeches. When a Senator offends the Standing Order and we leave it to someone’s conscience, are we then saying that these Standing Orders are suggestions or are we going to follow Standing Orders? view
• 22 May 2020 in Senate: Jambo la ya nidhamu, Bw. Spika? view
• 22 May 2020 in Senate: Bw. Spika, hawa wenzetu ambao wanazungumza Kiswahili leo wanatukanganya. Kuna mwingine amesema “kulamba lolo” na mwingine sasa anasema “tungempa kongowea.” Jamani, waeleze watumie Kiswahili sanifu wala sio sheng ama maneno mengine. “Kulamba lolo” ni sheng. Pia tunasema kongole sio kongolea. view
• 19 May 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Sen. Kwamboka’s Statement is extremely important at this time of the pandemic. I am making these comments assuming that this Statement is not being directed to my Committee. Realistically, we must accept there is no education going on. We might aspire and say that we want to use the internet but there is no education going on this year. For the education sector, we met private and public schools’ stakeholders, Kenya National Union of Teachers ( KNUT ), Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET), Universities Academic Staff Union (UASU) team and others.
