• 6 Dec 2017 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, kindly allow me to start by passing my condolences to the family of the late hon. Francis Nyenze, who we have learnt passed on today. I have remembered that based on what Sen. (Prof.) Ongeri has spoken about with regard to the environment and cancer. It is sad that we have lost such a great leader. The first time I incidentally met the late hon. Nyenze was when I was in primary school. I had just won the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) International Environmental Debate and he was the Minister for Environment then. I was ... view
• 6 Dec 2017 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. There is a lot to talk about, but I will just speak in summary. There are many areas to go into. All this is as a result of years and years of poor leadership within the city, from the councillors, the mayors and previous county governments, which I do not hesitate to point out the wrongs they have done. Moving forward, we need to integrate urban planning and development and make sure that this implementation matrix is taken seriously. This should not be one of those papers that Kenya is known for; just passing ... view
• 30 Nov 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have heard the question and the response. I heard my Leader of Majority saying that this is one of the most comprehensive responses he has. I beg to disagree with him completely. First, it might be comprehensive because it is long but it is not the right answer. I know the reason. I do not think it is by any fault of his but if you look at the Public Procurement and Disposal Act – I am the one who brought these amendments in the last Parliament on 30 per cent to make sure that young ... view
• 30 Nov 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, allow me to add my two cents worth to this because as I read out in the question and the response greatly affects my county as well as Sen. Outa’s and that is the point of order he is trying to raise. Any country where even one death becomes normalized is on the brink of destruction. From wherever you sit on the political divide the fact that people have lost their lives should be of grave concern to all of us, no matter by what circumstances those deaths have been caused. This is a grave matter and ... view
• 30 Nov 2017 in Senate: On a point of order Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 30 Nov 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, on this specific question, I am glad that we have all agreed that there is no Jubilee life or NASA life. The sanctity of it must be looked at by the Committee. But on this specific Statement and the previous one, we have said that the Committee charged with these matters should look at them. We have the leadership from both sides present in the House; the Senate Majority Leader and the Senate Minority Leader. When will we constitute these Committees and get this work done expeditiously? Can they give us an indication? view
• 12 Oct 2017 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Chairperson, Sir. I can see that all the amendments that are proposed in this Bill on Clauses 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 plus new clauses have been proposed by one Member, Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. Seeing that he is absent are we not able to drop all his amendments at ago, using the procedures applicable? Otherwise, we will be wasting the time of the Senate. Clearly, he is not here to pursue his amendments. He also has not written that any other Member pursue these amendments on his behalf. Mr. Temporary Chairperson, ... view
