Madam Temporary Speaker, I wish to inform Sen. Gwendo that it is not just members of the public who cannot be in control of their firearms, it just depends on an individual.

So, it just depends on somebody’s character. So, it is not everybody who will misuse his or her weapon.

Bw. Spika, labda Sen. Haji hakumuelewa Sen. (Dr.) Machage kwa sababu amerudia tu yale maneno yaliyozungumzwa na Mkuu wa Majeshi kwamba ni kweli na ni dhahiri kwamba wanajeshi walipatikana kwa makosa ya kuiba. Wawili wamefutwa kazi na mmoja amefungiwa katika jela yao na wanaendelea kuchunguza zaidi. Kwa hivyo, hili ni jambo ambalo limekubalika kwamba lilitokea.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first, this issue bedevils everybody in this country. Elective positions are set out in the Constitution. We have the MCAs, Members of Parliament, Governors, Senators, the Deputy President and the President. When the Constitution was passed, it defined all the elective positions. It spelt out in black and white the role of each elected leader. Job evaluations for MCAs are now taking place when they are supposed to represent people.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the main question that was raised by every speaker here was with regard to the evaluation of a person, who was elected and given a mandate to do work as stipulated in the Constitution. Therefore, instead of the Chairman actually making a long explanation, he should just dwell on what is being evaluated, what is expected to come out of that and whether or not it is acceptable.

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I rise to respond to this Motion and most sincerely wish to thank all the Senators who contributed in a very positive way. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, this Motion, as Sen. Orengo said, was direct and clear to the point because it addresses the needs of the people we are leading. It addresses the problems that are facing the common mwananchi . Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I have asked the Government, through this Motion, to do very simple and basic things; one was to develop the policy on fruit preservation and storage through modern ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, for the first time, I want to concur and support the Senate Majority Leader. But he has forgotten that President Moi initiated efforts to build gabions all over the country, actually by himself lifting stones to build them.

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. With due respect, would I be in order to say that Sen. Khalwale has moved out of the Motion that we are actually discussing and started talking about stealing land and corruption? How is that related to this Motion? If he has evidence to that effect, why can he not bring a Motion and say so- and-so took this and that and should be compelled to return it? Could he withdraw those remarks?
