• 21 May 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Did you hear the Senator from Mombasa say that Senators must have the patience to listen to somebody reading a document of six pages whereas the distinguished Senator for Machakos directed a question to you for guidance? He sought guidance from the Chair and the Senator for Mombasa went ahead to say that Senators must have patience to listen to someone reading a document of six pages. Is he in order? view

We have not been told what measures have been taken in relation to those students who are still at home, other than sending 10 policemen to a very porous institution bordering an enemy country. Let me put it that way. view
• 20 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir, let me take this opportunity to support this amendment. From the outset, if you put some vectors on the work of the Auditor-General then he will not be able to do his work. If you are giving a leeway that expenditure to the security cannot be scrutinized by the Auditor-General it would be wrong. I support. view

• 20 May 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir. I have heard a language which is unfamiliar with Parliamentary languages. Could you clarify to the House what that means? view
• 19 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, on the issue of reverting the health function back to the national Government, the horses bolted a long time ago. Those who dream in that world must forget about that. What we might require to mitigate this issue is maybe to create a system that includes a national health commission to look into issues of healthcare and medics who work under some Governors, who seem not to understand what they are doing. Secondly, devolution is a revolution whose time has come. Just like in the French Revolution of 1789s, we have a few rogue Governors who are ... view
