• 11 May 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, as I said, for the third time and on behalf of the people of Kenya and for posterity, for the good of the nation and for history to remember us, I vote a big no. view
• 11 May 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, on behalf of the people of Elgeyo-Marakwet County and Baringo County, which was not represented on the Floor, and all Kenyans who believe in independence of the Judiciary and in defence of the Constitution of Kenya, 2010, I vote no. view
• 6 May 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, one of my memorable experiences as a student, is sitting in the Gallery in the National Assembly and watching Sen. Orengo, Hon. (Prof.) Anyang’-Nyong’o, Hon. Mukhisa Kituyi, Sen. Wetangula and Sen. Wako, the Attorney-General then. As a student, I was so inspired. I had just come from university and I was not even there officially as an intern. I just got inspired and did not want to go back to Embobut, after coming to Nairobi City for the first time. Some of us came to Nairobi City for the first time to join university. I told myself ... view
• 6 May 2021 in Senate: inspired and prepare themselves for a path of changing this country. In whatever they do even if they do not join politics, they will have an opportunity to inspire this nation. One of my most memorable and inspiring jobs is lecturing at the university. It was an honest, straightforward and inspiring job. I got inspired by students and also had an opportunity to inspire them. I hope in Parliament, we can try as much as possible to apply the little we knew or even half of the theory we used to teach. May I tell them not to copy the ... view
• 6 May 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I think he is out of order because when one brings a Motion here, it must have all the details so that we know what we are voting for. view
• 6 May 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I agree and sympathize with your position only that I do not know whether Sen. Malalah is in order to spend a lot of time praising ANC of late. It is a phenomenon that has come in, in the last six months yet in the past he was more focused on most of the time talking about NASA or ODM. If he can just focus on the issues, it would save him a lot of comparison from his past life. view
• 6 May 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have served as a Member of a Committee investigating the removal of a Governor and as a leader in this House, hence I know the merits and demerits of a Committee process. I do agree with Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. I served in the taskforce on devolved government that was constituted by the Minister of Local Government, Hon. Musalia Mudavadi. Sen. Orengo who was then the Minister of Lands asked for my curriculum vitae under the instructions of the former Prime Minister. The Prime Minister had asked that I be a member of that ... view
• 6 May 2021 in Senate: Sen. Wetangula has captured the history. In Governor Wambora’s impeachment one and two where I served as the Vice-Chairperson, there were no allegations. We have a big report explaining how we made our decision. Our final decision at Windsor Hotel was not even known to the staff because we made our decision in the Golf field. We asked the secretariat to write the report and inserted the last sentence ‘not found guilty’ on the last day. Even when we brought the report to the Chamber, Members were not sure whether we found the Governor guilty or not guilty. Mr. Speaker, ... view
• 6 May 2021 in Senate: One of the greatest advantages of this Motion, and I totally understand the Senate Business Committee--- The reason they brought the Motion without the names is that every time a Motion is brought with the names and it is defeated, the integrity of the individual Senators who are in the Motion is questioned. This is because out there, the public will conclude that the reason we did not go the committee way is because it was biased and, therefore, there was an outright decision of the Senate to say, “we will not go to the committee”. The advantage with this ... view
• 6 May 2021 in Senate: Whatever decision we make today, it is in the best interest of this country. I conclude by saying that the decision to bring the Motion without the names is a genius one. If we decide to go for committee, we must sit back and make a decision on how to constitute that committee for fairness and in the best interest of the country, and also, to ensure that those who have served in similar committees in the past can give way to others, who have never served in similar committees. The principle should be that those who have not served ... view
