• 16 Dec 2020 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 16 Dec 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you have made a ruling, but there is a clarification that is missing. When a matter is preliminary, it is just that. Someone has contested that they do not want to prosecute a matter because it is sub judice. They might suffer double jeopardy especially if you get double orders from the courts giving you certain favourable decisions. However, you have violated the same order. view
• 16 Dec 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, let me go to the point. It is not lost on me that this House is surviving because of favourable court decisions. If the National Assembly was to ignore the various court decisions that have been made in favour of this House and make a similar ruling, like yourself, this House would have wound-up a long time ago. So, for a matter that is weighty and would have disposed the case in total, was it not wiser for the decision to be made by the Senate on a vote instead of the Speaker taking responsibility?

How are we expected to treat that kind of evidence? view
• 16 Dec 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, before I raise the issue I want to raise, I suspect Sen. Wamatangi has misapplied himself on the provision of Standing Order No.75 because the 10 days are cumulative. That includes exchange of documents, preparation of votes and so on. Therefore, 10 days are not for the hearing. We are time bound like Sen. Orengo has ably canvassed here for the better part of these proceedings from morning. I want to suggest a practically solution to the counsel. We have only one hour and eight minutes to complete the four hours. To the counsel for the county ... view

• 16 Dec 2020 in Senate: one hour and eight minutes between his two witnesses then he can allocate for cross- examination certain number of minutes to the counsel for the Governor. For the comfort of the counsel of the Governor, he needs to know that we are not in a fully court process. All the information need not to come through cross-examination. It can even come from a way of closing submissions. For as long as the information gets to these Senators, nobody is so stricto sensu following the issue of procedure, so that we save time. We are not a court of law where ... view
