• 15 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to move that The County Governments (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bills No.11 of 2017) be now read a Second Time. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have waited for this Bill for a long time. I am very happy that the Committee on Devolved Government and Intergovernmental Relations has finally returned its report. Therefore, as we proceed on this Bill, we are doing so when we have the report of the Committee. Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is a Bill that carries along various concerns and issues regarding county governments. It deals with matters of the County ... view
• 14 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr Speaker, Sir, on behalf of my colleagues, allow me to join you in welcoming our friends and honourable Members from Uganda. We are very glad to have our brothers and sisters from the East African Community (EAC) joining us to benchmark on the progress we have made in areas of accountability. There is a lot to learn from the two countries. The relationship between Uganda and Kenya is good. We believe that the process of political federation will be expedited so that in future, maybe, one of us sitting here or at the Gallery will be the president of ... view
• 14 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I congratulate our former colleague, Sen. Mositet and team for the Petition. It is ironic that there are those who are complaining about SGR passing their counties while where I come from, my people are complaining why it is not passing their counties. There is a lot of contradiction. There are those who are hurt by the SGR passing where they live and those of us who wish that it passed through our counties. What is important is to look at the national interest. As the Committee looks at it, there is a problem in this country ... view
• 14 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I do not know why Sen. Madzayo is so worked up and I did not mention his name. I just said that there are some people who behave like they did not go to school who said the Port of Mombasa will be replaced by a dry point. I did not say it is Justice Madzayo. As a matter of fact, there will be no ship that will dock in Naivasha. There will be no sea to bring that ship all the way from Mombasa to Naivasha. This is commonsense. The role of the sea is the ... view
• 14 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it depends whether I want to be informed. view
• 14 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am not willing to be informed. Unless I accept to be informed--- view
• 14 Mar 2018 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. For the record of the Senate of the Republic of Kenya, I did not say Rt. Justice Stewart Madzayo is unschooled. In fact, I did not base my arguments on Sen. Madzayo’s arguments but on political arguments that people are making out there. It has nothing to do with Sen. Madzayo unless he wants to juxtapose himself to that argument. Secondly, I will continue to insist that the Port of Mombasa, which is a sea port, cannot be compared to a dry port. It is even self-explanatory. If you have a sea ... view
• 14 Mar 2018 in Senate: CFA says and so forth--- this has always been all over the country including Mombasa County. So, it is my point of argument and you cannot use it to say that I am out or order. I am not out of order. You can make a different argument. You may not agree with me The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 14 Mar 2018 in Senate: Are we supposed to comment? view
• 14 Mar 2018 in Senate: On a point of order Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the Senatorfor Mombasa County to use the example of Sen. Kihika? I think it is the wrong one, when we know very well that there is a proper--- view
