• 28 Feb 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you have to bring this House to order. I was watching the Senate Minority Leader speaking, and he insulted the Vice Chairperson of this Committee. The Vice Chairperson raised a point of order and you never ruled on it. If we continue like this, this House will deteriorate to a House of insults. There must be order and that order can only come if the Speaker is firm on his rulings about respect for this House. view

• 28 Feb 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I keep insisting that we are a House of honor and the upper House. Even if we were not, the age of Sen.

Is that a language that must be used against colleagues in this House? Mr. Speaker, Sir, I told you not to lose the House. We are not silent because of the absence of the ability to insult back; it is because we want order in this House. view
• 28 Feb 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, there are few instances that I agree with the Senate Minority Leader in his language and everything.

• 27 Feb 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I did not mean to interrupt the hon. Senator. However, there is something that I should have raised immediately after the Notices of Motion. You need to communicate from your Chair because many people confuse two things in this House. One, the Standing Orders allow the Whip of a political party to pick any other Senator to vote in a committee election on behalf of any other Senator that they choose. However, that is not to be confused with a vote by delegation; meaning that in a delegation of Nairobi City County that is comprised by about ... view
• 27 Feb 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am raising this issue in my capacity as the Senate Majority Leader because Senators on both sides have been approaching me saying, “If there is a vote, I have left Senator so-and-so to vote on my behalf” yet that Senator is from another county.
