Is Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale in order to doubt my credentials and to actually cast aspersions on the institution of the Senate that it snatches credentials from anybody?

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I was in my office. I have been following this debate. It is completely irresponsible and out of order. First of all, is it in order for any Member of this House to mislead this House and this House to continue with a debate on the wrong line? Secondly, is it in order for him to lie to the country that the national police reservists – even the word connotes that they are civilians – when we know that Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo brought the law to be amended for their allowance? The National Police Act which ...

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo is on record on a video tape that is circulating all over, inciting young men in Tiaty Constituency where he does not even come from - He is not even a Senator for Baringo – telling them that Samburu and Marakwet land is their land. That is on record. I am willing to provide evidence to substantiate. I have the record. Secondly, is it in order for Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo to mislead this House on a clear matter that we all know?

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for my colleague to actually mislead the House? We had an engagement with him and our people not more than two months ago. Other elected leaders and I had the same engagement in Pokot. Is it in order for the Senator to create an impression that we have not done something as leaders, when as a matter of fact, when the negotiations were going on, civilians were being killed?

Mr. Temporary, Sir, let me save time. To the contrary, I was in Baringo and it is the Senator for Baringo who should be inviting me. I have held more than 30 meetings alone with my people. Actually, I am supposed to be invited. I have held more than five meetings in Baringo just looking for peace. So, this matter is extremely emotional for me. I have gone for funerals and seen people and no single Marakwet has been killed in another county. Not a single Marakwet to show that there has been invasion in another county, not at all, ...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I come from the affected area. There are 649 police reservists in West Pokot County. For the first time, there are only just 200 police reservists in Elgeyo-Marakwet County. In fact, it will still need other 400 police reservists. The reason why Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo brought a Motion here last time on payment of reservists and we passed it was because he knew there were more in his county and Turkana County. For the first time, we have 200 police reservists in Elgeyo- Marakwet County. It is also a lie to say that police reservists are ...

Thank you Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I appreciate and I will remain responsible. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, this is not an act that happened just like that. As I told you, there are 649 police reservists in West Pokot. That has helped to bring peace between West Pokot and Turkana. Part of Marakwet will now get the first 200 police The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale to mislead Kenyans that a budget can be hidden? Can there be a hidden expenditure in a budget when all the expenditures are itemized? Secondly, is the Senator in order to discuss documents that he has not submitted to substantiate in this House?

(Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki): Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I thank my colleagues who have contributed to this very important Motion. I also thank my colleague who moved this Motion on by behalf. This Bill is very important. It will help us get monies allocated to our counties. This being the final year for this cycle of elections, we hope that this money will be used well. Of course, our hopes have been dashed for the last four years. We are only hoping against hope that this time round, our county governments will see it fit to use the monies they receive ...
