• 14 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, from the outset, I would like to congratulate the County Assembly of Nyeri for carrying out their oversight responsibility with diligence and commitment. Apart from my own county, this is the first county assembly that I addressed with your permission outside my county. Of course I have addressed almost 10 counties. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I just want to say straightforward that first of all I have some lamentation to make. Because of constraints of time, we are unable to delve into issues before us. Be it as it may, out of the rush, I will just go ... view
• 14 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you. It is not easy to be a deputy and watch your boss having 10 minutes and you have none. Mr. Speaker, Sir, in conclusion, I would like to say that the issues raised therein can be addressed in a different forum but not in the most extreme decision of impeaching a governor. My decision is that the Governor must be set free. Thank you. view
• 14 Sep 2016 in Senate: (Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki): Mr. Speaker, Sir, may I say three things in reply to this Motion. First, I am concerned with matters corruption in this country. In the three and a half years I have sat in this Senate, I continue to be tormented with stories of carcinogenic wheelbarrows that cost Kshs100, 000 apiece, money being ferried in vehicles and there was one case where a governor spent public money to buy fish fingerlings to pour into moving waters.

• 14 Sep 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the Senator for Kakamega County – and the Chair needs to rule on this - to impute improper motive on all the Senators including Sen. Hassan, Sen. Orengo, Sen. Wako, Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr., Sen. Sang, Sen. Cheruiyot and Sen. Haji who have spoken publicly that they are not satisfied with the evidence and all the other issues and impute improper motive that the reason for that lack of satisfaction is corruption? This should not go unchallenged. view
• 14 Sep 2016 in Senate: (Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki): Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. That is why you got a First Class in the university. For the avoidance of doubt and for the information of Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, the fingerlings that were bought corruptly and poured into moving eleven rivers - this was done in Tharaka- Nithi. So, I speak against corruption with the greatest amount of pain and grimace that is possible. 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 Sep 2016 in Senate: (Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki): Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Somebody sent me a not so pleasant SMS as a Senator and I felt offended because you cannot direct me how I will vote. I have shared with few other Senators who received such offensive messages. Having said that, I do not support this impeachment but I beg to move the Motion. Thank you. view
• 13 Sep 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Counsel should take us to the specific lines and pages so that we can move faster. This is in terms of referencing so that it does not eat into his time. view
