• 20 Apr 2016 in Senate: (Sen. (Prof) Kindiki): Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I thank you and my colleagues from the Majority and Minority sides. Sports is a unifying matter in this country. Even as we seek national cohesion and unity, this is one of the areas that can help us form certain things that bind us together. I have listened to the useful remarks and comments that have been made. I take this opportunity to repeat and re-affirm the commitment that I made to my brother, the Senate Minority Leader and other colleagues who have given useful input that can improve this Bill. I will ... view
• 20 Apr 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, first, I congratulate the Mover of this Motion who is the Chairperson of the Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights for his able leadership. As part and parcel of the Mediation Committee, it was natural when we met, that all other lawyers - we are all lawyers except Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale - submitted generously and automatically to the leadership of the senior counsel. He did a fantastic job in leading us in so far as the mediation of this Bill is concerned. As Sen. Wako has said, the outcome of this Bill is what we ... view
• 20 Apr 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Am I in order to request Sen. M. Kajwang' who comes from the same county with one of the fiercest critics of the Oversight Fund, hon. Milly Odhiambo who not so long ago enjoyed a whistle-blowing session with Sen. M. Kajwang' to use that comradeship to win us more supporters? view

• 19 Apr 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is unfortunate that no Member of the Committee on Education is around.

• 19 Apr 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to seek clarifications, very well aware of the Intergovernmental Relations Act which makes it very clear that funds for funding the Council of Governors (CoG) and the Summit shall be contributed by the Treasury. What legal framework informed county governments to make the contributions we are talking about here? I am asking this question knowing very well that the amount of money contributed by the 47 counties purposely for meetings, exchanging ideas and consulting is about Kshs1 billion. It is only Kshs2 million less to make it Kshs1 billion. We all know what Kshs1 ... view
• 19 Apr 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Governor of Murang’a who, unfortunately, is your Governor and you must accept that part. There was also the attempt of impeaching the Governor of Kericho, the Governor of Makueni and the Deputy Governor of Machakos. Is it a devolved function for some counties to spend money in paying lawyers to defend public officers facing impeachment charges? My understanding of the law is that when you are facing a criminal charge such as an impeachment or an impropriety like impeachment, it is personal. You cannot use devolved money to defend yourself. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, unfortunately, ... view
