• 16 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it is safer to stick to the argument that Wednesdays should be set aside for voting. Therefore, we should mobilize Senators to be here as from 2.30 p.m. to vote. As Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale said, the Whips on both sides should lead a little bit harder because at some point we were just down by one person. Maybe if we had rung the bell, we would have returned one or two Members to be here to vote. It is a challenge that we have to deal with because we are not like the “lower House” which ... view
• 16 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would like to congratulate the students of Alliance High School because the school has been a role model for all of us. I did not go to Alliance High School, but I went to one of the best schools. That is St. Patrick’s High School in Iten which was one of the top schools in last year’s Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE). Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I preached in Alliance High School a few years ago on invitation of the Christian Union (CU) and the then principal, Mr. Khaemba, who is now a County ... view

• 16 Mar 2016 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I have the privilege and honour of moving the Fisheries Management and Development Bill (National Assembly Bill No. 18 of 2014). This is a very important Bill in many ways. First of all, it wants to mainstream the exploitation, preservation and protection of fisheries and aquatic resources in this country. For a long time, this nation has survived by just dealing with agricultural products and livestock. However, there are many other resources in this country which have since been discovered. Places that we called marginalized in the past are now the new frontiers of ... view

• 16 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I take it to mean that Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale just wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to pass information. I agree with you that there is no relationship between what he has with what I raised. Should there be corruption in any sector, whether the energy or agriculture sector, we must always condemn it. The only compliment from Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale should be to the extent that other institutions of Government must not condone this kind of corruption that I am talking about even in the fisheries sector. There is a culture around the people ... view

• 16 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would like to emphasize that the fight against corruption is about people and actors being brought to book. I was laughing when Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale was trying to insinuate that he supports Ms. Ann Waiguru.

• 16 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, thank you for the good ruling. I have always said that as a nation, one of the factors that undermine the fight against corruption is the politicization of the vice; where we just want to gain political mileage without adherence to facts. We must be very careful when a person is under investigation in a matter of such magnitude. We must not lend credence to everything that they try to hang on. If that be, we sometimes need to lock up those people in cells as we investigate the people they are The electronic version of ... view
