• 22 Jul 2015 in Senate: I would like at this point in time to, first of all, recognize and inform the Members that this is a Bill concerning counties. To make it even more clearer, if it was not a Bill concerning counties, it would not have come here. The decision as to whether it is a Bill concerning counties or not has already been made and so it is not a subject of debate here. I want to bring to the attention of the House the election date opinion of the Supreme Court which said that anything that touches on election, the welfare, and ... view

• 21 Jul 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, allow me to congratulate Sen. Khaniri before I say how many days I will require to bring a response.

However, that is why it has been committed to the Committee to find out whether it is an illegality and secondly as to whether that illegality is there at the moment. My responsibility is to request the House, that considering the comprehensive nature of this Statement and considering that this is not the kind of Statement you simply take to the Cabinet Secretary in charge of devolution; it is ... view
• 21 Jul 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Senate Minority Leader for raising that point of order so that all of us can listen to this. At the same time, I am happy that the Senate Majority Leader was laughing and not crying. view

This is really critical because there were certain counties that had county councils whose askaris had specific responsibilities to ... view
• 21 Jul 2015 in Senate: , but you find the governors security team? Who hires them and who pays them? I hear now governors have in their offices something called “confidential accounts” that Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale’s committee is pursuing. At the moment, for the benefit of all us, we should avoid an interim answer. You should give us one month and hopefully if the House goes on recess next week, it will mean that by the time we come back, we will have a very comprehensive answer on such an important issue. view
