• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: That is useful information, Madam Temporary Speaker. In fact, I have always confessed my personal admiration for the Senate Minority Leader and it gets better as I get older. I came here in 2013 with the exuberance of the youth and the excitement that we were now in Government. It was my first time to serve in Parliament and I thought that everything was in order and we were going to fix this country. I thought that we could use the state to fix this country. In a very short time; eight years, I have come to look at things ... view

• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: “8. (1) A search may be conducted without a warrant in exceptional cases where there are reasonable grounds to believe that evidence may be removed or destroyed.” In Kenya, we know that the exceptional cases become the norm. We can have a situation where a search is done without a search warrant just for them to go and profess in the court of law that Section 8 of this law, which was moved by Sen. Farhiya, states so and so. All these will be said when you are on the dock. They will say that this law was passed when ... view
• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: Let us have this law for posterity. Let us not focus on the governor or the Cabinet Secretary that we do not like today. I do not like several Cabinet Secretaries but I do not want a situation where a law is made for the short period that I am in the office or out of office. view
• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: Clause 12 states that- “12. The High Court may at any time vary or discharge an interim freezing order on application made by the Commission or a person affected by the order.” This means that the High Court can just wake up and vary an application made ex parte . It can decide to freeze one's s assets. All these things involve rights of citizens under Chapter Four of our Constitution. view
• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: We are now debating this Bill, and I know that the Second Reading will continue then we will have the Committee of the Whole. I implore Sen. Farhiya to relook at this Bill from a human rights perspective before we move to the Committee of the Whole where we will make amendments. The law should be in consonance with the Constitution. If this law is not in consonance with the Constitution, we might pass, it then it fails to go through in the National Assembly. The law can even pass all the stages just for it to be declared unconstitutional ... view
• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: I am not saying that we should not fight corruption. Corruption is the biggest problem that we are dealing with. Our counties are struggling to deliver services because individuals have enriched themselves. The fight against corruption is not weak because we do not have laws. We do have laws and institutions that are mandated to deal with the fight against corruption. The problem against the fight against corruption is that there are too many people who are conflicted yet they are the ones who are presiding over the fight against corruption. Therefore, conflict of interest is all over the place. ... view
