• 31 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, is the Senate Minority Leader in order to mislead Kenyans and this House that he is seconding the Motion and thanking the President, when he is criticizing and rubbishing what he said? view
• 25 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I rise on a point of order to request you to take control of this House. Some of the Members are dangerously engaging in what could be disorderly conduct. Once you have made your own ruling that somebody should substantiate or withdraw and apologize, there can be no debate after that ruling. view
• 25 Mar 2015 in Senate: If somebody does not either withdraw or apologize, then the consequences in the Standing Orders should follow. I am just requesting that you exercise your authority as the Speaker and enforce the Standing Orders of this House. Why is the Senate Minority Leader standing up before you give him the Floor?

• 17 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, there are two issues. view
• 17 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I was saying, there are two issues, the first one is on the ceilings. You recall sometime last year, they circulated leaflets on the Floor of the Senate purporting to set some ceilings to the county assemblies— view
• 17 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, they were and we rejected them on the basis that the Standing Orders of the Senate do not allow the Senate to be approached through leaflets. The next thing we heard was that there were, indeed, ceilings being imposed. The question is: when did those leaflets become law that they were to be obeyed by the county assemblies? This is a fundamental procedure flaw that must be addressed through our Committee, chaired by the great Senator for Mandera. We need a proper report on the legality of those ceilings through our own processes. It is incumbent upon ... view
