• 30 Mar 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, my point of order is in relation to the point of order raised by Sen. (Dr.) Ochillo-Ayacko. Procedurally, if there is an amendment that he proposes to bring, the Senate deliberates on it so that the Motion which has already been moved and seconded is contributed to as amended. I am being pragmatic in terms of the procedures. My friend, Sen. Khaniri, is contributing to the Motion the way it has been moved and seconded. We have an amendment to that.

• 30 Mar 2021 in Senate: My concern is one. I am second on the list to contribute. I will be contributing to the Motion as moved and seconded. If it can be amended and we vote on it, it will save us more time. There is no point for me to contribute on a Motion as moved and seconded when there is an amendment, which we must listen to.

However, the money that has gone to the county governments ... view

• 30 Mar 2021 in Senate: However, we in this Senate of the Republic of Kenya, which represents and protects the interest of counties as Article 96 of the Constitution says are only happy and clapping their hands.
