• 25 Sep 2018 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. view
• 25 Sep 2018 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, it is out of order for Sen. (Eng.) Mahamud to insinuate that some of us are opposing the Bill. As a Member of that Committee, I stood here and I pointed out clearly that it was important for this House to have gone through the Committee Reports first before we debated it. That was an earlier intervention that I made. The Speaker then said that since the Bill is in its Second Reading stage, we proceed because during the Third Reading we will bring all the amendments. view
• 20 Sep 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for allowing me to ride on this Statement requested by Sen. Pareno. view
• 20 Sep 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the issue of the EAPCC is not something new. It has brought a lot of untold suffering. When people started losing their jobs in this Company, the Government ought to have been alarmed that this was going to create a big problem in the community. There are about 500 Kenyans of Maasai origin coming from Kajiado and Narok counties who have been rendered jobless. These people think that they are being targeted because they are from one clan versus the other clan. It is this thought that this has raised political tension in the area and ... view
• 20 Sep 2018 in Senate: I wish that this Committee moves expeditiously to visit the site, to interrogate those people and meet with the employees. You are aware that there was a lot of politics about other companies being allowed to come in to this country. The EAPCC is a state corporation; something that we hope we can be proud of as being our own. We have all these resources; we have a lot of clinker and other raw materials. The people of Kajiado County should benefit. view
• 20 Sep 2018 in Senate: I really support this Statement. I hope that those people who have been rendered jobless, who have been sent home--- It got even nastier to a point where people are being given compulsory leave. Unfortunately, they all have--- view
• 20 Sep 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would really like, in conclusion, to encourage the Senator for Kajiado County who is here--- In fact, this House has got three Senators who happen to be from Kajiado. If they can all come together and support the Committee to ensure that if it is not a clanism issue but a real crisis, then a way is found to resolve the matter. I support. view
• 20 Sep 2018 in Senate: On a point order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 20 Sep 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir--- The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 20 Sep 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to also comment on this very sensitive matter. I rise to support this Motion on the rising cost on public debt and taxation. Madam Temporary Speaker, we are at cross roads in this country. If you go outside there, you will see what Kenyans are going through. You should not blame the Senators when there is a revolution in this country within a short time. This is because Kenyans out there are sick and tired of the public debt. Currently, we are paying over Kshs700 billion a year and next ... view
