• 11 Oct 2017 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir! view
• 11 Oct 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, for the respect of this House, it is absolutely ludicrous for a hon. Member to allege that the former Prime Minister, whom we respect a lot, has asked people to go and show us their underwear. What he needs to do is to not just to provide allegations or hearsays. The Standing Orders are very clear. He ought to provide the evidence, substantiate or he withdraws and apologises. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wait for you to rule on that. view
• 10 Oct 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you for this opportunity. It is imperative that we take serious consideration in setting up these committees because our people are suffering. In the Maasai Mara Game Reserve, for example, we have a huge human- wildlife conflict. We also have a problem with our domestic animals. Right now, we have a huge drought. There are things that need to be considered. It appears that in most cases, wildlife is given priority in this country because of the foreign income. It is sad, just like Sen. Seneta has alluded to, animals are more precious than human beings. ... view
• 10 Oct 2017 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have a couple of Statements. These Statements would probably go to a different Committee but I have decided to direct them to the Senate Majority Leader. view
• 10 Oct 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, two weeks is such a long period. Parents have paid tuition fees and there is no reason as to why a public university should be closed. I request to get this Statement before we go on recess on Thursday because this Senate Calendar is designed in a way. We will be on recess until 7th November, 2017. view
• 10 Oct 2017 in Senate: I said UoN and Mathare. view
• 10 Oct 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing order No. 46 2(b) to seek a statement from the Senate Majority Leader regarding the withdrawal of security officers attached to the former Prime Minister, the Rt. Hon. Raila Amollo Odinga and the former Vice President, Hon. Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka. In the Statement, the Senate Majority Leader should:- (a) explain the security entitlement to the former Prime Minister and the former Vice President as required by law; (b) explain the circumstances that led to the withdrawal of the security details attached to both the leaders; (c) confirm whether the withdrawal of security ... view
• 10 Oct 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am actually baffled by the Senate Majority Leader for trivializing this matter. This is not a joke. This relates not only to one particular person, but former state office holders. It is not in the prerogative of one body to determine when a particular former state officer is entitled by law to have security. Therefore, it is imperative that he provides a full statement on this matter on Thursday because, if you have been coming to the House regularly, you know that we will be on recess until 7th November, 2017. This is not an easy ... view
• 10 Oct 2017 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Last week I requested for a statement from the Senate Majority Leader on the issue of security at the Esoit, Naibor and Kimintet ward. It was supposed to be given today. view
• 28 Sep 2017 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I rise to oppose this Motion. My good friend, Sen. Murkomen, knows that this is an exercise in futility. Sen. Murkomen sat in the Supreme Court when it was delivering its judgement. If I can take him back to school, because sometimes I wonder why lawyers go to school and cannot interpret what is indicated there--- view
