Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we are trying to do what we are supposed to do. I would like to quote Standing Order No.117(1)(e) which states that a Senator commits an act of gross disorderly conduct if the Senator deliberately gives false information to the Senate. Sen. Osotsi, a respectable Senator for Vihiga, has given false information. He said that in the President’s Address---

I am not talking about what you have said. The Deputy Speaker ruled on the issue of Kshs2 billion. Sen. Osotsi in his submission alleged that the President never mentioned anything about corruption. If you look at Paragraph 19 of the President’s Address, he said that he will seek additional resources to support the bottom-up scaling of justice and empower the Judiciary to acquire capacity and develop infrastructure needed to more efficiently adjudicate and expeditiously conclude corruption cases.

In my opinion, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Senator for Vihiga is completely out of order to mislead the House that the President, in his address, did not touch on corruption.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. First and foremost, I wish to state that we are now engaged in a debate of not appreciating the times we are living in. They want to force a marriage that is already broken.

You have to listen to me, my colleagues. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Senator in question; Sen. Ali Roba, is in this House. He is the Party Leader of the Party in question. The Constitution has given him the freedom of choice of where he wants to belong. That notwithstanding, we also find ourselves in a situation where a person stands here and tells us that he is the Secretary General of a Party and that he signed whatever document that he signed. However, at the tail end of his speech, he wants you to tell him what the coalition has ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I had spoken to the point of order of Sen Omogeni. I now support the Motion as has been presented by the Senate Majority Leader, seconded by the Senate Minority Leader and supported by the Senator for Siaya, Sen. (Dr.) Oburu Odinga. From the onset, I state that I was sent here by the people of Nyandarua County to come and represent them. As somebody has already mentioned, the people on Nyandarua County are not interested on who is the Member of the Senate Business Committee; they are interested in the business that we shall be transacting ...

he wants to be, just like any other Senator who is in this House has chosen the side that they would want to be in. We should respect his choice. In that regard, his nomination and indeed and that of the other members who are in the Senate Business Committee is in order. I support. I would not want to speak about the colleagues who are on the other side. I will speak for my colleagues who are on the Government side. We are interested in pushing the legislative agenda of the Government of Kenya Kwanza on whose ticket we ...

I will come in some other time because there is still time. The Senator for Turkana mentioned young and old Senators who are here. I might be one of the youngest at 31 years, as a Senator representing the people of Nyandarua County. However, there is something we call the equality of the vote. I am the youngest. I have tremendous respect for the Senator for Siaya. Both of us are colleagues despite our age differences. Therefore, we shall discharge our mandate. We shall use his experience and he shall depend on my energy and then move this Senate to ...
