Is the Chairperson for the Committee on Finance, Commerce and Budget, the distinguished Senator for Mandera in order to insinuate that we are not saying that population is an important factor?

26 Feb 2015 in Senate:
Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this Motion. I would like to congratulate the Chairperson, Sen. Billow Kerrow and his Committee for a commendable job in analysing the BPS within a very short time and also inviting the chairpersons to input this Report. I was among the first chairpersons to appear before his Committee. I am impressed that all the other chairpersons raised the same kind of complaints about the time provided to interrogate this BPS, which is very short.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to join my colleague in congratulating Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo for this very important Bill. The existence of reservists has been there since Independence. I am surprised that my colleague, Sen. Wetangula, thinks it is something new. They have been there and they are doing a commendable job. In fact, they are in the last mile where the services of any Government official ends, if I could be protected –

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I congratulate Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo, that this unit is now institutionalized and that they do a very exceptional job in areas that are quite unreachable. They are the first response in any matters security in the last mile. So, we really appreciate the services of these very important Kenyans. We are very grateful that this matter has now been brought to have a legal framework. I would urge that this matter be fast-tracked so that the welfare of these people will be taken care of and they be formally included in the service, recognized and remunerated.

On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. I understand that in English you can say “my President” or “my Government” it is a feeling of a citizen being proud of her Government. It is not about her being the head or anything. It is about ownership and being a proud Member of the Government.

19 Feb 2015 in Senate:
On a point of order Madam Temporary Speaker. Is my colleague, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale in order to insinuate that the main purpose or reason for establishing this commission or for passing this Motion and allowing boundaries to be delineated clearly is to remove communities from one county to the other? While we know very well that a county like Isiolo, which has a very serious boundary problem, has quite a large number of Merus who will continue living in Isiolo even after the boundary dispute is resolved? I am sure that goes for a lot ---
