• 14 Feb 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thought that this matter was in court. Is it in order for us to discuss a matter that is before court? view

• 14 Feb 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we will be able to bring the answer to this question in three weeks’ time. As you are aware, we are dealing with the budget from next week.

• 7 Dec 2017 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Motion. I thank the Joint Committee for doing a good job in such a short time. This matter has been pending for a long time. We should have had this election in June this year. We have been holding back the other states of the EAC. We are happy that our brothers from NASA have joined us by submitting the names as required. The problem then was that there was difficulty in submitting the names as per the Regulations and Rules of the Community. The ... view
• 6 Dec 2017 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Motion on the National Urban Development Policy. This subject has been canvassed for a long time. In fact, if you look at this country, there is a serious problem of planning in urban areas. One wonders who is responsible for various activities within our urban areas and who approves those developments. However, there are actually a lot of haphazard developments coming up in our cities. If you look at Nairobi today, it has expanded and enjoins many towns like Thika all the way to Kajiado. That ... view
• 11 Oct 2017 in Senate: Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Bill. The Election Laws (Amendment) Bill (National Assembly Bill No.39 of 2017) amends the Election Laws Act and the Election Offences Act. The amendments in this Bill are very genuine. They are only providing clarity in the laws that are being amended. If there is a vacancy in the office of the chairperson, the law should provide for how to deal with the vacancy. There is a lacuna there. We are making provision on how a vacancy in the office of the chairperson will ... view
• 11 Oct 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker Sir, as I was saying before being interrupted by a colleague who was totally out of order, the Bill addresses the issue of the quorum of the Commission. It is only in order that we change the quorum because the Commission now has seven members. When this initial law was made, there were nine members of the Commission. Therefore, it is only fair that the numbers are adjusted accordingly. I see nothing wrong with that. The Bill is trying to make it clear, so that we can have some order within the Commission. The Bill also addresses the ... view
• 11 Oct 2017 in Senate: in the law. In fact, this Bill makes it clear as to what happens in the event that there will be a petition; what happens thereafter, who will call the elections; who will participate in the elections, and if you withdraw what happens. This Bill will make all these clearer. I would like to appeal to our colleagues who are not here and are busy confusing Kenyans. Kenyans are actually getting confused more and more. If they want to write themselves off, let them not write off Kenya because it is our country that we love dearly. They should come ... view
• 28 Sep 2017 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to second. view
• 28 Sep 2017 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Motion. There is no denying that we are still in an election cycle. We held elections on 8th August, 2017, but we are not yet done because of the petition which led to nullification of the presidential election by the Supreme Court. From that Supreme Court judgement, it is very clear that there are a lot of difficulties in the election laws that are in place today. Unless they are simplified, it would be difficult to carry out elections any further. The same court did ... view
