• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: Corporations like Nike and energy drinks makers are making billions of shillings out of these people, yet when they come back to Kenya, we do not take note of them. When we wake up for morning television shows, we would rather discuss what was said at the Mau rather than the record breaking and the world records that have been made by our athletes. If the national Government does not honour these people, then county governments should proactively ensure that they give them their highest honours. view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in Homa Bay County, there are people who have contributed immensely to leadership politically and at the social and community level. I have in mind people like the late Hon. Osingo Migure. Probably, nobody knows him, but this was the second Member of Parliament (MP) for the area called Suba. He died in poverty because those days, they came to Parliament to represent, legislate and to oversight. It has now become a known fact. In fact, the society has adopted the attitude that if you go to Parliament, even if you went there empty-handed, it is ... view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: Whether it was Barabbas or another angel, the mobs would still decide that Christ was the one to be crucified. In our scenario, there will be cases where through this elaborate process, we will still get a Barabbas give national honours to them. What will we do if that Barabbas is inconsistent with the provisions and requirements of Chapter Six of the Constitution? view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I hope the Barabbas story did not make Members uncomfortable in any way, but--- view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: Yes, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there needs to be a linkage between the County Hall of Fame Bill and the National Honours Act. That way, when the County Hall of Fame Act produces candidates or proposals, where there is a feeling that there are inconsistent--- view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It has eliminated the little doubt that I had in mind. view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: I was also counting the time and I am surprised that it had been truncated. view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. If the advisory committees at these levels produce candidates, who people feel are inconsistent with the requirements of Chapter Six of the Constitution, there needs to be a procedure for dealing with that. I know that in the case of our colleagues who have been proposed for national honours, a public notice has been put out for members of public who might have any objection to raise them. That should also happen in this County Hall of Fame Bill. Beyond recognizing heroes and individuals, the proposer of this Bill, Sen. Murkomen, says that the ... view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: particular global order in the United States of America, South Africa and Europe. You find governments legalizing things that we find to be taboo in this part of the world. Our children and the younger generation, who sometimes there is a huge disconnect between the leaders and them, are watching YouTube, Netflix and all other syndicated channels. They watched Emmy Awards just the other day, where someone was awarded, went on stage and was proudly gay. He was the first person of that particular persuasion to get that high level of honours. It is now becoming normal. We can only ... view
