• 19 Jun 2018 in Senate: Yes, Madam Temporary Speaker. view
• 19 Jun 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I do not know whether Sen. Wako was trying to imply that my father could be in this House and that he is, probably, a Luhya. Madam Temporary Speaker, I hope that this will not ignite or create a problem that does not exist. This is because we know that the Abasuba matter has been used politically in the past when Suba District was created by the then President Moi. It was then a political ploy to create an enclave within Luo land. The Luo, the Abasuba and all these communities have cohabited and some ... view
• 19 Jun 2018 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. view
• 19 Jun 2018 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I appreciate the passion of Sen. Kang'ata. However, is he in order to say that you have to be rich to maintain a dialect? If it is richness, hon. Tom Mboya, hon. Evans Kidero and PC J. Nyakiamo of Barclays Bank are all from Suba. What kind of richness are you talking about? Are you talking about the richness that cannot withstand a lifestyle audit? view
• 13 Jun 2018 in Senate: As a Senator representing the lake region, Homa Bay County accounts for the greatest share of Kenya’s share of Lake Victoria. This is a story that we have been exposed to day in, day out. Today, it was Mageta and Hama islands. Every other day, you hear stories coming from Remba Island of how Kenyan fishermen are being harassed by Ugandan soldiers. Who should protect Kenyans from external aggression? It is clear in Article 42 of the Constitution that it is the military, but you will be surprised that there is no military in the area surrounding Lake Victoria. Probably ... view
• 12 Jun 2018 in Senate: Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir. I join my colleagues in supporting the Statement by Sen. Nyamunga. As a country, we forget that in 1990, Kenya attempted to build its first car, which was called the Nyayo Pioneer and about five prototypes were developed. For those of us who were alive around that time, we remember that the first car could not start. President Moi attempted to start it, but it stalled. It was not a great success. We spent close to Kshs1 billion on the project of coming up with a Kenyan car. From 1990 to date is enough time ... view
• 12 Jun 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to support and contribute to this Statement by Sen. Faki about the disappearance of persons. He was specific on the disappearance of persons from Mombasa County but this is a problem that affects the entire nation. In 2016, Amnesty International in their report, ranked Kenya high in extra- judicial killings, police killings and forced disappearance. This is a problem that we cannot just sweep under the carpet. All of us can relate, from Willy Kimani that Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. has talked about, J.M Kariuki who disappeared until he was found murdered and Robert Ouko ... view
• 12 Jun 2018 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. There is a rule in the Standing Orders about relevance. We are talking about pension funds. How relevant is Lamu Port-South Sudan-Ethiopia-Transport (LAPSSET) Corridor on the ongoing discussions? view
• 12 Jun 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Bill that is before the House on the County Governments’ Retirement Scheme. Even before I contribute further, I hope that this Bill is not being introduced in the two Houses of Parliament at the same time because it will be interesting to see how that will work out. The information that we had was that a similar Bill could have been brought before the National Assembly. If the same Bill is coming from both Houses at the same time, it might pose some constitutional challenges. However, because the Bill ... view
• 12 Jun 2018 in Senate: with them, they were up in arms. They felt that the Bill that we were attempting to push through at that point in time would hand over the control of county pensions to the national Government. I recall that the then Senate Majority Leader in the The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
