• 20 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, since everyone is declaring a capacity, I also want to welcome the young ladies from the two schools; in my capacity as a member of the Kenya Young Parliamentarians Association, I am an active Member with Sen. Wangari. I just want to encourage the young girls that youth or gender should not be a disability. It should also not be the basis upon which you request to be considered. If you are to look at gender, the world is moving to a situation where the leading economies are now being led by women. In the United ... view
• 20 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I thank you for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Bill. I thank and congratulate the Mover of the amendment Bill, Sen. Wangari, who is blazing the trail. She has been quite successful in getting her Bills considered. I will talk to her to find out what the secret is. The amendments that she has brought to this House are quite fundamental and significant. They touch the core of what a nation should provide to its citizens. I support this amendment Bill. I will suggest areas where we could amend and make the mother ... view
• 20 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, you understand the terrain better than I do. He might not have been in elective politics but we understand the politics he plays behind the scene, but I will be guided by your clarification. view
• 20 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, did he ever attempt to vie for a political seat? view
• 20 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am guided and will not make that reference. However, the Chairperson of NHIF is a presidential appointee, and the trend in this country is that rejected politicians or retired civil servants are posted to chair some boards. When someone has retired from the Civil Service, what other incremental value is he going to bring into these boards? We have to look at the composition of parastatal boards. This Jubilee Government promised to undertake significant reforms in parastatals, which has not been delivered. Legislation in this House keeps coming up with a new parastatal and authority ... view

• 20 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the point of order that I wanted to raise was not regarding the Mover. I want to seek your guidance on this specific matter before I proceed to second. Section 6A of the County Governments Act talks about the location of county governments. It states:- “A county assembly may by a resolution supported by at least two-thirds of the Members of the County Assembly (MCAs) and with the approval of Parliament, transfer the headquarters of the county government from the physical locations specified in the Third Schedule to such other physical location as it may consider ... view

• 20 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I appreciate the Ruling and I am still troubled in my mind but because the Speaker is always right, I will go by your direction. Ordinarily, I would have assumed that there will be evidence of the resolution of the county assembly. The fact that this matter has reached this level, I assume that the resolution was furnished and that the matter would not have come for Second Reading. view
• 20 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, there is no doubt that the Senate has the power to amend any Bill that it has passed but the matter in contention is not Clause 6A. As long as we are not amending Clause 6A, then for us to amend the Third Schedule, we must go by the provisions of Clause 6A which requires a resolution of the county assembly by two-thirds majority. view
