• 19 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, not to begrudge the point, I was talking of a matter that is in the public domain--- view
• 19 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will withdraw from the perception created. The point I am making is-- view
• 19 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, out of respect to the Chair, I withdraw. If you allow me to make the final submission on this particular matter, those of us who have studied a little bit of public relations and media understand the agenda setting role of the media. The point I am trying to make is that the media needs to be careful when trying to set an agenda, so that they do not sweep under the carpet issues that have been raised to the fore of national discourse by using a popularity assessment similar to the one that was released ... view
• 14 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, Burundi is obviously between a rock and a hard place, the rock being an incumbent who is hell-bent on retaining power at all costs and the hard place being the military that is taking over. Unfortunately, the leaders and the summit that is supposed to mediate on this matter- we have some leaders who are famous for scrapping term limits in their own jurisdictions, but to the most specific question and the from Statement read by the Chairperson which I appreciate---. He has talked about an attempted coup yet yesterday President Nkurunziza talked about an imaginary ... view
• 7 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to also support this Parliamentary Service (Amendment) Bill that seeks to establish a National Assembly Service Committee and Senate Service Committee that shall work under the control and direction of the Parliamentary Service Commission. Having listened to some of the contributions by my colleagues, who have been in Parliament for a long time, it is obvious that the institution of Parliament in this nation has come a long way. The Senate Minority Leader told us a story of the years gone by, where the parking yard of Parliament resembled a garage yard, because Parliamentarians ... view
• 7 May 2015 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I wish to support the Motion of Adjournment and associate myself with the sentiments expressed by previous speakers, the Mover, that is, the esteemed professor and Senator for Kisumu County. Not too long ago, Air Malawi collapsed due to debts. Currently, it is under the hammer. It is becoming increasingly likely that Kenya Airways could go the same direction – God forbid. I do not have the privilege of understanding the internal workings of Kenya Airways. However, in my professional experience, I know how businesses and corporates are run. My reading of the problems with Kenya Airways ... view
• 7 May 2015 in Senate: which was the much touted project to turn around Kenya Airways has been dismissed. Nine Dreamliners that were ordered, only three have been delivered and now they are going to leaseback arrangements for the remaining Dreamliners. They have hired a consultant to help them in debt restructuring immediately after Naikuni left. It might be important for this House to find out what is it about the former CEO that makes the key strategic decisions that he made to be reversed immediately after his exit. Kenya Airways is borrowing to pay staff salaries. We have been told that they have not ... view
• 2 Apr 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I wish to comment on and support this Motion on Adjournment. By the time we come back to this House, it will be almost 30 days following the warning that was given by the President for those people implicated, those who have been accused or those who are rumoured to be corrupt to step aside for investigations. I hope that in those 30 days when we come back, there will be some action that will have been undertaken. Unfortunately, you need to have some level of craziness to expect that there will be action. When ... view
• 2 Apr 2015 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, probably donation is the wrong word to use. Maybe “robbery” could be a better term to use. The word “donation” is more like a voluntary move. In this case the Minister was not taken out of his own volition. 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
• 1 Apr 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I would like to express my gratitude to the Head of State for making this Speech to Parliament. Evidently, the President has very good speech writers. His speeches tend to be laced with drama and suspense. Probably, the standing ovation was as a result of the drama rather than the content. However, I still wish to congratulate him. In the Speech, the President starts by saying that the state of the nation is strong, our economy is growing, we are more secure and our place in the community of nations is respected. As we ... view
