• 17 Oct 2024 in Senate: or accused of adultery be stoned to death, unfortunately, it looks like the same punishment was not prescribed for men. It was just for women to be stoned to death and yet it takes a man for a woman to commit adultery. Tonight, because the Constitution of the Republic of Kenya is just like the Law of Moses, it says if you are found guilty of political adultery, you should be stoned to political death. It is called impeachment. You are sent into political purgatory for 10 years. You cannot run for office. Mr. Speaker, Sir, we must deal with ... view
• 17 Oct 2024 in Senate: I am sorry, Deputy Speaker. The Deputy President has committed political adultery. view
• 16 Oct 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, my clarification is on paragraph 47 on the charge sheet. The National Assembly alleges that the Deputy President has several proxy companies and one of them is Agrobriq Investment Limited. In paragraph 48, the National Assembly alleges that Bhavika Nathalal Hirani is a proxy of His Excellency Rigathi Gachagua. Could the National Assembly provide some evidence because ground number seven is framed as serious reasons to believe that the Deputy President has committed a crime? Could there be some evidence to convince the House that there could be reasons to believe so? Finally, on paragraph 74, the ... view
• 16 Oct 2024 in Senate: Finally, which is this cooperative society whose name has been withheld? Could that information be provided to the Senate? I thank you. view
• 15 Oct 2024 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would like to congratulate you for that Communication that you have made. I also congratulate Sen. Dullo for escalating this matter to the Plenary. As a chair of a Committee, I have been seized of this matter and I am one of those chairs or the leaders of those committees that have gone to Isiolo County to carry out our constitutional mandate. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate. view
• 15 Oct 2024 in Senate: When the County Public Accounts Committee (PAC) landed in Isiolo, we were scheduled to have our meetings at the Isiolo County Assembly. The Speaker of Isiolo County Assembly and the entire Membership of the Assembly disappeared, including the Clerk. We were only left with the Serjeant-at-Arms. The governor, whom we had given notice that the Senate would be coming to Isiolo, was a no-show. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we could not get access to even the projects that the Committee had gone to inspect as part of its constitutional mandate. One of the projects was a market and the county ... view
• 15 Oct 2024 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the Inspector- General of Police was vetted by this House. Someone who is an appointee of the Senate cannot then have the guts to defy legitimate instructions and directions of the Senate. Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, the Senator for Kakamega, has gone down in history as having led a match to the Office of the Inspector-General of Police. We should never appear helpless. Finally, I want to encourage the citizens of Isiolo to go to the County Government's Act and push for a Motion for suspension of that county government The electronic version of the Senate Hansard ... view
• 15 Oct 2024 in Senate: because the activities of the governor and the ruling class in Isiolo are contrary to the common good of the people of Isiolo County. However, this conversation should not be localized to one governor or one county. We are seeing this problem across several other counties in the 47 county governments, and we need a solution. We need to strengthen the consequences for contempt of Parliament without subjecting them to judicial review. Thank you. view
• 14 Oct 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the issue of limits of judicial authority on independent institutions has been settled. I think we have seen some precedents that have been presented to us. Secondly, we need to make a distinction between procedural fairness and procedural technicality. Procedural fairness demands that we give the governor of Kericho County an opportunity to defend himself because he has been accused of gross misconduct. All sorts of allegations have been made against him. This is, therefore, his opportunity to defend himself against those allegations. There should be procedural fairness as required in our Constitution. The other aspect is ... view
• 14 Oct 2024 in Senate: petition in a foolscap, rather than on an A4 paper. We are getting different interpretations to the ruling that has been referred to by both parties. On this matter, we should not go with Rule No.30 of the Standing Orders, which empowers the Speaker to make a decision. I want to encourage us to do what we did in the case of the Governor for Nairobi City County, Hon. Sonko. Some affidavits were sworn by Members of the County Assembly (MCAs) that discredited the outcome of the vote. The Speaker ruled that we should allow all parties to prosecute their ... view
