  • 15 Sep 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I can say without any fear of contradiction that Mama Miradi had problems walking all the way. I urge Sen. Orengo and Sen. Poghisio to cause you to view
  • 15 Sep 2020 in Senate: The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
  • 15 Sep 2020 in Senate: have a Kamukunji. Let us look at what we went to court for and what we are achieving in the process of the consent. Going to the future, this House should reclaim its position and Constitutional relevance in the dispensation of the new order in this country. view
  • 15 Sep 2020 in Senate: Like Sen. Orengo said, if you look at the Constitution on the issue of what a Money Bill is, it is fluid. It says that a Money Bill is a Money Bill. It does not say anything beyond that. It has now been left to the National Assembly to decide what is a Money Bill and what is not. We need to have defined parameters on what it is. The Supreme Court said they cannot envisage any legislation that does not touch on counties. They must all come here. view
  • 15 Sep 2020 in Senate: I urge that tomorrow’s proceedings in court and the parties can consent to stay anything to a later date so that we have clarity of these issues. view
  • 8 Sep 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you for the opportunity. The distinguished Senator for Elgeyo-Marakwet has purported to challenge the Senate Majority Leader and distinguished Senator for West Pokot. The Speaker’s Rules, Part 1 (v) says: “Senators are required not to enter the Chamber, Lounge or Dining Room without being properly dressed.” It is very clear. “A Senator shall be dressed in a coat, collar, tie, long trousers, socks, shoes or service uniform, religious attire or search other decent dress as may from time to time be approved by the Speaker.” Mr. Speaker, Sir, what I am seeing some Senators wearing, certainly ... view
  • 8 Sep 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have no problem with what they hold. I have every problem with conducting themselves in a manner that demeans the stature and status of our House. When I see my brother from Mandera who is my former ambassador--- Ambassadors are well known for strictly adherence to etiquette and good behaviour. When I see them degenerating to a manner that is totally unbecoming and unhelpful, I feel very sorry for this House. view
  • 8 Sep 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have cited the rules and they are very clear. Therefore, what Sen. Murkomen was challenging falls flat on its face. view
  • 8 Sep 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, when I heard you reading this Petition, I turned to the Senator next to me and told him that this is the most frivolous Petition that has ever come to this House. A citizen tells us he was working in a department. He was accused of taking a bribe. He was taken to court. He was not even acquitted and the case was withdrawn. Then he is gratuitously taken back to his job and transferred to another department. Then he runs to the Senate and says that, that is wrong. It is something that this House should ... view
  • 8 Sep 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, be that as it may, if this Petition is committed to any Committee, that Committee should take the shortest time possible to dispose it off. I thank you. view
