  • 7 Nov 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, is the distinguished Senator for Homa Bay in order to cast aspersions on a courageous young man, Sen. Prengei, who stood with men and women of courage and signed against the escalation of loans in this country? view
  • 7 Nov 2019 in Senate: Thank, you Mr. Speaker Sir. Sen. Cherargei, a young lawyer, has made us very proud this afternoon. The Statement he has brought to this House carries commitment, courage and hope that, indeed, we have, among our leadership, people who can stand up and say things as they are. They have the courage to tell the king that he is naked and not tell him he has a wonderful suit when he is naked. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

  • 7 Nov 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker Sir, the history of the Judiciary in this country, as has been said by the Senate Majority and Minority leaders, is a long story to tell. Sen. Orengo can remember that there was a European Judge called Dugdell, who used to write rulings and judgments and carry files to State House to read them to people in the dark days, to allow him to pronounce them in court because of fear. That was the time when Guy Muli had calmed the House and removed the security of tenure not only of judges, but of himself as well. Eventually, ... view

  • 7 Nov 2019 in Senate: former President Moi is in court himself. When you go to court, you go through lawyers who represent you. Everybody in this country knows that former President Moi has been in and out of court on land issues and many things. Former President Kibaki has also been taken to court. For your comfort, it is not only former President Moi, even former President Kibaki has been taken to court. Even President Uhuru has been taken to court; we even removed him from office through court. Do not worry about that. What we are saying is that we want a Judiciary ... view
  • 7 Nov 2019 in Senate: The junior officers who man the lounges at the airport are the ones who are overplaying themselves. I remember escorting Kofi Annan to the airport when he came here to help us sort out our mess and one very junior officer, from my office, who did not know that I was escorting Kofi Annan because I was still in the car, said that he cannot enter through a particular door. He said that „hapa haikubaliki‟. That man nearly fell when he saw me. He quickly opened the door for Kofi Annan. We have those kind of people whom Chinua Achebe ... view

  • 7 Nov 2019 in Senate: I want to urge Sen. Cherargei to move to the next level with this Statement. It should not end here. His Committee should summon the Cabinet Secretary for the Ministry of National Treasury and ask him to justify his conduct. They should also summon the Attorney General and ask him to explain the reason as to why he is not advising the President properly or ask him to tell us if the President is ignoring his advice. They cannot summon the Chief Justice but can listen to him if he is available. They should also call the Registrar of the ... view
