  • 7 Nov 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Senator for Murang‟a has a very good habit of seeking the Floor to say nothing. Let me finish. view
  • 7 Nov 2019 in Senate: I will conclude, Mr. Speaker, Sir. It is actually discourteous for the Senator to do what he is doing because we are not debating the Statement to vote on it. Nobody is opposing or supporting the Statement. We are talking about the State of the Judiciary in this country where he, as a lawyer, goes to practice law. We are of the view that these courts will only dispense justice if they are protected and allowed to be independent. I want to urge Sen. Cherargei to call the relevant offices and speak to them. He should look at the legislative ... view
  • 7 Nov 2019 in Senate: . In that case, he will get to learn that whatever he does today can come round to haunt him. Judge Ringera was my teacher and he would always tell us at the end of every lesson that; „my students, if you want to know the quality of a good law, imagine that law in the hands of your worst enemy. If you feel safe, then it is a good law.‟ Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
  • 6 Nov 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Allow me to note with appreciation the unusual heavy presence of Members in the House. view
  • 6 Nov 2019 in Senate: If we all attended the House like this, business would be transacted very well. view
  • 6 Nov 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have a request for a Statement on the heavy deployment of police officers at examination centers in the country. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing Order 48(1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Education regarding the excessive deployment of police officers during the ongoing national examinations. In the Statement, the Committee should - (a) Explain why the Ministry of Education has deployed an excessive number of heavily armed police officers at national examination centres during the just concluded Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) and the ongoing Kenya Certificate of Secondary ... view
  • 6 Nov 2019 in Senate: (c) Explain why, despite the heavy deployment of police officers, there are still cases of malpractices reported in the exercise. If there are any malpractices in the examinations, it is not an armed roberry that requires--- view
  • 6 Nov 2019 in Senate: Sen.Wamatangi, I know what you are waiting for. Please keep your cool. Mr. Speaker, Sir, if there are any malcpractices in the examinations, they are not armed roberries that require heavily armed police presence in examination centres. Children are likely to be intimidated by the presence of senior Cabinet Secretaries (CSs), Permanent Secretaries (PSs) and senior police officers armed to the teeth in examination rooms. I would want the Chairman to allay these fears; that in future, we will not, as a country, militarize our examinations to our children. view
  • 6 Nov 2019 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr, Speaker, Sir. view
  • 6 Nov 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I want to thank my distinguished nephew, the Senator for Nairobi City County, for that point of order. My good friend, the Senator for Bomet County, is always very studious and thorough. He has listened to almost half the House express disgust, concern, fear and outrage at the militarisation of examinations in this country. I would have expected him to note these serious concerns and give the House a date when he will summon the mandarins of Jogoo House for us to appear and interrogate them. view
