  • 18 Nov 2021 in Senate: Moi, former President Mwai Kibaki and all those pioneers. There is none that was addressing the gallery but the nation and the people of Kenya. My very good friend and champion of Maasai Culture, has to withdraw and apologize. view
  • 18 Nov 2021 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, first and foremost, it is wrong and incorrect to say that the MP for Westlands and Maj. Gen. Badi are sanitizing corruption. I stand to defend the MP for Westlands who is my younger brother, that I have never seen him in his conduct engage in any underhand practices and he has been--- view
  • 18 Nov 2021 in Senate: Secondly, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the fires of Gikomba Market have become too frequent for any reasonable person to imagine that they are accidents. If they are acts of arson by whichever individuals for whatever motives, the Government has to bring this to an end. Many traders in Gikomba are burdened with loans. They travel through very hard conditions to China, Thailand and everywhere to bring wares for selling but wake up in the morning and see all their wares up in smoke. Some do not even have insurance to fall back to. view
  • 18 Nov 2021 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
  • 18 Nov 2021 in Senate: Once your stocks are burnt down, first, there is no insurance that will pay you. Secondly, there is no bank that will cancel your loan because your wares were burnt down. You must be held to account. It is important that the management of Nairobi, under Governor Kananu and Maj. Gen. Badi, signs a public engagement that will bring to a permanent closure, save in very clear accidental conditions, these acts of criminality and arson that keep on occurring in Gikomba Market. Today you can predict that politicians of Narobi will run to Gikomba to donate iron sheets, poles and ... view
  • 17 Nov 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. First, I enjoin you in welcoming our visitors from the Gambia, a country that is an active member of the Commonwealth and the African Union (AU) and that has enjoyed a good relationship with Kenya. Feel welcomed. I hope you will pick something from us as your bigger brothers in continental politics. Allow me to remember, Ann Bensouda, who was my classmate in the Kenya School of Law (KSL) and who remains a very good friend. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have listened to this Petition carefully and it paints a poor picture of the NLC. ... view
  • 17 Nov 2021 in Senate: development and welfare of our country. They have provided schools which are well managed and health facilities which are sometimes much better than those offered by the Government and above all, looking after and protecting dispossessed and destitute children. That an organization that is profit driven can enter their property and lay false claim and then be aided and abated by the NLC is something this House cannot condone. I urge the Committee to move quickly and restore the proper rights of the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church has a long positive history in this country and has never been ... view
  • 17 Nov 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. It is unacceptable for a Petition to lie and wait before a Committee for more than a year. This Petition started when our brother, Sen. Kinyua from Laikipia, was the Chairperson of the Committee. When he became politically incorrect, they purged him. Sen. M. Kajwang, who is politically correct took over. view
  • 17 Nov 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I expected Sen. M. Kajwang’ to, at least, tender an apology on behalf of the Committee. We know it is not his mistake that an unacceptable trend has befallen the Committee, by keeping a Petition for one year. He did not do that. We must salute the people of Bunyore for being law-abiding citizens. In certain areas like we have seen between the people of Isiolo and Garissa, Makueni and Kajiado and other places, people just take up crude weapons and fight to restore and protect their territorial boundaries. That they came here, means they have value ... view
  • 17 Nov 2021 in Senate: boundary arguments between counties. As we go to elections, people will become more belligerent and impatient and can easily start compromising our peace and security. I also urge the Committee of Devolution and Intergovernmental Relations, that it is within their mandate in looking at how devolution is working, to also engage each county, to find out whether they are respecting the requirement, that 30 percent of employees of any particular county must come from outside the county. This will enable us to continue having a unitary State where somebody from Lamu County can work in Bungoma and somebody from Bungoma ... view
