  • 3 Apr 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I join you in welcoming the students and teachers from St. Peter’s Minor Seminary, Mukumu. This seminary is in the region where I come from and it is the foundation of Catholicism in our region and the seat of our Bishop, Bishop Obanyi. As I welcome the students and their teachers, this is a country where public and private morals are rapidly diminishing. So, when we see students from a seminary where they are being taught to be propagators and custodians of public morality, we feel very happy. I want to encourage both the students and their ... view
  • 26 Mar 2019 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
  • 26 Mar 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we were getting ready to supplement questions on the statement by Sen. (Dr.) Zani on the 100 per cent transition policy. I am sorry we were busy consulting, and you went straight to the Chairman without giving us an opportunity. I wonder whether you can allow us to say one or two things, because this is a highly controversial policy, which is being poorly implemented. We need to load on the Statement so that the Chairman can bring more cogent and deeper answers. view
  • 26 Mar 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. In addition to the request by Sen. (Dr.) Zani, the Chairman of the Committee on Education should tell this House and the country the following- (1) The policy, as pronounced by the immediate former CS for Education, was that regardless of the results garnered, every child who sat in the Standard Eight exams must go to Form One; or else parents will face penal action. He should, therefore, tell this House and the country whether the requirement for qualification to go to Form One after sitting for the examinations has been suspended or waived. (2) ... view

  • 20 Mar 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I join you and my distinguished younger brother from Vihiga County, Sen. Khaniri, in welcoming the delegation of colleagues from Vihiga County Assembly. These are colleagues and I know each one of them personally because we interact with them very regularly in many public fora. view
  • 20 Mar 2019 in Senate: I encourage them – like Sen. Khaniri has said and this, indeed, applies to all other counties – that county assemblers and their units are the primary oversight institutions. They must learn the art of not only passing budgets, but tracking budget implementation to see that no money goes astray. Many counties are not accountable in the manner that is satisfactory to this House. I know that Vihiga County has one of the finest governors in this country; a man who was so distinguished as a Member of Parliament (MP) in the last two Parliaments. I encourage you, as our ... view
  • 20 Mar 2019 in Senate: I equally welcome the students from the University of Nairobi, Institute of Diplomacy and International Studies. This is an Institute that I have had a very long relationship with. I used it greatly to train diplomats from nascent countries like Somalia and South Sudan to enable them start functioning as States. I encourage them to also be connected with Parliament because Parliament is an active face of diplomacy that any country that wants to move forward must use. view
  • 19 Mar 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to give a Notice of Motion. view
  • 19 Mar 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to give Notice of Motion for Adjournment. I beg Members that when I finish moving, those who support to stand up. Pursuant to Standing Order 34, the Senate do now adjourn to discuss a matter of definite urgent national importance; namely the state of drought, starvation and food security in the country, specifically in Turkana, Baringo, 14 other counties and other parts of the northern Kenya. I thank you 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
