  • 19 Oct 2021 in Senate: Compensation to the passengers who were majorly Kenyans comes from the Ethiopian Airlines. In law, if the Ethiopian Airlines need to be compensated by the manufacturers because there was a fault in the plane, that is a third cause of action. We are being told that a Committee of this House went to Seattle, visited the Boeing headquarters, met the management to discuss an accident that took place in Bole, Ethiopia, where were we lost people and then they bring us no finding. view
  • 19 Oct 2021 in Senate: I expected my distinguished learned friend to tell this House that following the inquiries that they made, they have made certain directions because this House does not beg; we give directions to Ministries. I thought that they would direct the Ministry responsible for the issuance of death certificates, if they have not been issued, issues them forthwith to the families. I had hoped that he Committee would direct the Attorney-General, as the principal legal advisor, in conjunction with the Law Society of Kenya (LSK) and any other agencies involved to assist families that lost their loved ones to access justice ... view
  • 19 Oct 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have read here and there in the media that people who were passengers on the flight from other nationalities, including citizens of the USA, were compensated within months. It is more than a year; families here are suffering because they lost their loved ones. The Committee has not even told us whether those who were traumatized and needed counselling got the counselling services from the Government or anybody else. This is truly not the expectation that we have on a Committee that has a galaxy of lawyers from this House. view
  • 19 Oct 2021 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir, view
  • 19 Oct 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, did you hear that wayward arrogance from the Chairperson? Senators do not make noise, we debate. Those of us who spoke here, did so without emotion and we simply pointed out as we must do, that the Committee has fallen short of expectation and glory. That cannot be noise and it is an imputation of improper motives on colleagues. More so, from a colleague that we hold in high view
  • 19 Oct 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
  • 19 Oct 2021 in Senate: esteem. We were not attacking the Chairperson, but the report. That he happens to be the conveyor of the poor report is neither here nor there. However, the buck ends on his table. For him to say we are making noise is the most unfortunate, uncalled for and in bad taste. Those of us who spoke to this matter take great exception. We urge the Chair to rule the distinguished Senator out of order, withdraw and apologise. view
  • 19 Oct 2021 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
  • 19 Oct 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the difficulty that my distinguished learned friend finds himself in is that the more he tries to explain, the murkier the matters become. I remember when that Petition was read here, we were here and commented on it. I think it was brought by Sen. Kang’ata. view
  • 19 Oct 2021 in Senate: Sen. Cherargei also owes this House an explanation because we are feeling exposed for no reason. If the petitioners demanded that they needed counselling because of trauma and they needed death certificates to pursue compensation, why did the Committee go to Seattle? view
