  • 7 Mar 2018 in Senate: I just have two points. I will avoid all matters that are being contested in court. I will only touch on one. Point No. 1 is a very straightforward and harmless statement from the Chairperson. According to the Government records, Joshua Miguna Miguna was born on 31st December, 1962 in Nyando, present day Kisumu County, thus he becomes a citizen by birth. Article 16 is very clear. “A citizen by birth does not lose citizenship by acquiring a citizenship The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

  • 6 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to give notice of the following Motion: That pursuant to Standing Order No.34 (1) The Senate adjourns to discuss a definite matter of urgent national importance regarding insecurity in Mt. Elgon Constituency of Bungoma County. view
  • 6 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, pursuant to Standing Order No. 34, I seek leave to move that the House adjourns to discuss a matter of definite urgent national importance regarding insecurity in Mt. Elgon Constituency of Bungoma County, where in the last one month, over 33 people have been brutally murdered, some children, women and families wiped out. view
  • 6 Mar 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I wish to ride on this statement and request the Chairperson – when he or she brings the answer – to table in this House the following; the number of foreign-owned companies licensed to mine in Kenya and where they are mining; the quantum of mining per annum, the income thereof and how much it benefits both the local communities and the National Treasury. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
  • 6 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in giving the statement, could the Chairman also bring information from the Chair of the National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) Mr. Francis Ole Kaparo, who was very quick in summoning Governor Ngilu to his office to question her about banning logging and charcoal but has maintained a conspiracy of silence and he is making some faint noises about the song that is derogatory in nature and that is likely to inflame ethnic passions in the country? Equally important, if Kaparo summoned Charity Ngilu, the Governor of Kitui County, for banning logging, is he telling the country ... view
  • 6 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I never defended Gov. Charity Ngilu; I only asked a question about her being summoned for interrogation. Secondly, there is no Standing Order – and Standing Orders spring from the Constitution – that bars a Member from commenting on or asking about a matter under investigation. It is not covered under the Sub Judice rule. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
  • 6 Mar 2018 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. It has become a routine now that every time I am on the Floor, my colleagues who are about two or three, for no reason whatsoever, feel very agitated. They stand up and purport to raise points of order that are actually calculated at derailing what I am saying. I need your protection on that. More importantly, the question that I was pursuing is in public knowledge; that the Chairman of National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC), hon. Francis ole Kaparo, summoned Gov. Charity Ngilu--- view
  • 6 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am on a point of order. For my colleagues who may be new in the House, when one is on a point of order you cannot rise on a another point of order. I lauded the Deputy President for banning logging. I have also said that if Gov. Charity Ngilu and is being pursued by law enforcement agencies, are they going to turn the same heat on the Deputy President, which I do not agree with? view
  • 6 Mar 2018 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. First of all, I am sorry I called for a point of order when Sen. Wamatangi was on the on the Floor. What made me do that is that he did not call for a point of order; he just raised his hand as if he was in a classroom. view
