• 20 Feb 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, cases of police brutality against unarmed peaceful citizens are on the rise. When the Chair of the Committee on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations brings the Statement, could he tell this House under what circumstances and what provoked the incident for the police to unleash live ammunition on citizens that were peacefully demonstrating, in line with the provisions of the Constitution. Secondly, as a matter of emphasis, have the officers who carried out this cowardly and heinous act be disarmed, arrested and locked up ready for prosecution for the homicides that they committed? Murder is murder; ... view
• 15 Feb 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on Finance and Budget, the Committee that I belong to, is not taking his work seriously. The issue asked affects even his county. Counties are grinding to a halt countrywide. It does not need rocket science to extract an answer as to why funds have not been disbursed and when they will be disbursed. In fact, this is a matter I would have expected the distinguished Senator for Mandera to tell this House that he will bring an answer on Tuesday next week, because it is not a matter that will ... view
• 15 Feb 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, through you, I want to encourage the Senate Majority Leader not to attempt to do your work. When issues are raised on the Floor and there is an exchange on whether the matter is urgent or not, he is a stranger to it. This involves the Committee Chairperson, the Questioner and the Chair.

• 15 Feb 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, before we hear from him, allow me to ride on that Statement. When the Chairperson is answering the issues raised by the distinguished Senator, he should tell this House about the National Council for Persons with Disabilities (NCPWD). This organization owns very prestigious properties in this town. It has Rehema House on Kaunda Street near Corner House and Lornho House. It also has Rehema House in Westlands on Rhapta Road and several other properties that generate income. This Council and its predecessor in title have been in place for the last close to 30 years. Could the ... view
• 15 Feb 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to join the Senators who are showing some displeasure with the time the Chair is proposing. To begin with, at the level of common sense, driving 1,000 heads of cattle is not easy. I would expect the Chair, in the interim, to even tell this House that after this Sitting, he will get the Inspector General of Police to send helicopters. If you are in Boeing up there you can see 20 heads of cattle walking, what about 1,200 heads of cattle? Giving affected families’ food--- The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is ... view
