• 28 Mar 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I will advise the Chairperson to bring a Statement within the next two weeks. However, I also want to ride on the Statement. I want to demand that over and above the information sought by the distinguished Senator for Kakamega County, we want to hear from the Chairperson regarding insecurity in this country. People are being gunned down in broad daylight and property is being destroyed in Baringo, West Pokot, Samburu, Nairobi and everywhere and Jubilee keeps telling us that they are in control. We want to know what the Government is doing to provide adequate security ... view
• 28 Mar 2017 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to make a few comments about this speech that fell short of anybody’s expectation, except for a few sycophants. At paragraph 144, the President said this:- “We must always remember that the calling of leadership is to serve, not to become rich through serving.” I hope his deputy was listening to him as he said these words. This is because we have a cabal around the President, which includes members of his family, who are not serving, but are becoming rich through serving. The President made a very good ... view

• 28 Mar 2017 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, there is absolutely no requirement in law or fact that when I say that what you have said is incorrect, I table something different. There is no requirement in any debate anywhere. I have said that I have even checked with the police. I keep my source of information privileged. They have told me the figures of the police ratio to the population are false. If they were true, why are we having so many serious security challenges everywhere? Why is my distinguished colleague, Sen. G.G. Kariuki’s county under siege which is not from serious criminals, ... view
• 28 Mar 2017 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am not requesting no time. I said that the President said our police population ratio is higher than that recommended by the UN. I said that statement was incorrect. I have even checked with the police and they have told me it is not true. What is there for me to substantiate? view
• 28 Mar 2017 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I do not want to be engaged in unhelpful polemics. I am carrying out a critic of the President’s speech. Unless we want to curtail free Speech even in this House, then I am afraid we are killing even the institution that is the bastion of freedom in the country. I have said and I want to repeat for avoidance of doubt. The President said the police population ratio is higher than the one recommended by the United Nations (UN) I said I have checked and I have been told by a senior police officer, I ... view
