This made Kenyans start thinking that there is an alternative route in the politics of this country.

• 4 Oct 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I know that we have gone past this, but I want to welcome the distinguished members in the Speaker’s Gallery who have come to this House on a learning mission. We, as the Senate - the protectors of counties and their governments - welcome staff from counties and encourage them to learn and pick best practices from this House.

When the Vice Chair brings a Statement, I want her to go beyond the Cheptulu murder and tell the Senate and the country what the Government is doing to arrest trigger-happy policemen who are shooting innocent citizens and killing them all over. Further, she should tell this House of oversight whether what I ... view

• 14 Sep 2016 in Senate: Your Excellency Governor and your Counsel, in all these proceedings, every governor goes to office with a running mate called the deputy governor. When the governor is away, the deputy governor should be there to do some of the things that you are being asked.

• 14 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is precedent setting. This is the first time this House sits as a Committee of the Whole to listen to an impeachment case.

In this process, just as we said, at the opening session, the cardinal rule is fairness, fair ... view
