• 13 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, on a point of order. Thank you for giving me an opportunity. I am not assisting the Governor, but being a lay person, it is important to inform him that we are not here to mitigate or for him to give us a record of what he has done but to answer to the charges that are placed before the House. That is very important in case you lose your time in the process. view
• 13 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we find ourselves in this little mix because we put a little pressure on the lawyers for the assembly to move faster than they intended. We did not give them an opportunity to lead the witness in the normal manner and place evidence on record. They could have even shown the witness these volumes and asked him whether they are the documents they collected and placed before the assembly, and whether they The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 13 Sep 2016 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker Sir. Can you allow me to speak seated? I cannot stand. I have to push my books off. view

• 8 Sep 2016 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, I will be very brief. Indeed, I join my brother to laud Senators for being readily available to be called upon to disrupt their recess to come to attend to matters of national importance and national concern. If you look at the input we have had even the previous sittings that were extraordinary, Members were sitting for long hours beyond the normal sitting time. I can envisage the intended proceedings in the matter of the Governor of Nyeri, this House maybe obligated to sit sometimes if need be up to midnight; meaning in one single ... view
• 8 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would wish to inform the distinguished Senator for Kakamega County, also known as the bullfighter, that in response to what the distinguished Majority Leader has asked, Eurobond House is situated on Forest Road. It is an eight storied building, clad with a glass facade and constructed by a man called Mr. Kiarie from Kiambu. Mr. Kiarie Mbugua is very well known in many circles in this Town. Lawyers like Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki, Sen. Wako, Sen. Orengo, Sen. Kilonzo and I, know of the doctrine of Res ipsa loquitor . As a student of law yourself, I ... view
• 8 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I did not intend to speak to this but my distinguished brother having raised the matter, we indeed discussed extensively about it with him at the Office of the Clerk yesterday. When I retreated to do further reading and look at the comparable jurisdictions, including Philippines, I noted that in all those jurisdictions - all grounded in the common law system like we do - the proceedings, once they end, the House goes to a direct vote. Nobody retreats to write a reasoned judgment or ruling. It is the vote of the House that is the decision ... view
• 8 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I wish to second this Bill. I start by saluting the Committee of 14 ably headed by Members of this House, the distinguished Senator for Siaya and the Senator who doubles as “the King” under whose jurisdiction, the Senate Majority Leader falls. This Committee did an exemplary job, at least, at the end of a foul mood where people were injured, lives lost and the country had come to a level where uncertainty was becoming the order of the day. You heard of business people in Nairobi still counting their losses and The electronic version of ... view
• 8 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it is obvious that the distinguished Senator for Nyeri was not listening and he was not even ready to prosecute a point of order because the reason he stood up to say “point of order” is because the nominated Senator sitting ahead of him looked at him suggestively. He then stood up and said; “point of order”. What I was talking about is the future. Yesterday, I said how honourable you are and I cannot change my opinion. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, Clause 6 of the Bill creates an offence by members of staff of the ... view
