• 8 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I beg to second this Bill. Once again, I salute the Committee of 14 and its leadership; including Sen. Orengo and Sen. Muthama. I take this opportunity to repeat the appeal to the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) on the issue of those who have been charged in activities running up to these negotiations. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, let me start from where you asked a question. Actually, the word “shall” does not obligate the electoral commission to mandatorily conduct nominations but it is upon the request of a party. Once a party requests, it must ... view
• 8 Sep 2016 in Senate: Captured! view
• 8 Sep 2016 in Senate: Point of information! view
• 8 Sep 2016 in Senate: I have been challenged and I will briefly say as follows. The distinguished Senator for Tana River County who is a good friend of mine was elected on Federal Party of Kenya (FPK) ticket, then led by Cyrus Jirongo. Jirongo signed an agreement with CORD and he stood as a Senator for Kakamega on his party ticket, competing with Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale on a CORD arrangement. When we came to the Senate, the first person to commit an act of treachery to CORD was none other than Sen. Bule who turned up in an immaculate white suit; brand new and ... view
• 8 Sep 2016 in Senate: On a point of order Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Is the Leader of Majority in order to tell us that his level and degree of respect for Sen. Musila is predicated on how long he speaks? view
• 8 Sep 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. That is not right. What the distinguished Senate Majority Leader had done earlier was correct. Even when you reply, you finish and move. That is the correct procedure. view
• 8 Sep 2016 in Senate: Secondly, there was an exit at the back. view
• 7 Sep 2016 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity to second this Motion. This is a culmination of almost a year of public altercations and wrangles in Nyeri County between the Governor and the Assembly. I say so because all this has been a matter of public knowledge in the media, everywhere. Before I go into the substance, I would like to advise our colleagues from the National Assembly from Nyeri County. I saw a grouping of them making unhelpful statements about the Senate and demanding that the Senate must uphold the impeachment of their Governor. This Senate is not a ... view
• 7 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, allow me to also appreciate the right of the House to decide in the manner that they deem fit like they have. I also defend the integrity and efficacy of the committee system. I always take pride in the fact that the late hon. (Dr.) Bonaya Godana, hon. Julius ole Sunkuli, hon. Henry Obwocha and myself are the fathers of the committee system in our parliamentary system. We will stand everywhere to defend the committee system. Mr. Speaker, Sir, be that as it may, I encourage all the Members that the task ahead will demand that we ... view
• 7 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish it were contemporaneous with the response of Sen. Sang. It vindicated my assertion here. Where Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, Sen. Khaniri, Sen. Wako and I come from, we have a common saying. Seven Senators voted yes yet I expected only two votes; mine and that of the Senate Majority Leader. I thought those others may have been driven by their synchronisation but none stood up except Sang. Sang. Where I come from, there is a saying that, when one is standing next to a pack of dogs and you lift your stick, the thief among them ... view
