  • 30 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, this is a fraudulent request. view
  • 30 Mar 2016 in Senate: She must be factual. view
  • 23 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have been a Member of Parliament (MP) representing this area for quite a long time. I laud the Chair for ruling that the issue of Changara is not a matter of Article 188 of the Constitution, but a matter that needs to be dealt with within the context of the Districts and Provinces Act and the survey that has brought this issue. For a start, this is not a matter of community conflict. The Iteso and Luhya who live in this area have so heavily intermarried that you cannot tell who is who. The next ... view
  • 23 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is a very critical point because if the chairman of the Committee may recollect, there are many schools that sit on land that was donated by generous members of communities and when these members die, their sons squander family assets, then turn round and demand land from the school thereby engaging schools in endless litigation. I know of many schools in my area where children or grandchildren of families that donated land have sold all family land and then turned to the school with succession papers claiming the land. Sometimes, they end up dispossessing the ... view
  • 22 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first, I thank you for obliging me have sight of your communication because I walked in after you had delivered it. We, as a House, and the Chair as our leadership - we either have it right or we do not. When a constitutional provision that is mandatory is violated, it cannot be cured by the discretion of either the Chair or even this House. This House cannot pass a resolution, for instance, to acquiesce to a constitutional violation. We have sworn to defend, uphold and protect the Constitution. We have repeatedly said that the Speaker ... view
  • 22 Mar 2016 in Senate: on a point of Order! view
  • 22 Mar 2016 in Senate: On a Point of Order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. First, I congratulate you on that positive line you have taken. However, in so doing, I encourage you to move from the point that, it is not the realization of any Speaker that a Bill concerns counties; it is the initial stage before tabling in any House that they must consult. Therefore, it is a consultation, but not a realization. That is a point we had not argued and it will help you. view
  • 22 Mar 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to seek your clarification. The Statement the distinguished Senator for Kitui is about to make is very important, critical and of the nature that may require you to allow us to make comments. We cannot allow this country to go back to the days where leaders were being teargassed in public. view
  • 17 Mar 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. Thank you for that Communication. However, as we look forward to the Third Devolution Conference, we must reflect on how the previous conference in Kisumu was managed. Many of us closed our offices to go to Kisumu for the Conference and we found that the Senate had absolutely no role in the Conference. As a matter of fact, the Senate looked like a nuisance hovering around the Conference. When we went there, our colleague, the host Senator was not even acknowledged at the official opening. It turned out to be an event ... view
  • 17 Mar 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. Did you hear the distinguished Senator for Elgeyo-Marakwet calling Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, in fact, a lunatic? It is only a lunatic who can enjoy a lucid moment and this is a serious improper motive. He said “Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale in his lucid moment”. Only a deranged person gets a lucid moment once in a while. Is that proper? Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale is a distinguished, respected and admired Member of this The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained ... view
