  • 28 Oct 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this Bill has been developed and we must salute the research arm of your office and the Senate, which evolved the idea and brought it to our Committee that is chaired by the distinguished Senator for Garissa. We have gone through this Bill many times. It makes provision to devolve disaster management. In the history of the country, we have had one disaster upon another. Whenever this happens, the whole country is at a loss as to where emergency responses should come from. For example, during the Westgate terror attack, we saw competition between the County Government ... view
  • 27 Oct 2015 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I start by congratulating the distinguished Senator for Kitui because he has been very painstaking on this matter. I remember him bringing a Motion in the last Parliament where he wanted to obligate head teachers to release certificates to students after sitting examinations without any delay or conditions. As we know, Motions are not as enforceable as an Act of Parliament. I am happy that he did not lose directional hope on the matter. He has brought this amendment to the Kenya National Examination Council Act so that we can embolden into the law that we need ... view
  • 27 Oct 2015 in Senate: Pardon me, Madam Temporary Speaker. Education is meaningless if a child in El Moro can get his or her certificate, that Sen. Musila is fighting for, and cannot get a job because, people from the mountains have taken the jobs. Education is meaningless if after you get the certificate Sen. Musila is fighting for, you cannot even enter a queue for a job. I beg to support. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

  • 15 Oct 2015 in Senate: You are answering the wrong Statement. It should be 2(a) view
  • 15 Oct 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Chairperson of my committee, who is my great friend and a man of great respect does not seem to live in this country. On 29th September, 2015, a group of persons from the CORD Coalition sought to demonstrate and come and hand a petition to Parliament in relation to the tormenting and harassment ad infinitum of Sen. Johnstone Muthama. The group was repulsed with excessive force and could not be allowed to come to Parliament or beyond Electricity House around Bima House. On the same afternoon, and you could even take judicial notice of this, there ... view
  • 15 Oct 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, before I pursue my point of order, could you restrain the distinguished Senator for Kericho from heckling? view
  • 15 Oct 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, did you hear the distinguished Chairman, Senator for Garissa saying that the CS is not aware of any application to demonstrate? Under what law does anybody apply for a license to demonstrate, unless the Chairman is operating under the old school and old Constitution?

  • 15 Oct 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Chairperson of the Committee has repeatedly operated under the smoke screen of not being aware. Now that we have made you aware as the Chairperson, could you assure this House that the events of 29th September, 2015,which is a scar and a blot to the image of Government, where you can block and chase away one group of demonstrators and literally ensconce another group at the gates of Parliament because they are shouting obscenities against a Member of the Senate that you do not like, and Kenyans, that the Government you represent here will not apply ... view
  • 15 Oct 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I join the distinguished Senators for Mandera and Kakamega in seeking your direction under Standing Order No. 90. My reading of the Standing Orders is that we are stopped by this Standing Order The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
  • 15 Oct 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I will be very brief. This is a report from the Committee that we went through in a retreat and every Senator who attended supported that it is necessary to pass the report, approve it and move on to look at the Bill. The Constitution of Kenya 2010, created a new structure of governance, legislation, judiciary and devolution in this country. There is no doubt that over 70 per cent of Kenyans overwhelmingly approved the Constitution in the referendum. They were driven by the attraction of devolution. Devolution came as matter of necessity with ... view
