  • 2 Apr 2015 in Senate: Since you did not allow me to pursue the misinterpretation of the Constitution by Sen. Kiraitu, I will seek a clarification. 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
  • 2 Apr 2015 in Senate: Yes, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Would you allow me to deal with the Kiraitu issue? view
  • 2 Apr 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, is the Chairman in order to tell this House that he will bring a Statement from the Attorney- General when, in fact, he is part of this problem? It is in his office that the commissioners were called, shown guns and asked to resign. How can he possibly be the one to send us a Statement? Can you invite monkeys to adjudicate on the forest with the terms of reference being to abolish the forest? view
  • 2 Apr 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I also welcome Alliance High School, a school that two of my sons have gone through very successfully. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for allowing us this opportunity. When I came to your office this afternoon, you readily agreed that the happening in Garissa was worth our attention and debate. It is regrettable that the cruel hand of terrorism has now found its way to our teaching institutions. This is a mutation of the terrorist group of Al Shabaab that is steadily moving towards the Boko Haram philosophy of attacking institutions of learning ... view
  • 1 Apr 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I thought that we normally determine if there is quorum before we start any business. view
  • 1 Apr 2015 in Senate: Okay. I am sorry about that. view
  • 31 Mar 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I enjoin the distinguished Senator for Siaya, Sen. Orengo, and urge you to see that a provision of the Constitution is not meant to add colour and numbers. It has effect. Article 132 opens with the statement; 132(c) “The President shall- (i) report, in an address to the nation, on all the measures taken and progress achieved in the realisation of the national values, referred to in Article 10; (ii) publish in the Gazette the details of the measures and progress under sub- paragraph (i); and (iii) submit a report for ... view
  • 31 Mar 2015 in Senate: Perfectly all right, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
  • 31 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, more importantly, the distinguished Senate Majority Leader himself has conceded that publication is mandatory. He is trying to play about with the timing; that it is not a condition precedent and so on. Once publication is required, it must be done and it takes an hour to publish this in the Gazette as a special gazette notice and we fulfill all the requirements. view
  • 31 Mar 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I do not intend to challenge your ruling but the Chair has made a statement that last year we proceeded without gazettement. Where is the evidence that there was no gazettement? Just because we did not raise the matter does not mean there was no gazettement. We must be factual. The record must be kept straight for the future. In future, your children will sit in this Chamber. I am very relaxed. I am waiting to analyze that Speech. Do not worry about that. view
