• 4 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you know that is the problem when one is overawed by arrogance and then you fail to listen to others. I just read Article 246(3) (a) of the Constitution, he was not listening and I had him saying “what, what”. We are not going to debate that way. When the distinguished Senator spoke, I listened quietly and I encourage him to do so to others because what you give is what you get. view

• 4 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, can you restrain this young Senator? view
• 4 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Article 245 must be read together with 246, in the process of appointing the Inspector-General of Police-- view
• 4 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in appointing the Inspector-General of Police, Article 245 must be read together with Article 246. Those who have the Constitution can read it because I have constraint of time, let me carry on.

• 4 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I can be quite nasty if I want to be but I do not want to be today because this is very important. We are talking about the person who is going to take care of the security and the lives of 40 million Kenyans. In doing this, we must avoid wearing blinkers of ethnicity, narrow minded regionalism and all manner of things.

• 4 Mar 2015 in Senate: This chorus will not turn into votes; there are also votes on this side. So, if you want to pursue an agenda, convince us to vote for this gentleman instead of engaging in unhelpful chorus that does not take us anywhere. You can be excited as much as you can. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I heard Sen. Murkomen sitting here and saying “this is my appointee; he has to go through;” I thought this was an appointee of the President of the Republic of Kenya. We want to move away from this kind of talk; you should persuade us to vote ... view
• 4 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am never frivolous. The Senator told the distinguished Senator for Makueni, sitting here – and he can testify because I was seating here – that “this is my appointee.” But that is neither here nor there. Let us move on to--- view
