  • 24 Feb 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the distinguished Senator for Meru, who doubles as a King and has had a distinguished career as a person who speaks the truth, to stand on this Floor and mislead the House and country that security has improved in the country upon the appointment of Maj-Gen. Nkaisserry as Cabinet Secretary for the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government, when immediately after his appointment even one of us was gunned down in cold blood with his security men and driver? It is within that same ... view
  • 24 Feb 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we are not passing judgement on Maj-Gen. Nkaisserry, but he is in order to mislead the House and country? view
  • 24 Feb 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I am not challenging the provisions of Standing Order No.77(5), but we also know that when we vote on matters affecting counties, we vote as delegations and not as individuals. That is why when the name of Sen. Mike Sonko is called, it is Beth Mugo who stands up to vote because she has a proxy to vote. When Kisii is called, it is Sen. Obure, but Sen. Ong’era stands up to vote on behalf of the delegation. So, we must not isolate Standing Orders and read them away from the ... view

  • 19 Feb 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I neither stand to challenge your ruling, which I did not hear in full, nor to support it. But I want to point out, first by joining my distinguished kid brother, Sen. Khaniri, in what he has said. Under our Standing Orders there are only two Joint Committees. Any other Joint Committees can only be established by a resolution of the House. view

  • 19 Feb 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, first of all, you are not functus officio on this matter. You never at any one time said that you were making a ruling with finality. We know you as a Speaker with a clear but flexible mind. You are capable of giving way to new issues as they arise. Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is steps and processes like this that killed the first Senate in this country; by slowly but surely making it look like a second Chamber. It became irrelevant until it was done away with. It is the small bits and pieces that nibble ... view
  • 19 Feb 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Allow me to ride on that important request for a Statement by the distinguished Senator for Trans Nzoia. In addition to the information sought, I want the Committee Chairperson to tell the House why the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries always waits until the planting season is over before they avail the fertilizer to the farmers. Secondly, why does the same Ministry take that fertilizer to the NCPB and allow unscrupulous middlemen to go and buy the same fertilizer as if they are farmers, stock it and sell it to farmers at a price ... view
  • 17 Feb 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Chairperson, Sir. As a matter of etiquette in the Chamber, did you notice that as you were taking your position to bow to the House, for us to sit to transact business, Sen. Sang, Sen. Ochwang’i, Sen. Karue, Sen. Chiaba and Sen. Kuti were firmly ensconced in their seats, which is not in keeping with our Standing Orders? When the Chair of Committee is taking his position, all Members are supposed to be upstanding until you bow in respect to either side before we take our seats. view
  • 17 Feb 2015 in Senate: But Mr. TemporarySpeaker, Sir, you have already given me the opportunity. view
