• 30 Dec 2014 in Senate: The distinguished Senator for Elgeyo-Marakwet is a lawyer. I think he has to have some fidelity to factored law. We quoted two rulings from Speaker Marende. The one he is purporting to distinguish and said we were reading selectively is a ruling none of us has made reference to. The rulings that we made reference to are the ones of 10th September, 2011 and 10th September, 2009. They were delivered on the same day but different years. These are the rulings that we read to you. view
• 30 Dec 2014 in Senate: On a point of order Mr. Speaker, Sir. We have not gone to the Motion yet and the issue we are discussing is whether we are going to the Motion or not. The distinguished young Senator is engaged in a misadventure that is leading him nowhere because there is nothing that the Motion is seeking a declaration on. The Motion is seeking a resolution and not a declaration and the two are not the same. view

• 30 Dec 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I do not understand the excitement and Sen. Murkomen pretending to be the Speaker. We do not intend to challenge your ruling, but where it is factually incorrect, we have a duty to put the record straight. None of these Members is a litigant in any court and it has to be made very clear that CORD is a coalition of parties and not Senators. view
• 30 Dec 2014 in Senate: It helps a great deal for distinguished Senators to get excited but this is not a matter about excitement; this is a matter of this country. This is a matter of the people of Kenya and so you can be as excited as children who are touching toys for the first time but let us get to the facts. 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
• 30 Dec 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have done so well so far, it gives no license to Sen. Murkomen to become a heckler. We can also heckle if we wish. Let us exercise some decorum. I have been sitting here for the last three hours and I have not heckled anybody. So you do not have to heckle at me. You may be playing to some gallery somewhere, but I am not. I am addressing the Speaker. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to make the record clear that none of the Senators seating on your left hand side is a litigant in ... view
• 30 Dec 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to make the record clear that none of the Senators seating on the left hand side of your seat is a litigant in any matter. You have predicated your ruling on the fact that some of these Senators are litigants. I want that record to be made clear that none of them is a litigant. Sen. Orengo is a distinguished lawyer in this country and he has the right to appear for anybody and everybody including Senators across the Floor. I would similarly appear for any Member who wishes to be acted for by me ... view
• 3 Dec 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, further to what the distinguished Senator for Kitui has sought, I want the Chairman of the Committee to explain to the House why the observations are at total variance with their recommendations. You cannot find that the allocation was irregular and then simply recommend that no further transaction should take place. If the allocation was irregular, then the entire transaction is void ab initio . Therefore, there should be no transactions whatsoever on this land. More importantly, this land was trust land which was vested in the county council to hold in the interest of the people ... view

• 3 Dec 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. In trying to fortify what Sen. Musila is saying, did you notice – if you have this Report – that what the Chairperson says and his conclusions are totally unrelated? He says in his observations that the allocation of the land by the county council did not comply with procedure. Then, he goes to say that the county council did not comply with procedure and the allocation was unprocedural. Then, he stands up and says that the complication came because the NLC issued a letter of allotment; totally contradictory. If he does ... view
