  • 12 Jun 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is one thing that again shows the reverse thinking of the sponsor of the Bill because the national laboratories under the Constitution remain the preserve of the national Government. If there is a killer brew in Murang’a, Mai Maihiu, Nyeri, Homa Bay or wherever, we should not pass a law that allows substandard laboratories to be established in the counties to purport to test alcohol or any offending substances. If we want standardization in the country, that must be done at the centre and any alcohol that renders Kenyans blind or kills them must come to ... view
  • 12 Jun 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have told you many times before and I can tell you for free here now that I can assure that if you think yours truly had anything to do with Tokyo, I am ready to walk on my own to court to be prosecuted. I am ready to do that. Those who speak with a tongue in the cheek, chiding me on matters that were investigated by Parliament, the Controller and Auditor-General, KACA and the inter-Ministerial committees and found that I knew nothing and did nothing about that transaction---. When Sen. Murkomen with a cheeky smile ... view
  • 12 Jun 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I conclude, I invite these young Senators to go and read all the reports around the Tokyo scandal. I want to make it very clear that the distinguished Senator for Meru there was forced out of office on the alleged Anglo Leasing and we stood with him and we knew he was innocent and he was declared innocent and he is sitting here. He is a close friend of mine. 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, ... view
  • 12 Jun 2014 in Senate: On a point of information, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
  • 12 Jun 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, is the Senate Majority Leader further in order to purport that the wine of those days was not good, while even in the Old Testament, Noah and his three sons consumed wine? It was so potent that that he was found in his birthday suit. The fate that befell his sons depended on how they treated him when they saw him. Was that not potent wine? view
  • 12 Jun 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, on the same issue. view
  • 12 Jun 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, what we are doing is just academic. We have precedence where the Rules and Business Committee and even the Speaker from the Chair ruled that all matters concerning counties, once we finish debate, there is no contemporaneous vote. They are simply passed onto something else so that they are listed for voting together with others. That is what we have been doing. In fact, the Mover did not even have to say that this is a matter concerning counties and so on because we have precedence and ruling from the Chair that whenever we finish debate ... view
  • 12 Jun 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, did you see the distinguished Senator for Nandi walking from this side, standing near the mace and purporting to bow near the Chair after which he went across? He has to go right to the door and bow to the House. view
  • 12 Jun 2014 in Senate: You must show obedience. view
  • 12 Jun 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I am sorry to interrupt mwalimu . However, is he in order to distort facts of history? Ludwig Krapf, a German man, who came to the coast of East Africa in the 16th Century, was a missionary. He was not a historian. He was a missionary and he doubled very modestly as an explorer. He was not a historian and it is good for us to have our historical facts right. view
