  • 26 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, when this matter came up, I tried to raise an issue and the distinguished Senator for Meru thought I was overloading his question. I still want to follow it up. The sequence of registration is; birth certificate, identity cards and eventually all the important documents like voters registration. The new Constitution has given the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) a responsibility to carry out continuous registration of voters. We are now into the second year since the last elections. Could the Vice Chair of the Committee tell us when the Government will decentralize registration of births ... view
  • 26 Mar 2014 in Senate: Has the Vice Chairperson of the Committee expressed any inability or disability to answer the questions? It is preposterous for the Majority Whip to stand up even before the Chairperson of the Committee utters a word, to presume that she cannot answer the questions we have raised. view
  • 25 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you for allowing me to seek a statement from the Chairperson of the Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations. On Sunday, 23rd March, 2014, at Kamukuywa Market in Kimilili Constituency, Bungoma County, a young man was walking home in the evening. He was accosted and arrested by administration police officers (APs) who are in a camp at Kamukuywa Market. They took him to the camp and thoroughly and brutally assaulted him. At about midnight, they released him and escorted him home. By the morning, the young man had lost his life. The electronic version of ... view
  • 25 Mar 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. There is a lot of tension in the area and we need quick action from the Government. We cannot wait for two weeks on a matter as grievous as this. We are ready to receive the statement by Tuesday, next week. view
  • 25 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I take cognizance of what you have said, but the distinguished Senator for Kisumu requested for a Statement from the Senate Majority Leader. One would expect that whoever purported to speak for him was only open and limited to telling the House when the statement can be forthcoming; not to stand up and purport to justify what was said, on the basis that it was a personal opinion. Everybody has an opinion, but you cannot take your opinion and cover it with the colour of the Senate and go out there and pretend that you are speaking ... view

  • 25 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was on the Floor at the rise of the House, may I know how much of my time is left? view
  • 25 Mar 2014 in Senate: Ten minutes. Do you feel that cracking sound coming from the Chamber? view
  • 25 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, at the rise of the House on Thursday, I had just concluded praising Sen. Karaba for bringing this Motion and pointed out that in the successive regimes in this country, adult education was always relegated. It was bundled with culture, children and women issues. It was never taken as a serious matter that has to spring Kenyans out of illiteracy to avail them functional literacy to the extent that even a mama in the village taking a child to hospital can come back home, read the prescription and administer the medicine properly; functional literacy to the extent ... view
  • 25 Mar 2014 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I will try to condense the little that I can say about this Motion. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I feel the pain and frustration of the distinguished Senator for Mombasa. We know that Mombasa used to be called mji wa raha; kuingia ni The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.
