• 10 Jul 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is a matter of public notoriety as we say it in law that the distinguished Senator for Kakamega, in his popular pass time, engages in bull fighting. One time, I asked Dr. Mukhisa Kituyi; what would Dr. Bonny Khalwale be if he did not go to school? Dr. Kituyi said; he would have died in a bull fight a long time ago. view
• 10 Jul 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is with a light touch. I have seen hon. Dr. Khalwale half dressed chasing bulls in around in Kakamega. view
• 10 Jul 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I was going to sit down, the distinguished Senator, Sen. Kanainza Nyongesa, said she has seen him in the same fashion. It is time we reined in and sanitized harambees. They have been adulterated and a law to regulate them is desirable, without depriving the very needy who benefit from harambees. With those many remarks, I beg to second. view
• 10 Jul 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also congratulate Sen. Lonyangapuo for bringing this important Motion which, ideally, should be expanded to cover all arid and semi-arid areas of this country. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the problem that we have is not lack of policy. The policy is actually there. If you may recall, before Independence, this country was a major producer and exporter of beef and other animal products. In fact, immediately after Independence, the Government of Botswana borrowed from Kenya the establishment of a meat commission from the KMC. Botswana is now the number one exporter of beef and The ... view
• 10 Jul 2013 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Although I do not speak for Prof. Anyang’-Nyong’o, I thought that the general practice is that the Member who brings a Motion and seeks to set up a Committee such as this, as a matter of courtesy, of course, would talk to Members who are in the Committee. But, normally, one would put together a team that he is able to work with, because when we pass a Motion such as this, its sponsor is invariably the Chair of such a Committee. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Koigi Committee in the Ninth Parliament ... view
• 10 Jul 2013 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale in order to advocate for a violation of the Constitution when it guarantees that Kenyan citizens must be protected and, in any case, where would we deport Kenyans to? We should send them to jail. view
• 10 Jul 2013 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale to mislead the House when everybody knows that the former President of Panama was actually abducted from his country by USA? There was a raid and he was abducted. There was no surrender by his citizens to USA. view
• 10 Jul 2013 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I beg to support the amendment. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, given the earlier sentiments expressed by the distinguished Senator for Laikipia, it is only fair that we exclude him from the Committee, although the reasons that he gave for not wanting to serve were far from convincing. But we must respect his views, so that we can move forward. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the additional names are also born out of consultations, to see that we have a balance from both sides of the House, which I think we do achieve by the inclusion of the ... view
• 26 Jun 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this very important Motion. I intended to propose an amendment to this Motion, but seeing the delegation numbers in the House, I would encourage that those who will speak after me can still bring the amendment so that this Motion covers the whole country. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Section 22 of Schedule 4 of the Constitution assigns environment to the national Government which includes water protection, securing sufficient residual water, hydraulic engineering, safety of dams, energy, fishing, hunting, gathering, protection of animals and wildlife and so ... view
• 26 Jun 2013 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. May I raise a procedural matter under Standing Order No.68 (2) which you have repeatedly read to us? It designates the voting authority to the Head of Delegation and in his or her absence, a designated Member of the delegation. This means that when the Clerk is calling out the Roll Call for voting, constantly he must call the Head of Delegation then the designated Member of that delegation, if there is a situation like that, he or she may stand up and inform the House that he or she is voting ... view
