  • 10 Feb 2021 in Senate: He once walked to Parliament, attended a sitting and the next day, he was not a Member of Parliament out of a Parliamentary Group (PG) meeting. He and my great late friend, Francis Loile Polisi Lotodo, were just labelled as carrying out war-like activities without evidence and were dismissed from Parliament. view
  • 10 Feb 2021 in Senate: We have come a long way. Today, the political landscape of Kenya is helter- skelter. It is like the Tower of Babel in the Bible. Nobody hands over what they have been asked to hand over. You are asked for a spade and you give a brick. You are asked for sand and you give cement. That is going on and on. view
  • 10 Feb 2021 in Senate: It is only in Kenya where people are elected on a party, take a totally different trajectory and enjoy the perks of that party and nothing happens. If we do not have party discipline in this country, we can as well say bye to democracy. Love him or hate him. When Raila Odinga disagreed with Michael Wamalwa Kijana in the party that I lead, which is FORD- Kenya, he reconsidered his position, resigned and went back to Kibera, then called Langata, and sought a new mandate on the National Development Party (NDP). Today, we do not have any single politician ... view
  • 10 Feb 2021 in Senate: Now he has taken a position of responsibility. I have no doubt that he is a well- schooled man and will adjust to the circumstances. view
  • 10 Feb 2021 in Senate: To my friend, Sen. (Dr.) Kang’ata, now you have time to laugh in the corridors as loudly as you can, without carrying anybody’s responsibility on the Floor of this House. view
  • 10 Feb 2021 in Senate: The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
  • 10 Feb 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I finish, on a serious note, if we do not instill discipline and decorum in our parties, we can as well say bye bye to multiparty democracy. If you do not, the pretense that because you belong to a different party and therefore there is democracy is fallacious. Let us have discipline. Let us have candor and commitment. Let us have self- respect and respect for the public and institutions. Above all, let the leaderships of parties also respect and uphold freedom of expression as enshrined in the Constitution. I thank you. view
  • 9 Feb 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I join you in welcoming distinguished Senators back to the House after the long recess through the holidays of end and beginning of the year with the challenges of Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and the emerging tensions caused by political activities in the country. Now that we are back, I just want to say one or two things. First, the composition of the SBC is not an issue because what they will do is what matters. I believe that under your able leadership, the Committee will be able to navigate and drive the business of the ... view
  • 9 Feb 2021 in Senate: have in departing from the formula that we passed in this House, so that counties can receive their just expectations in terms of allocations in County Allocation of Revenue Act (CARA). Lastly, I saw in the media that all the Bills that were invalidated by the High Court and rightly so, are going to be republished. I want to urge the SBC to ensure that these Bills once they come for First Reading if they originate from here, or from the “lower” House, to be committed to the Committees. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Committees should do a thorough scrutiny of ... view
  • 29 Dec 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you. This very important Bill sets out to harmonize the anti-doping legislation of 2016 with the current developments in the world of sports. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the WADA has been struggling the world over in trying to bring sanity and discipline in the sporting activities of the world. Many times, athletes have fallen victim to situations beyond their control. With the changing times and improving technologies, we have had situations of rogue countries that have had official national sanctioned activities of doping their sports men and women to get fraudulent and fake superiority and supremacy in ... view
