  • 16 Dec 2020 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker Sir. I would like to give unsolicited advice to the learned gentleman. He is not on trial here. Not everybody mentioned will run here with documents. You will lose sight of your client’s case. You are not here to defend yourself. You have been mentioned and many others will be mentioned. Not everybody mentioned will run from Koinange Street to bring documents here. view
  • 16 Dec 2020 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, I do not know why some of our colleagues are becoming hyper. This witness has a statement. If you have read her statement, what she has been saying is actually in her statement. Why do you not leave the lawyers to do their work? I want to encourage my learned colleagues that they will do so well in cross- examination rather than shooting up to interrupt a witness. This is because sometimes it also creates prejudice against you, if we are among the jurors. Just listen to the witness. I have read that statement over and over. ... view
  • 9 Dec 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you for your Communication that has elicited these points of order. Standing Order No. 251F(3) --- view
  • 9 Dec 2020 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
  • 9 Dec 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Standing Order No. 251F(3) reads as follows- “Where technology is used to make a decision, measures shall be put in place to ensure that – (a) the system is capable of verifying the votes cast either electronically or manually; (b) the integrity and confidentiality of the vote is maintained; and (c) the technology is simple, accurate, verifiable, secure and transparent.” Part (c) is what the distinguished Senator for Narok County has read. We would be interested as a House to know what measures have been put in place to ensure that the system is capable of verifying ... view
  • 1 Dec 2020 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker Sir. view
  • 1 Dec 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The issue raised by the Senator of Nairobi City County is so important. I am a constant victim of what Sen. Sakaja is raising. Could you direct our Clerk that he writes to all Committee clerks and instructs them that whenever a matter comes to a Committee and touches on a certain geographical area which a Senator represents in this House; that Senator as a matter of procedure is invited to that meeting so that it becomes a matter of common practice and procedure. view
  • 1 Dec 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Rev. Muganda in petitioning to this House about the integrated IDPs, was not only speaking for those in Kibera, but millions of Kenyans. It is bad enough to have IDPs in our country, but it worse to know that the treatment by the State of IDPs is grossly discriminatory. view
  • 1 Dec 2020 in Senate: In the last Parliament, and those who were here like the distinguished Senator for Isiolo, can remember we were told of two very sad stories. Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. and Sen. Khaniri may also remember. Out of Kshs24 billion that was set aside for settling IDPs, only about Kshs9 billion reached IDPs. The rest was described as administration costs. view
  • 1 Dec 2020 in Senate: Secondly, the IDPs across the country were pigeonholed, so to speak, depending on where they came from. Certain areas’ IDPs were paid Kshs400,000 per family and in other areas, for example, Bungoma where you and I come from, were paid Kshs10,000. These are all IDPs, born out of a same unfortunate situation through reckless behaviour by politicians and mishandling of the reckless situation by the State. view
