• 1 Apr 2015 in Senate: Yes, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to contribute to the Petition. view
• 1 Apr 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to congratulate Sen. Mbura for bringing the Petition to this House. I just want to point out that what is happening in Saudi Arabia is inhuman. We have had a couple of people even from my own county who have asked us to intervene through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Trade to have them brought home because of the brutality that they are experiencing in Saudi Arabia. What they tell us about what goes on in Saudi Arabia is appalling. This includes mental anguish and mental abuse; where you are told that ... view
• 1 Apr 2015 in Senate: Thank you very much, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Our links with the Middle East are both religious and cultural. However, all that has been abused in the face of a blatant racism that occurs, particularly in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. It is time the Government created the Ministry of Diaspora. The Philippines have a ministry that deals with the diaspora and caters for them. Ours is only a small department in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Trade. It is sad that millions of our people are suffering and being mistreated out there, but we do not have ... view
• 31 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me this opportunity to support this Motion. I want to take off from where the last speaker, Sen. Muthama, left in regard to matters of corruption raised in this Report. It is very clear there are short- comings as far as this Report is concerned. If you look at Item No.73, on page 34, the accused individuals in the case of Wajir, are Abdulahi Sheikh and Mohamed Nofarah. It is alleged that the governor awarded tenders to several companies and so on. The person The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report ... view
• 31 Mar 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I sympathize and indeed I acknowledge that the honourable Senator’s time should be held but I rise on a point of order. The Senator, whose contribution so far is excellent has said that governors are thieves. I think it is important for us to clarify that not all governors are thieves but there are some governors who might be thieves. view
• 31 Mar 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. With all due respect to my friend, surely, that is completely imputing improper motives to somebody who is not in this House to defend himself and you cannot just talk about somebody’s assets and ask them where they came from when you do not know the source. It is wrong to say so and absolutely out of order. Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale should simply apologize for making such a statement. view
• 31 Mar 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. At the point where I rose on a point of order, the time that you had given Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale had not expired and he was still on the Floor, contributing. I am quite aware of that Standing Order. I find it very unfair for an hon. Senator to accuse not only the CS Eng. Kamau, but even to bring issues about his wife on the Floor of this House without any documentation or anything to lay on the Table and arbitrarily make statements out of the blues. I think it ... view
• 25 Mar 2015 in Senate: Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I also join you in congratulating the First Lady, Mrs. Margaret Kenyatta, for her Beyond Zero Campaign and her continued effort towards assisting the less able, women and children around our country. She has succeeded in her campaign because of the support she gets from her husband, His Excellency President Uhuru Kenyatta. view
• 25 Mar 2015 in Senate: 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, Senate. view
• 25 Mar 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am a Member of that Committee. Would I be in order to request Sen. Ntutu that even as we struggle to get that documents, he struggles very hard to ensure that Narok does not burn? Would I be in order to request my colleague to do whatever he can to ensure that the place remains calm? view
