10 Jul 2014 in Senate:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also want to seek clarification regarding the matter that Sen. Wetangula has rightly emphaised on. That is the issue of when you want to complete the road such as the one Sen. Kiraitu has raised and we can see new ones being built. What is the position with regard to this? Yesterday, I read in the FinancialTimes about a road that is supposedly complete. This is the road from Murang’a, Sagana through to Marwa. The contract for this road was awarded in 2002. I drive on the road and I know for a fact that it ...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Clearly, Sen. Murkomen is still blind about these things. From the outset, I want to say that Sen. Khalwale has brought this Bill at the appropriate time. I believe that the Political Parties Act, in its totality, needs to be looked at afresh. This Act was passed just before the passing of the new Constitution. I feel very strongly that there are many aspects of that Act that need to be changed. As I support Sen. Khalwale, I want to say that I will propose very specific and profound amendments to the Bill. You ...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, indeed, I have shared this with Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale. We are not actually changing the concept that he has. If we change the figure 1 to 5, it does not really change the idea; what changes is the magnitude by which The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. There is a difference between heckling and contribution. What we have just heard is heckling. I merely said that if you walk in the streets of Nairobi and you ask the people in the streets the difference between the ideological approach to issues between the Jubilee Coalition and CORD, they will not know. I am not saying this because I am on this side or Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale is on that side. I am simply stating a fact which everybody very clearly knows The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information ...

On point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Honestly, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale has just said and everybody heard this that they have conducted a research that shows these things. Now that he has said that, would I be in order to ask the Senator to lay on the Table the report of the research that has been carried out?

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. With due respect to Sen. (Prof.) Anyang’Nyong’o, who I have got profound respect for; he has just mentioned that there was a meeting where Gen. Karangi gave directives to the media not cover the event. Under normal circumstances, when you make an allegation like that, you are supposed to fully substantiate and prove that, indeed, that was the case. Otherwise, you withdraw and apologize.
