• 17 Oct 2018 in Senate: I would like the Majority Leader to lend me his ear. This morning, I was just following up on the National Flag, Emblems and Names Act, where I proposed to remove the caveat that was brought in by hon. Mbiyu Koinange and hon. Tom Mboya on 26th November, 1963, to prohibit Kenyans from flying flags. I saw Sen. Murkomen, Hon. Kalonzo Musyoka and the Deputy President at the Kasarani National Stadium the other day. How nice would it have been to have flags flying everywhere after sending the antelopes to go where they belong? view
• 17 Oct 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I followed up the communication from your office which says that, that Bill was forwarded to the National Assembly in March. It is now October and nothing has ever happened. This is a tragedy! Part of the reason why colleagues here are having problems is because after drafting a Bill, putting in so much work, and haggling with the Legal Department of the Senate and the good lawyers we have here, that Bill ends up on the shelves of the National Assembly. A good example is the Bill by Sen. (Dr.) Zani and the one Sen ... view
• 17 Oct 2018 in Senate: now, Nyandarua County Assembly is closed because they want to impeach the Speaker, and there is no press. The same is true for Kisumu, Nairobi and Kakamega. In fact, now, we have new methods of impeachment. They are impeaching speakers and nailing the door shut. Yesterday, I saw the Serjeant-at-Arms of that Assembly being escorted, in a violent manner, to put the mace in the Assembly so that they could impeach the Speaker. view

• 17 Oct 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. For some strange reason, I suspect that we have a problem in all our assemblies. I have just met the Chief Executive officer (CEO) of the County Assemblies Forum, and Sen. Cherargei has agreed, as the Chairperson of the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights, to meet County Assemblies Forum. It appears that all the speakers in this country are on the verge of being dislodged by their Members. The tragedy is that Sen. Murkomen proposed a Bill to have deputy speakers anchored in law and the court has said that there is ... view
• 17 Oct 2018 in Senate: To conclude on this Petition to County Assemblies Procedure Bill, as you said, for a long time, we have been looking at methods of improving county assemblies. I have said this about the Devolution Support Programme (DSP). I am not sure up to what extent the Council of Governors (CoG) negotiated with the Intergovernmental Budget and Economic Council (IBEC) and the national Treasury to capacitate county executives on financial reporting, but left out our Members of County Assemblies (MCAs). We must continue to say that the future of devolution lies in our county assemblies. We must build the capacity of ... view
