• 25 Sep 2018 in Senate: Otherwise, chuma chao kimotoni. Asante. view
• 20 Sep 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, give us about five minutes to verify. We have 24 Senators in the House, but we just want to be sure. view
• 20 Sep 2018 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. What is happening in this Chamber today is not very good. We are the “upper” House. What the Committee is treating us to is also a comedy of things we should not allow them to do. More importantly, this Order appeared because we, as a Committee, agreed that this Motion should be moved. As Senators and colleagues, we have agreed to a code that we cannot accuse our colleagues unless there is evidence which has been tabled and produced. We cannot rely on information that is out there in the public ... view
• 20 Sep 2018 in Senate: anything, including that you are taller than you should be or you should have been born shorter. If the Committee that is in charge of Powers and Privileges has not brought a report to stop the debate on this Report or to adjudge to have misconducted themselves, what we are doing now is washing dirty linen in public. Tunajianika in public. The Majority Leader is here. He is a seasoned lawyer and teacher. Unless those allegations have been brought and proved, we cannot rely on newspaper cuttings. We amended the Standing Orders to that effect. The Members who have been ... view
• 18 Sep 2018 in Senate: .: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Of course, all of us watched this distressing impromptu visit by the Governor for Nairobi City County yesterday. However, it paints a very bad picture of the status of maternal health care. At what point did it become business as usual to put dead bodies in cartons, polythene bags and store them so that they could be collected, say, Monday, Wednesday and Friday yet Pumwani Maternity Hospital is possibly seven or eight kilometres away from the City Mortuary? My eldest sister was born in Pumwani Maternity Hospital in 1974. We used to be proud ... view
• 18 Sep 2018 in Senate: .: Okay, Mr. Speaker, Sir, they said an hour ago. However, it does not change the fact that I would have expected the Committee on Health to be at Pumwani Maternity Hospital. That is the way that we are supposed to deal with things just like the Governor. We take pride that this is a devolved function. The First Lady went out of her way to buy 47 mobile clinics in the Beyond Zero Campaign. This is a tragedy beyond tragedy. The fact that there is an accusation that generators were switched off and these babies were unable to survive ... view
• 18 Sep 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Motion for the approval of the report on the County Governments and Cash 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
• 13 Sep 2018 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I rise to second the Motion that Sen. Outa, who represents, Kisumu County to serve in the Committee on Health. I must disclose that he had declared the intention to serve in the Committee. At the time our colleague, the late Ben Oluoch, passed on, I had attempted to negotiate for him to swap with Sen. Outa because of his experience in the Health Committee of the National Assembly. So, he comes with a lot of experience. I am glad that this Motion is on the Floor and I can see the Senate Majority Leader is on ... view
• 11 Sep 2018 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I was not aware that John Mukai had a petition here. John Mukai is a student I taught in Moi University. He is an environmentalist from Thange in Makueni. This matter was resolved by the Senate Committee on Energy but the issues that are in Thange are the same issues that were in Solai and any other place where the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) is involved. The Polluter Pays Principle means that once the KPC is required to do an audit, the NEMA is supposed to go and access whether the audit has been done properly. ... view
• 11 Sep 2018 in Senate: As Sen. Murkomen has pointed out some of the issues concerning the environment and issues brought to us by way of petitions are serious but sometimes we do not take them seriously. The oil spillage in Thange was over 500,000 litres. Even today, that pipeline passes under the river. So, there are serious environmental issues. They have done a new oil pipeline passing under the same river. view
