• 16 Feb 2017 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I appreciate the initial intervention by Sen. Sang but to baptize it in a different way is, in my view, to what we call in law to approbate and reprobate. In simple terms, it means to blow hot and cold. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we were here over Christmas holiday on a Bill generated from the National Assembly, accepted by the Majority Leader here, we voted here, and then, for some strange reason, we are giving an excuse. The fact is; the leadership of this House has failed. You cannot baptize ... view

• 15 Feb 2017 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this issue came before the Committee of Finance, Commerce and Budget sometime back. I am surprised that it has not been resolved because the amounts that we are talking about are in excess of Kshs10 billion. I agree with Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale that the matter of unbanked money does not only affect Nairobi City County. It is everywhere. It is in fact one of the issues that was before us in the Gov. Gachagua Petition. Counties have incurred pending bills amounting to Kshs37 billion. It is no wonder that governors are attacking the Bill by Sen. ... view
• 14 Feb 2017 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wish to present my condolences and that of my family to the family of the late Boy Juma Boy. As the Vice Chairperson of the Committee on Information and Communication, I had the priviledge of spending time with Boy Juma Boy during our last trip to Tokyo, Japan, together with Sen. Kagwe and Sen. Cheruiyot. I managed to send pictures of those lovely moments we shared with him. Sen. Boy Juma Boy, in his wisdom and humility, did not show any of us, who came long after he was elected, that he was senior. As ... view
• 5 Jan 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in the last sitting, I requested for your direction on Standing Order No.29(5) and your direction was that you called us because this matter is urgent and exceptional. That is why you recalled us from our holiday. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to report that the Committee has not had even a week because we have been working overnight. Maybe because Sen. Sang wants to go and sleep, we should not limit debate to five minutes on such grave matters. Even before I mentioned amendment to Section 44(a), I had used two minutes. In this particular circumstance, ... view
• 5 Jan 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in Article 260, the Constitution says that we must read it in a way that breathes life into it. It must make sense. Allow me to educate Sen. Murkomen a bit. There is a special reason why this Bill--- view
• 5 Jan 2017 in Senate: Why not wait, Sen. Murkomen? I want to educate you. view
• 5 Jan 2017 in Senate: You have been educated enough. view
• 5 Jan 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the reason this Bill is here is pursuant to Article 110(2) which makes this a Special Bill because it relates to election of Members of County Assemblies (MCAs) or the county executive. Sen. Murkomen, those Wards that are stated in Clause 32 are those of elected members and that is our jurisdiction.

• 5 Jan 2017 in Senate: Governor John Mruttu mentioned something that is very important. He said that there are wards that border counties. Therefore, it is possible that in the delimitation of a ward, you will affect the boundary of a county. This gentleman and good Senator from Elgeyo Marakwet County should read this backwards, forwards and conjunctively. He should not read it selectively. That is the end of my education to Sen. Murkomen. view
