• 4 Mar 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is the honourable distinguished Senator in order to insinuate that Sen. Daisy, I assume by age, does not know some of our leaders? We have gone to school and done history. view
• 4 Mar 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it is unfortunate that I am catching the Speaker’s eye now. What we heard earlier is nothing close to what we are hearing now. I know that what we are hearing now is what many had in their minds only that they did not know how to bring it up. That is why I rose on a point of order to interrupt Sen. Khalwale, when he was moving the Motion. The fact that we are young does not mean that we have not followed the history of this country and that we have not been interested ... view
• 4 Dec 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity. I will also become a lady of few words. We have been discussing the issue of insecurity for a long time. We have discussed it here and even in Kamukunji. Today, we are yet again on it. We have now adjourned other business of the House to discuss this very important issue. Just like my 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
• 27 Nov 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I rise to second this amendment. First, let me thank and congratulate my fellow colleague, Sen. Mositet, for coming up with this very important Motion. I would also like to thank my colleagues who have spoken before me and supported it. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I think that it is important for us to include the county governments as we have said, because I know that various counties have a Ministry of Environment. This, definitely, shows that even at the county level, the Governors and the executive committee members really realize that importance of ... view
• 5 Nov 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I want to thank the Chairperson for giving us this Statement which we have waited for, for a very long time. I also want to thank him for letting me go through the Statement before he read it although I thought I would, probably, get a copy of it from the Clerk. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, having said that, this is an issue which has been raised here; sometimes, just as other Senators mentioned, asking supplementary questions when you did not get the right answer in the first place can be difficult. You really ... view
• 5 Nov 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is the clarification I am seeking. Where are these peace meetings taking place? Who is talking to the other? Is the Cabinet Secretary aware that there is no operation that is going on as alleged in this Statement by the Chairperson? To the contrary, incidents of insecurity have increased in Maralal. Could it be a deliberate move to start operations to deal with insecurity incidents so that we forget what happened in Baragoi? view
• 5 Nov 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I also want to concur with what you have said because this is an issue that affects all counties. If we are not careful, insecurity will bring down our counties and we are supposed to protect them. I want to acknowledge the answer that has been given; that we should be patient. However, it is sad that as we continue to be patient, lives continue to be lost. So, let us have less talk, but more action so as to secure the lives of Kenyans. view
• 23 Oct 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Apart from the peace committees and the continous efforts that the Government has used in the past, are there any new ways that the Cabinet Secretary and his team are looking into to see to it that cattle raids can be curbed? Secondly, on the issue of compensation, it is important to note that those cows that are stolen among the pastoralists are the only source of livelihood or mainstay of those people. So, it is not right to tell us that there is no mechanism for compensation, yet we know that it is the ... view
• 23 Oct 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I just wanted to point out that I think, as Committees, it is important that we interrogate the answers that we are given even at the Committee stage, because you get the answers from the Cabinet Secretaries. If you feel the answers are not comprehensive enough or they do not meet the standard or the esteem of the Senators in this House, you return them back until we get comprehensive and serious answers, especially when we are talking about lives of people being killed. view
• 23 Oct 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this very important Motion and also to congratulate the Committee on Education, Information and Technology on their field visits to Kirinyaga, Nyeri and Laikipia counties. I would just like to pick up from where Sen. Ongoro left. Her contribution has been very insightful and also on the part of where she says that it would be important that we get a report on more than ten counties. I also note that this is phase two report meaning that they had tabled another report. I gather from ... view
