22 May 2020 in Senate:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, we are all being listened to and you have heard Sen. Cherargei say that we are discussing political conmanship, an illegal and immoral Motion. If we allow one Member to talk like that, would I be in order to also say that you will expand the debate and we talk about others’ immoralities? Would it be okay if we engage in such verbiage? I request you to enforce your ruling that we be of decorum. If the other side or some people start talking the way they are doing, we have some very hot-blooded Members on either ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Jubilee Party was given the mandate by the public to run this nation. In order for it to do so, it has vested its trust in one leader, President Uhuru Kenyatta. The leader of the Jubilee Party also happens to be the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the nation. For us on this side, our work is to persuade the Jubilee Government to deliver to our people and oppose when we think it is transgressing.

In order for our people to receive services, we must have a functional Jubilee Government. If Jubilee Government has come to this House and claim, and we believe them, that their functionality is being affected by any person they think is disloyal and that if that person was withdrawn from their rank, then they would deliver to us, that has persuaded me and I beg to support this Motion.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is a House of order. If you allow Members to talk back, overrule and heckle you, I am the best at that. Do not allow this because when others start it, this House will be disorderly. So, make your ruling with finality. I beg you.

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity to make a few remarks regarding this important Petition. Delivery of services in counties depends very much on the quality of human resources we have. However, there are three mistakes that happen in all counties. One, employment in all counties follows political loyalty and needs. They do not follow what the requirement is in terms of human resource establishment. I think the responsible Committee should look at whether the method of recruitment in Machakos County follows the line of the needs they have. Two, there is a lot of politicization of ...

that they are used for campaigns, thuggery and advancement of causes for which they are not employed. When these governors leave office, the incoming governor finds a team that hitherto, was fighting him or her or whose commitment was not about public service. Third is the manner in which public servants in counties are treated when it comes to matters of termination of services. It is in the fashion of kangaroo courts or it is already decided somewhere by some thugs that you should be thrown out of office because you belong to a clan that did not vote for ...

12 May 2020 in Senate:
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Not on that matter, but to plead with you because the security issue that was raised by Sen. Githiomi touched me and I wanted you to just consider something that I observed. It appears from the narrative of Sen. Githiomi that there is negligence; there is abdication by police officers in that part of the world. You heard the litany and the gruesome manner in which innocent women were murdered. Am I in order to ask you to include in part of the directive, that disciplinary processes be instituted with a ...

12 May 2020 in Senate:
Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. There are two issue here; whether it is a Communication or a Ruling, there are certain Communications that are not debatable because the debate is of no use. The debate regarding those Communications will not change the subject matter of Communication. If it is a Ruling, of course, it is not debatable. However, given the nature of the Communication that was made by the Speaker, is it useful to debate because it cannot be changed or altered here? It is a Communication that came with finality. It is what it is.
