6 Aug 2019 in Senate:
Madam Temporary Speaker, I am sorry to be using you as an example. However, I will be happy to visit Uasin Gishu County one day and walk on a road named after or for you. I know I will not be able to read in future. Therefore, I would not want to go into a small room to look for your name in some funny register. So, it will be better for this Bill to have provision for visibility once we recognise that you achieved a lot for us. That is another limitation I have identified. I hope that the ...

is my good friend to find that his name is on a map of Thika. He would be pleased that when you look at the map and design of Thika Town, there is Mwaura Street or Mwaura Avenue.

If it is an avenue or a street, that is an open place. You could walk there with your children and meet with other people. Other people who are associated with that city or town may be proud that the person after whom this street is named is a person they associate with. If you go to the State of Illinois in the USA, there is a town called Springfield where virtually every street is named after President Lincoln. You will find vehicles and buildings called Lincoln. Everything there, is named after Lincoln. When you are in that city called ...

6 Aug 2019 in Senate:
process through which a hearing can be carried out so that whatever allegation, presentations or representations that may be there, that may justify the removal of a person from the Hall of Fame can be heard objectively and be determined. What this particular piece of legislation does is to confer that power upon the governor. It does not give a process through which the name can be removed or the honour can be taken away. When an honour has been conferred upon you, you acquire proprietary rights over it; it becomes a benefit. For somebody else to have the right ...

1 Aug 2019 in Senate:
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I love listening to the Senate Majority Leader; he is a very eloquent person.

1 Aug 2019 in Senate:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, my point of order is that the Senate Majority Leader is a very serious debater, such that every issue that he raises to the Chair, we are enjoined to follow. Therefore, I wanted him to let the House know, so that if such a tycoon is around, we might be called upon to throw him out or ask the Serjeant-at-Arms to throw the tycoon out.
