• 11 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I was getting worried that I may not catch your eye. I am very grateful and I do not take it for granted. Madam Temporary Speaker, I have just two issues: This Committee does very important work; it has an important responsibility regarding technology. We have two levels of government; the county governments and the national Government. I have had the privilege of discussing with Members of the National Assembly how the Budget is shared out. It has come to my attention that the national Government is working with the National Assembly to do certain ... view
• 11 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for the opportunity. I congratulate my friend, Sen. Cherargei, for the comprehensive report that he has given to us as a Senate. I encourage him as a young lawyer to continue scaling the heights and perform well so that he can come up with other laws. I urge the Chairperson and the Committee to look at an important activity that was referred to the Committee yesterday by the Speaker. They should try to find a way forward on the potential conflict that we have. I do not want to delve into the content. However, I ... view
• 11 Jul 2019 in Senate: The reputation of the Senate is in line and the institution is under attack. Parliament is in disarray if a significant part of it is dysfunctional and the resolutions of that significant part are not utilised by the entire Parliament. Therefore, what the Speaker referred to the Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs will be a landmark direction that will forever change the direction this nation will take in so far as legislative activity is concerned. It is a delicate matter that requires the wisdom of Solomon and the strength of Arceus. I hope that the Committee has both qualities ... view
• 10 Jul 2019 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. view
• 10 Jul 2019 in Senate: Yes, Madam Temporary Speaker. With reluctance to disrupt my colleague Senator of Kitui County, Sen. Omanga rose on a point of order, but when I listened to it, I did not see any order that was contravened. Would I be in order to ask you to rule Sen. Wambua out of order for raising a frivolous point of order? view
• 9 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for allowing me to join my colleagues in congratulating Sen. Halake. The Senator has done exemplarily well considering the fact that on the face of it, people may think that she comes from a marginalised community and gender. She has ascended, walked that path and she is now our celebrity. I congratulate her on her election. I hope that in her tenure, she will ensure that parties, as institutions instrumental in deepening democracy, will have funding and will be run in a sustainable manner. I pray that she will cement the place of women in ... view
• 9 Jul 2019 in Senate: I congratulate our sister. view
• 9 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I hate interrupting my two sisters as they fight over the Governor of Kakamega or any governor. view
• 9 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, however, if we look at our constitutional responsibility--- view
• 9 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I had not even made the point of order. Our function under Article 96 of the Constitution is very clear that we defend counties. Perhaps part of this problem is as a result of the money that the National Assembly is taking away. Part of it could be as a result of general lack of interest by governors. Would I be in order to ask Sen. Omanga to also put on record the fact that counties are underfunded, so that we do not just blame governors, but also understand the situations in which they operate? view
