• 29 Oct 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I table the evidence that I have. However, this House must take judicial notice of the conduct of Sen. Cherarkey because he has a personal interest in this matter. view
• 29 Oct 2024 in Senate: I would like to inform my neighbour and good friend, Sen. Cherarkey, that we are having challenges with the exposure of private data because of the inefficiency of the Office of the Data Protection Commission, which the Senate Standing Committee on Information, Communication and Technology has brought a number of statements here on that matter. So, for us to make progress on the issue of privacy of data, we need to start dealing with this office called the Office of Data Protection Commission. view
• 29 Oct 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for this opportunity to also make my comments on this very important Bill, the County Government's Election Laws (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bills No.2 of 2024) by the distinguished Sen. Crystal Asige. I must start by congratulating her for the excellent work she is doing bringing a number of Bills and also for the effective representation of the persons with disability in this House. This demonstrates that ODM is a party of quality when you look at this House. Madam Temporary Speaker, I know you served as the Chairperson of the Election Board of the party. ... view
• 29 Oct 2024 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, this is misconduct. She is trying to waste my time. view
• 29 Oct 2024 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I will ignore that one because it is not a point of order. I am talking about nomination and the Bill is on the issue of nomination. So, there is nothing wrong with me trying to talk good about my party and also praising Sen. Crystal Asige for the good work she has been doing in this House. Sen. Crystal Asige has made a very important amendment trying to put specifics to Article 177 of the Constitution which basically talks about the composition of the county assemblies. The composition of county assemblies under Article 177 of the ... view
• 29 Oct 2024 in Senate: This Bill will give clarity because Sen. Crystal Asige is proposing that we need to be very specific that two of the people to be nominated must be youth. Secondly, two of the people to be nominated must be people representing a marginalized group and then 5 per cent of the representation in the county assembly should be people with a disability. This is commendable and it will also give clarity to the Election Act, which, when it comes to making this determination after the election, we have had challenges at the IEBC, where you find that some of the ... view
• 29 Oct 2024 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I am very sorry. ‘Mr. Speaker’ is in our tongues, so we keep on--- I am sorry for that, Madam distinguished Speaker. The challenges we have with IEBC must be resolved. The other day when the courts made a very important determination on the selection panel of the IEBC, we thought that this matter would be resolved. We are now being told that people have also gone to court. We are asking our courts to also look at the judicial interest in a matter before making some of these orders because having IEBC in this country is ... view
• 29 Oct 2024 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, for those few remarks, I support. I again commend VIP, Sen. Crystal Asige, for this wonderful job she has done. You are doing so well. You have justified your nomination by ODM to serve in the Senate. I thank you. view
