• 6 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, with tremendous respect to the Chair, I was seeking your guidance and indulgence regarding what happens when we have that kind of exchange and the offending Senator gets away with it and sits down? When that happens, that becomes the record of the House. This House must be a House that keeps records 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
• 1 Mar 2018 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is the Senate Minority Leader in order to mislead the country and this House? Yes, he has a right to the answer to his Statement, which has been read. But in what context is he addressing the House, saying that the swearing-in was not a Luo affair? Which part of the answer to that Statement referred to--- view
• 1 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, every person in this country – irrespective of where they were born or whatever their names are – is a Kenyan. So, for the Senate Minority Leader to try and divert what the answer is because he has raised issues which are being addressed and which he can address without political innuendo or making some Kenyans feel like they are targeted. It is not right in the first place. So, can he confine himself to the Statement given? The Standing Orders require – and he knows that, as a long standing Member – that a Member must ... view
• 1 Mar 2018 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Statement that was sought by the Senate Minority Leader is in black and white on this paper. For avoidance of doubt, it can be read out as to what he sought specifically.

• 1 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am just wondering whether the Senate Minority Leader should use this platform of Parliament to try and make good his political shortcomings. It is in public domain that he did not attend the swearing-in. Now that he did not attend, he is trying to justify--- view
• 1 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, again, you heard Sen. Khaniri saying “you are over- indulging this man”. Our Standing Orders are very clear that:- “A senator shall only address another Senator as “Senator”. I am the Senator for Kiambu by right via an election. The people of Kiambu gave me votes to come to this House that I can share with Sen. Khaniri and Sen. Wetangula and still be left with a balance. view
• 1 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it does not matter, but I would excuse Sen. Outa because he is new in this House. He came from the other House and he is learning the Standing Orders of this House. However, when he does so, then he will have the courtesy and know how to refer to his fellow Senators. I am just keen that we follow the rules of this House to the letter because we are also setting a precedent. One, when Sen. Outa says that the so-called swearing-in was in accordance with the Constitution; which Constitution or Article of the Constitution ... view

Naomi Shiyonga Masitsa on Wednesday, 14th February, 2018 regarding the rampant Road accidents on the Nakuru-Eldoret Highway. As I give this response as received, I want to bring to the attention of this House that, indeed, we had received an earlier response which, in the purview of the Committee, we thought it was not satisfactory. Therefore, we sought a better explanation. I received this Statement as I walked to this House. I hope and believe it answers all ... view
