12 Nov 2015 in Senate:
On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. Is the Vice Chairperson of the Standing Committee on Health in order to say that they should have been informed that the name had been changed when they went there recently and yet I changed the name as the Minister for Medical Services in 2013, even before this Senate was elected? She should not load her ignorance on the specificity of the name of that hospital by saying that they will do it in the Committee. She should do it instantaneously.

12 Nov 2015 in Senate:
Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. Would I be in order to propose that we are actually engaging in a debate before the material time for the debate occurs? I would like to request the Senate that while notwithstanding the fact that the issues raised are very pertinent, they should come when the Motion comes before the House and the names are changed accordingly through an amendment to the Motion.

6 Nov 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have all been very patient this evening and I think nobody’s bill of rights should be violated. One of the things that I want you to say is that new challenges require new approaches and new strategies. This particular Committee works, as the Chairman says, under the constraint of time. Secondly, we, as Senators, did not have time to read the report. A word has been used here called “threshold”, and I am glad that the Senator for Murang’a has dwelt on it. It seems, to me, as I was sitting that a concept of threshold ...

However, I know I shall get another occasion to speak equally positively about him in another forum on another issue. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I ask my friend, Sen. Njoroge, to second this Motion because the wearer of the shoes knows best where the shoe hurts. I beg to move.

5 Nov 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would like to commend all the Senators who have paid great tribute to our colleague, Sen. Harold Kipchumba. When I spoke earlier, I did mention that one of the great American Presidents was disabled but was a great achiever. In fact, he is one of the longest serving Presidents of the United States of America (USA). I did not mention his name; he is Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who was President from 1933 to 1945. It is then that the Americans realised that good people can be presidents forever democratically and introduced the term limits. Mr. ...
