• 15 Aug 2014 in Senate: en. Hassan, you are a lawyer and you know that impeachment sometimes does not need to prove--- We found that most of the offences are misconduct, but not gross. The lawyers and the Senate must come up with a law which will guide us on threshold. This is because they say that threshold is left to the individual member. Some of us might say that threshold means something different. We need some guidance in law, so that we know the parameters of threshold. Mr. Speaker, Sir, with those few remarks, I support. view
• 16 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I wish to join my other colleagues to congratulate Sen. Musila. I also want to congratulate the Deputy President for giving those directives. We, as a Senate, are here to protect our citizenry. By saying so, I mean that we are here to protect, follow and observe the law. The head teachers or principals must observe the law. The law is very clear and I would like the Committee on Education to ensure that, by Friday next week, those principals who will not have released these certificates are taken to court. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, ... view

• 24 Jun 2014 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this Motion is pertinent to me and my people in Samburu County. As we speak about insecurity in Kenya, some of us who have worked under those agencies have a lot to talk about. Insecurity did not just start the other day when the Ole Lenku or the Kimaiyos are there. This issue has been affecting us for many years. I would like to urge all the leaders whether they are in CORD, Jubilee or any other party to stand up for Kenya. Kenya at this moment is at cross roads because of insecurity. We have ... view
• 24 Jun 2014 in Senate: We do not want to see another Saba Saba . Those of you who were there during the SabaSaba of 1990 know what I am talking about. I was there and we would not like to see another Saba Saba coming up. We have achieved all we wanted. Section 2A tuliitupiliambali . The people who were killed in Mpeketoni were not just from one tribe. When I saw their names, they were the Giriama and the Kambas. Those were Kenyans, they were not from one tribe. Kenyans were killed and we want to know who killed them. We want to ... view
• 24 Jun 2014 in Senate: initiative elders? Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, on poaching, we are trying to blame the Chinese. The Chinese do not have guns and do not know our areas. But some people are using our local boys to kill our animals. Everybody must come out and assist our President so that we curb insecurity in Kenya; whether you from the CORD or Jubilee coalitions. Please, brothers, just assist us. Let us stand as one country. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, on the issue of terrorism, we have about 1,000 kilometres of border between Kenya and Somalia. I have been asking myself: The KDF ... view
• 24 Jun 2014 in Senate: From there to Nairobi is about 700 or 800 kilometres. Why are police roadblocks there? Where are the people of the Nyumba Kumi ? I cry and pray that we should stop taking the Orengos to record statements for no reason. view
• 24 Jun 2014 in Senate: Let the Jubilee and CORD coalitions stand up as parliamentarians and as leaders of Kenya. Please, I am begging you, let us stand as one people because Kenya is at crossroads of insecurity, poaching and many other ills affecting us. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, with those few words, I thank the Mover of this Motion. view
• 25 Mar 2014 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I wish to contribute to this very important Motion because Kenya is under threat from external forces; people who do not want to see Kenya enjoying the fruits of Independence. They do not want to see Kenyans interacting and building this great nation. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, terrorism in Mombasa should be taken as a serious national threat. Everybody from the political leaders, religious leaders from all faiths, the Government and security forces, must come out and denounce terrorism. Terrorism is a threat which can destroy Kenya. The safety of our people wherever they ... view
