  • 15 Jul 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I really hate to disrupt my senior, but is he in order to insist that what is more believable is what he was told by his supporters, against firsthand information from somebody who participated in that meeting as a leader? Could he substantiate beyond just telling us that he was told by his supporters? view
  • 15 Jul 2014 in Senate: That he substantiates the statements that he has made about the State House meeting. view
  • 10 Jul 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Is Sen. Hassan in order to rise on a point of order when Sen. Murkomen described Wiper Party yet when Sen. Muthama described URP as “United Rift Valley Party” he did not rise? In Western and Nyanza Provinces, we have several Members of Parliament. view
  • 10 Jul 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker Sir, I rise to make some contributions with regard to this Bill. From the outset, I would not want to commit myself to either supporting it or opposing it, because this is a very important amendment Bill in the sense that it is giving us an opportunity to evaluate the Political Parties Act after the Act came into operation following a General Election.

  • 10 Jul 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, Sen. Hassan continues to use the word “coalition” with political parties as if they mean the same thing. We are talking about the Political Parties Act, he is talking about the CORD Coalition and what they stand for. That is not a political party. The amendment relates to political parties and not a coalition. So, it would make more sense if he gave examples of political parties rather than coalitions. If you look at the amendment, it talks of political parties. view
  • 10 Jul 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I did not want to interrupt the Senator but I want to point out that the Senator gave an elaborate and fairly generous description of the ideals of his coalition but there is one aspect that he attributed to the entire coalition.

  • 8 Jul 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, there is an issue that was raised by Sen. Wetangula. I want to follow up from that in terms of the procedures by the TSC and the disciplinary issue that was raised against the teacher under the TSC. This may not necessarily be the same issue that was taken to court because if the teacher was charged in court and was released on a technicality; that does not preclude the TSC from preferring the correct disciplinary processes. Could the Chairperson clarify the issues that were before the court and those that were before the disciplinary committee within ... view
  • 8 Jul 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, while agreeing with the concerns being raised by Sen. Obure and Sen. Kembi-Gitura, it is important to note that the Constitution and the legal regime in this country provide a process of setting aside a decision that has been made by a tribunal. If somebody does not agree with the TSC Disciplinary Tribunal, there is an opportunity through the law to present their issues and appeal against it.
