8 May 2013 in Senate:
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I thought my colleague Sen. Orengo spoke about the adjournment of the House and not adjournment of debate. In any case, is it in order for the House to adjourn its important business simply because people want to attend a funeral service? It is optional; we must not all go, but the country must continue working.

8 May 2013 in Senate:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I stand to support the Motion on the grounds that it is on the lips and the minds of every Kenyan today as to what is happening to the security of this country.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, since you have confirmed that you are aware of this meeting in Mombasa, we are quite prepared to go and participate in the deliberations together with the Governors. We request the Senate, through you, that we should not be made to travel in economy class while the Governors are travelling in business class.
