Mr. Speaker, Sir, I stand to support the Motion that has been moved by Sen. Wambua of Kitui County. The insecurity situation witnessed in Kitui County and other rural parts of this country is worrying. The man that Sen. Wambua referred to is my relative. Mutia Mutie is my brother-in-law...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to second this Motion. The people of Kitui are legitimate citizens of this country. The same applies to the people of Samburu County and other parts of the rural marginalized parts of Kenya. As such, they all deserve protection from the Government. Like the Liberian...

Sen. Wambua On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir.

Sen. Wambua Yes, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will go straight to the point. Our own staff at Parliament have had their per diems slashed to almost zero. We expect parliamentary staff to go on official business in New York and give them a per diem of less than 400...

Sen. Wambua So my time begins now. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I thank Sen. (Prof.) Tom Ojienda for bringing this Statement. Many things have been said by my colleagues. Perhaps what my colleague would have thought of doing was to bring a substantive Motion because the issue of boundaries for...

Sen. Wambua Asante, Bw. Spika wa Muda. Pili, ukiona madiwani waliokuwapo zama hizo, utawaonea huruma. Wale wezi wao wako sawasawa ilhali wale waliofanyia wananchi kazi kisawasawa waliopoteza viti vyao. Ukiwaona ni watu wanaoishi “mahai” yaani maisha ya uchochole. Hawana mbele wala nyuma. Utashangaa kama walikuwa madiwani walioheshimika wakati huo. Mwisho,...
