Sen. Methu What is out of order, Madam Temporary Speaker, is responsibility of fact. It is not a fact that the Rt. Hon. Prime Minister Raila Odinga has any role in the gazettement of Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Referral Hospital.

Sen. Methu What was used?

Sen. Methu Madam Temporary Speaker, I am not withdrawing because I am saying that it is not a statement of fact. We are interrogating what he has said, that he wants to thank the President and the Prime Minister Raila Odinga for the gazettement of Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Referral Hospital....

Sen. Methu You are conflicted, then I am sure you can treat it as frivolous. (An hon. Senator spoke off record)

Sen. Methu I respect the Chair, of course.

Sen. Methu Madam Temporary Speaker, I wonder what issue Sen. Cherarkey has with the water that he wants me to take. We are very careful these days. I would not have also wanted to disrupt his flow of thought.

Sen. Methu Yes, that is what I am going to, Madam Temporary Speaker. I was just laying a background of why I am standing. I respect Sen. Cherarkey. I am rising pursuant to Standing Order No.105, on responsibility of statement of fact. In the course of his contribution, I have...

Sen. Methu The Cabinet Secretary has just said the stadium has been handed over to the Ministry of Defence. He has said that the stadium has been advertised; that is what I have said. As he handed over the Ol Kalou Stadium to the Ministry of Defence, what timelines is...

Sen. Methu Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Mine is also a follow-up question on a stadium. The people of Nyandarua have had aspirations of having their own Ol Kalou Stadium. The three times the President visited Nyandarua, he promised that we shall get a stadium. There was even...

Sen. Methu We are speaking about inclusivity. We cannot speak about inclusivity when we want to exclude some people from doing some business from some place. If you were to argue the same way, the Senator for Nairobi City County would say that people are doing business in Nairobi; then...

Sen. Methu Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank you for giving me this opportunity to also add my voice on this very important matter. We are here to interrogate whether the County Assembly of Isiolo really sat to deliberate on issues of impeachment of the Governor. I had an opportunity of...

Sen. Methu On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir.

Sen. Methu Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.53 (1) , to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries, on a matter of national concern, namely, the safety of potatoes grown in Nyandarua County. Nyandarua County is a leading potato producer and...

Sen. Methu Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, with tremendous respect to my brother, Sen. Cherarkey, first, he was among those crying due to imputing improper motives on a Senator. Did you hear the Senator for Nandi County allege that I live on a road reserve in Kiambu? I am very surprised...

Sen. Methu Sen. Issa Boy.

The Senator of Nyandarua County has corrected me that I should never call him my son. In fact, I will not call him my son again until he shaves his beard and combs his hair for him to look young, which is his correct age. (Laughter)

Sen. Methu Sen. Methu, you can inform Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale.

Sen. Methu(Laughter) June 5, 2025 SENATE DEBATES 46

Order, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale. Can you finish your debate? Your time is actually up.

Sen. Methuthat doctor that a person died, the only thing we can do is reprimand or caution. If we are to take adverse step in punishing this doctor, then he should be asked to go back to school. It should not about taking account of what they have done already....

thoracotomy. Forgive my pronunciation because those are foreign words to me. I know Dr. Khalwale understands them well. Those procedures performed to remove the injected foreign bodies were not done properly. It could be that that mess was messy such that the medical equipment was non-functional.There is a time I...

Madam Temporary Speaker, the Senate Minority Leader is insisting that I should go to the Dispatch Box. Thank you for your concern. Amen! Madam Temporary Speaker, today, I feel honoured by this Petition and how my colleagues have contributed. This is a Petition that I read here and it was...

Thank you, Sen. Methu. Let us now have Sen. Hamida. I hope you are not seated in that seat. Serjeant-at-Arms, you noticed that her seat malfunctioned and made her fall. You should have reacted faster. If that happens next time, the response time should reduce. She was down for a...

May 28, 2025 SENATE DEBATES 46 Sen. Methu Every time patients and their families are told to negotiate directly with the hospital, they are the ones who often lose, not the hospital. The hospital will argue that they did their best, that they provided the highest standard of medical care,...

May 28, 2025 SENATE DEBATES 45 Sen. Methu

Sen. Methu Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, just to inform Sen. Karen because she has mentioned Githaiga wa Chai and has said that I must be knowing him. For sure I know him and I met him today at a place where we were launching a party. He is a member...

Sen. Methu Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I would like to draw your attention to Standing Order No.101 (6) . I did not want to interrupt Sen. Catherine Muma, but she keeps referring to some person as Eddy, and I can see our Standing Orders provide that a Senator...

Sen. MethuSo the monies going to the County Government of Nyamira, be it the County Executive or the County Assembly, the CoB must say, “I am satisfied 100 percent that these withdrawals that are happening at the county level fund are backed by the law.”It is a very defeated argument...
