Keynan Wehliye Adan

Hon. Adan Keynan (Eldas, JP) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I have known Hon. Munyao as a nominated MP, Secretary-General of DP, and Minister for Livestock. In 1999, when Members of Parliament started agitating for their rights – I vividly remember then Hon. Munyao was living in Langata – we...

Hon. Adan Keynan (Eldas, JP) Hon. Temporary Speaker, access to education is a basic right. Before the Government of His Excellency President William Ruto, Northern Kenya was used as a recruitment bureau. People used to create an artificial security crisis, recruit teachers in Northern Kenya and post them. But within...

Hon. Adan Keynan (Eldas, JP) Hon. Deputy Speaker, dreams are valid. The State of the Nation address by the President has a number of positive issues that will add value to the well-being of the Republic of Kenya. Starting from microeconomic reforms, national stability, food security, housing and urban development,...

Hon. Adan Keynan (Eldas, JP) Thank you for your kindness. The reality is that we have a country, and we must begin from somewhere. This President has initiated efforts. I appeal to the naysayers to criticise the President and his Government positively. Please offer alternative solutions that will drive our...

Hon. Adan Keynan (Eldas, JP) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I first interacted with Mr. Lekulo in 1990 at Moi University, when both of us were pursuing a degree course and since then, we have been members of Moi University Alumni Association. Then, as fate would have it, later on, he...

Hon. Adan Keynan (Eldas, JP) Hon. Speaker, I was just watching your facial expression, and you are bored with the answer given. You are wondering whether this is the Kenya Airways that you are used to or a different one. That answer was referring to another Kenya Airways, maybe in...

Hon. Adan Keynan (Eldas, JP) For how long? The Chairman has referred to one year and glorified it. Maybe they will try to mend their books. Over the last few years, Kenya Airways has been making losses. What measures has the Kenya Airways (KQ) management 12th November 2025 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY...

Hon. Adan Keynan (Eldas, JP) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Before the Chairman responds... (Hon. Joseph Makilap consulted loudly)

Hon. Adan Keynan (Eldas, JP) Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for that guidance. In your public life as a lawyer and a magistrate, I know you used this road.

Hon. Adan Keynan (Eldas, JP) I pray that before your Speakership ends; you lead the leadership and Members of this House to use the Isiolo-Modogashe-Habaswein-Wajir-El Wak- Mandera Road. This is not the first time we are raising a Question, requesting for a Statement or seeking commitment from the government regarding...

Hon. Adan Keynan (Eldas, JP) Hon. Speaker, the Mover and originator of the Bill is a seasoned lawyer and an experienced parliamentarian. The person seeking the re-committal of specific clauses of the Bill is a seasoned lawyer and an experienced parliamentarian. It is in the interest of this House to...

Hon. Adan Keynan (Eldas, JP) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I also join my colleagues in thanking the Committee for bringing this important Motion but we must always tell the truth. The East African Community is going through serious challenges. Many states are not contributing. There are plenty of regional rivalries....

Hon. Aden Keynan (Eldas, JP) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. At the outset, allow me to congratulate Hon. Millie. I have interacted with her as an activist, a nominated Member of Parliament and an elected Member of Parliament. One thing that comes to mind whenever I see her is her...

Hon. Adan Keynan (Eldas, JP) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. At face value, this Bill is very good. It attempts to professionalise the services of great men and women of a very important sector of our economy. Over the years, we have just been paying lip service, saying the backbone...

Hon. Adan Keynan (Eldas, JP) Hon. Speaker, I want to thank Hon. Bashir. In addition to the matter, there is the issue of the court case between the Council of Governors and the Ministry on the same levy. In the last kamukunji, you informed us that everything had been sorted...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Last week, this House interacted with a response from the Ministry, which was not only wanting, but completely out of place. I almost sought your indulgence today to be patient with us because we are dealing with an entirely neglected sector. Two things come to...

Hon. Adan Keynan (Eldas, JP) I want to indulge you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Maybe your ears are not used to the livestock music, but that is on a light note. The Temporary Speaker (Hon. Martha Wangari) Hon. Keynan, you are out of order. All matters are important to the Speaker....

Hon. Adan Keynan (Eldas, JP) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. This is a very important Motion, but it is also good to be honest with ourselves. Do we need a Motion urging the Government at this time? I want to remind my good friend, Hon. Charles Nguna, that we are...

Hon. Temporary Chairman, civility in the management of our public affairs is not a sign of cowardice. I commend the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Communication, Information and Innovation, and my colleague, Hon. Aden for thinking out of the box. The reason why the people of Kenya have chosen...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Hon. Adan Keynan is on a point of order. Hon. Temporary Speaker, as a seasoned lawyer, you have already noted what Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo was trying to insinuate. This is a deliberative House. This Bill has gone through all the stages....

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I second. (Question proposed)

Thank you Hon. Temporary Speaker. This is a good Bill. It injects professionalism, enhances good governance and accountability within the policing sector. It also addresses public concerns on police misconduct, corruption and abuse of power. It also clarifies the National Police Service Commission’s mandate in relation to other security agencies....

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Hon. Adan Keynan, what is out of order? Hon. Temporary Speaker, with due respect to the leadership of both sides, we resumed just a few days ago. We have more than fifty Chairpersons and Vice-Chairpersons and yet, you can see the House...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I would have been surprised if Dr Mutunga had believed and presented this hollow, shallow and too generalised response to this House. I knew what I wanted when I drafted these questions. I knew what I was trying to address. I even knew the answers,...
