Sen. Mbuvi

Sen. Mbuvimshtakiwa ana njia mbili katika sheria. Mshtakiwa anaweza kukubali ama kukata rufaa. Kwa hivyo, jukumu hilo ni lake.Ningependa kusema kwamba sisi kama Seneti, ni Bunge ambalo linaheshimiwa katika Kenya nzima. Ikiwa kuna Mkenya ambaye haki yake haitatimizwa kwa sababu tumeamua ni lazima mambo yawe hivyo, kwa maoni yangu, naona...

Bw. Spika, asante kwa kunipa nafasi hii ili nipinge Hoja hii. Kitu cha kwanza, hii Hoja imetolewa na majina ya wale Maseneta ambao kwa upande wangu nina hakika wanaweza kufanya kazi hii.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have no problem. If the feelings from my colleagues and the relevant chairs of committees is that they want the Senate Majority Leader to do that work, that is okay. However, the Standing Orders speak about chairpersons of committees. But that notwithstanding, I am willing to...

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir.

Sen. Mbuvi Order, Sen. Sonko. I think you are repeating yourself. You have made your case. You have said that we should wait for the HANSARD.

Sen. Mbuvi

Sen. Mbuvi Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I stand to support what Sen. Omar has said. I would like to speak about some measures we need to take as leaders. I think there is a lot of “boxing” going on among leaders of various institutions. I think at times solutions...

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. As you sleep over it as our colleague has just said, I would like, as you give your communication, to guide us. It seems as if the Principal Secretaries do not understand whether, indeed, a Bill can emanate from the Senate or...

Order, hon. Senators! First, you must appreciate that Sen. Sonko is not even contributing. He is trying to inform the Senator from Murang’a. I do not know to what extend that Sen. Kembi-Gitura has been informed. Sen. Kembi-Gitura, please, concludes.
