Sen. Hassan Mr. Speaker, Sir, like Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, I commend the Senate Minority Leader for bringing up this issue. There is a template that we had in the resolution of the crisis in Liberia. The rebirth of the State of Liberia was done minus Charles Taylor. Could our Chairperson...

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Thank you for this opportunity. The last person I would want to entangle myself with is the Senator for Nairobi because of obvious reasons. Mr. Speaker, Sir, under Standing Order No.20, my proper title is “Senate Minority Leader”. He must also appreciate...

Sen. Hassan Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I feel honoured that I am accorded this opportunity when you are seated on that seat. It might be the one and only time that you sit there. Therefore, it could be quite important for the annals of history to know that Senator No.003...

Sen. Hassan Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I agree with Sen. M. Kajwang, my junior in all fields. He followed me to Lenana School, he followed me to Moi University, now he has followed me to the Senate. On this one, I agree with him; an Hon. Member from somewhere. We...

Sen. Hassan On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I was elected like my able deputy, Sen. Sijeny, and the rest of us through a national delegates’ conference. The conference brought together all the Wiper Democratic Party delegates from across the country, constituting in excess of 3,500 of...

Sen. Hassan On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. The fact that other people will, for instance, feel that they do not want to compete for a seat against Sen. Hassan and, therefore, you go for an election at a national delegates conference with a sole candidate is,...

Sen. Hassan Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first, as a general note, there was a day I was travelling to Mombasa. I was seated next to a businessman and the plane to Mombasa left 30 minutes earlier. So, this man said, “the problem with Kenya Airways is that they never leave...

Sen. Hassan Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am sorry. I meant Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki. Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki was in my campaign team when I first ran for office. So, Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki has only ever been on a campaign team of two people; mine when I was seeking the presidency...

Sen. Hassan Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think the reason why we need to seek more clarity on this matter is that it will unravel one of the mysteries which has baffledSenators for quite a long time. The mystery is, how governors manage to find a “bypass”. We all understand...

Sen. Hassan Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you for this opportunity. First of all, let me talk about the teargas. That was not my first time to be teargassed. However, the teargas was so lethal in terms of its capacity to suffocate. I have had teargas canisters thrown right at my...

Sen. Hassan Thank you.

Sen. Hassan Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, Sen. Hassan has a point. Maybe at some point when we are looking at the Standing Orders, we ought to look at Article ---. The point in contention is actually in Article 132 (1) (ii) (c) because the report is supposed to be published...
