Sen. Orengo Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to welcome and remind them that they have such an important challenge ahead of them; to recast this net of Pan-Africanism and redefine it, so that it can define our African sphere. It is quite ambiguous right now and that is why most...

Order, Sen. Orengo! You were not there alone.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, schools have acronyms nowadays. Alliance Boys High School is widely referred to as ‘Bush.’ Lenana School where I was is referred to as ‘Changes.’ Nairobi School is referred to as “Patch.’ We definitely share different generations of life. That said and done, I wish the students well...

Order, Sen. Hassan. Please, conclude.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to welcome and remind them that they have such an important challenge ahead of them; to recast this net of Pan-Africanism and redefine it, so that it can define our African sphere. It is quite ambiguous right now and that is why most of our...

Order, Members. I will restrict you to a maximum of one minute.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. This is a school composed of young pretty girls and it falls under my county. I am glad to say that my second-born daughter, Salma Mbuvi Sonko, who is currently in university, is a product of this school. I encourage our young girls that education...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to join you in welcoming the girls from Riara Secondary School and the gentlemen who are also visiting. Riara Schools are known to perform well in academics. I encourage the girls to work hard because their dreams are valid. Somebody challenged dreams here, but...

Sen. Orengoher body somewhere else. You can see this pattern. You can tell who has killed. I am appealing to the Government to the extent that they can carry out a judicial commission of inquiry over these extra judicial killings. If this is handled just as a simple crime, it...

I see a lot of interest. We also have an equally important Motion to deliberate on. Therefore, try to save time. I have given you two minutes but if you can save one, I will be happy. Proceed, Sen. Sang.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to take this opportunity to thank the Senate Minority Leader for bringing up this Statement. Willie Kimani is personally known to me. He was one year behind me in campus. When we were in school, we were student leaders together. Looking at the organisation he...

Sen. (Prof.) Anyang’-Nyong’o

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to be very brief and to tell this House that nothing is going to happen because the trend is that nothing happens when there are extra-judicial killings. For example, during the post-election violence, a young man called Peter Adiyo in Langas was shot by a...

Fortunately, no Member of this House has the capacity to shout like a wolf.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I join my colleagues in condemning what happened to the three people who were killed in the last five days. It is a surprise to me because a policeman who is supposed to give you security is the same person who will turn around and brutally kill...

Sen. Obure.

Mr. Speaker, Sir. First, I want to convey my personal condolences to the families of the three. Secondly, this brutal and barbaric action has provoked the anger of the nation. This is not the first time this is happening. This issue of abductions is a common occurrence. On this particular...

Sorry, it is long. I wish you could conclude it in ten seconds.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, the man has since disappeared. The family has visited every morgue, police cell in the Republic and the young man has not been traced. We condemn these kinds of actions and we demand justice for the victims.

Sen. Orengo On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. While I totally agree with what my brother, the Senator from Nyeri County is saying, I am wondering whether the forum is correct. We know what is going on around this matter. They are a bit complicated and it is...

Sen. Orengo Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you for welcoming these two delegations from Vihiga and Siaya counties. I need not say more because once the Speaker has given a word of welcome, that is on behalf of the entire Senate. The two delegations came as guests of the Implementation Committee...

Sen. Orengo Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is a very important day for the people of Kenya, especially those from my county. It is sad for my county which only gets about Kshs4 billion. Part of this money ends up in the pockets of the governor and contractors. Most governors...

Sen. OrengoWhat is your point of order, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale?

Sen. Orengo Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Sen. Njoroge is right in demanding that I explain what the President had done or said. I cannot because I was not there. You are asking me to be what I cannot be. It is for him and others who were there to...

Sen. Orengo Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I beg to request the following Statement from the chairperson of the Standing Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations. She is not here. However, there are Members of that Committee here who could give me an indication as to when the Statement requested...

Sen. Orengo

Sen. Orengo I can see some Members of that Committee; Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale and the Senate Minority Leader are Members of that Committee and the Statement is on the Table. Could I ask one of them to respond? The Senate Minority Leader (Sen. Wetangula) : Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it

Sen. Orengo On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. I am quite satisfied with the ruling from the Chair but Statements when sought are not property between the Chair of the Committee and the person who requested the Statement. It becomes the property of the House. There are sub-statements...

Sen. Orengo Madam Temporary Speaker, I am interested in the issues that were raised by Sen. Murkomen, because the truth shall make us free. It is true that lawyers - I belong to that profession - have been used as conduits to collect money by making sure that the ‘proper...
