Sen. (Dr.) Zani Mr. Speaker, Sir, I stand to request for a Statement regarding intergovernmental relations, governance and management of county governments. I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.45 (2) (b) to seek a Statement from the Chairperson of the Sessional Committee on Devolved Government regarding the role of the...

Sen. (Dr.) Zani Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is a great breakthrough for the Committee on Finance Commerce and Budget to bring the Budget Policy Statement in advance in comparison with last year when the timelines were a bit delayed. This did not give us a good chance to discuss the...

Sen. (Dr.) Zani Mr. Speaker, Sir, mine is more of a question: In view of the foregoing and now that the National Assembly Speaker has accepted that either he made a mistake, an oversight or a misinterpretation of the Constitution and the Standing Orders, what is he presenting on the...

Sen. (Dr.) Zani Mr. Speaker, Sir, Sen. Sang has been on that Chair several times representing the Speaker. Therefore, he has already exhibited his capability to be a Member of the Chairperson’s Panel. He has also exhibited his dedication in this House by bringing some of the Bills that have...

Sen. (Dr.) Zani Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The whole exercise of allocating Senators to the various Committees has been an interesting lesson on the advantages of continuity and change. From the logic that has been used in allocating Senators to the various Committees, certain things stand out. Initially,...

Sen. (Dr.) ZaniSen. Muthama, what would be the right thing, according to you?

Sen. (Dr.) Zani I do not need a clarification because I have been following. Sen. (Dr.) Zani Okay. (The Deputy Speaker (Sen. Kembi-Gitura) consulted with the Clerk-at-the-Table) Order Senators! In my very considered opinion, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale has raised an extremely fundamental issue. This is an issue that we cannot...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to add something. You have already contributed. You can only raise a point of order.

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. As we look at what Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale said, we are trying to look at Article 100--- Order! Is that a point of order or are you contributing to the debate again?

Sen. (Dr.) Zani It is demeaning Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir and it is unconstitutional. I do not know about the unconstitutional aspect because the word is still there in the dictionary and I think that is February 10, 2016 SENATE DEBATES Sen. (Dr.) Zanibecause you must respect everybody. I do...

Sen. (Dr.) Zani Mr. Speaker, Sir, I start by congratulating you for steering this Senate which is the second one since 1963. We have really been instrumental in setting the structures. The next set of Senators who will come will really have an easier job because the structures have been...

Sen. (Dr.) Zani Sen. Wetangula says it is big money. I hope they rot using that money. I hope they are not even able to use it successfully. It is just the whole story. I sympathise with this Committee. Sen. Kittony, it must have been a lot of hard work...

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. My friend Sen. Muthama has made a very serious allegation about the presence of a University for stealing in this country. This is very serious and it affects the reputation of all Kenyans, Senators included. I think this is a point...

I think more importantly Sen. Muthama, is whether the President of Zimbabwe said it or it is part of those parody December 2, 2015 SENATEDEBATES

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I will try to be careful but the truth of the matter is that the allegations were made against Kenyans and that is how we were quoted. I can go further and say that even when the Pope was here, he told us that we take...

Sen. Muthama, I want to dispose of the most straightforward issue; whether the President of Zimbabwe said what you said or whether there was evidence to that effect. If there is none, you can withdraw that statement. You do not need to apologize because the President of Zimbabwe is not...
