Sen. Madzayo

Sen. Madzayo Asante Bw. Spika. Ninataka kwanza kumshukuru ndugu yangu Mwaruma kwa kuleta hii Petition hapa.

Tukiangalia pande za Turkana, wamepata mafuta, kule pwani, hususan upande wa Kilifi kumepatikana vitu kama mawe...

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

Sen. Madzayo Mr. Speaker, Sir, is the distinguished Senator for Machakos County, Sen. (Dr.) Kabaka, whom I respect so much in order to start canvassing this matter before it is even ventilated by the Joint Committee of Parliament? If he wants to air those views, my suggestion is that he...

Please conclude, Sen. Madzayo. You have one more minute. (Sen. Cheruiyot consulted the Deputy Speaker) Sen. Madzayo Ahsante sana, Bw Naibu Spika. Naona huyo ambaye yuko na wewe anakunung’unizia. Kama hajui Kiswahili ama anakielewa lakini hawezi kutafakari vile inavyotakikana, asije hapo akakuambia ya kwamba, “Wakati wake huyu umekwisha.”

Order, Sen. Madzayo! March 19, 2019 SENATE DEBATES 16 Sen. Madzayo Your time is up. I can see that Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. is not here. Proceed, Sen. Ongeri; you have two minutes.

Sen. Madzayo

Sen. Madzayo Very well, Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. Would you want to welcome your constituents? March 19, 2019 SENATE DEBATES 21 Sen. Madzayo kutumia neno ambalo sio sahihi. Sio haki kwake kusema maneno haya ni sawa mbele ya wanafunzi kutoka Kaunti ya Makueni, ambao Seneta wao yuko hapa, na amesifiwa...

Very well, Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. Would you want to welcome your constituents?

Asante, Bw. Naibu Spika, kwa kunipa nafasi hii kuwakaribisha wanafunzi wa shule ya Upili ya Thomeandu. Wacha nikurekebishe kidogo, kwa sababu wewe ni Mbantu kama mimi, na hungeweza kulitamka jina “Thomeandu” vizuri. Jambo la pili, namshukuru Sen. Sakaja na Sen. Madzayo kwa kusema kuwa mavazi yangu yanapendeza. Tatu ni kuwakaribisha...

Sen. Madzayo On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker.

Sen. Madzayo Senator, your point is noted. Sen. Madzayo, you have only one minute left.

Sen. Madzayo: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. Bi Spika wa Muda, ni sawa makamu wa Rais ikiwa anafanya jambo kama hilo, ninampa kongole kwa kufanya hivyo, lakini hiyo imekuja muda baada ya watu wameshapata hasara ya maisha na wengine wamekufa. Angechukua hiyo hatua March 19, 2019 SENATE...

Sen. Madzayo Proceed, Sen. (Rev.) Waqo. Senator, just before you commence, I would like to reduce the minutes from five to three because we have a lot of interest. We also need to be fair to all our Members.

Sen. Madzayo Mr. Speaker, Sir, my good friend, the distinguished Sen. (Dr.) Ali, said that they had discussed. Is he insinuating that he was pre-emptive of my Statement or was he aware that this matter was going to come up before the House hence the reason as to why he...

Je itakuwa sawa kwa Mwenyekiti kuweza kufafanua kwa kutumia lugha inayoeleweka anaposema kwamba haina haja ya Sen. Halake kuuliza ni kwa nini huu Mswada...

Bi. Spika wa Muda. Nitajibu kwa Kiswahili. Ningependa kumweleza Sen. Madzayo ya kwamba, sikuwa na shida wala hoja ya nidhamu wakati Sen. Halake alisimama. Ilikuwa ni kumpa maelezo zaidi. Katika Bunge la Seneti tuko na shida kwa sababu Mswada huu ulikuwa ushajadiliwa hapa na tukaupitisha, ilhali ulianzishwa tena katika Bunge...

Madam Temporary Speaker, I rise on a point of order in agreement with Sen. Madzayo that we had canvased this Bill in the Senate. It starts with the word “county’. Therefore, it should have originated from this Senate. We would like the Chairman of the Committee to tell us why...

Sen. Sakaja, can you have your microphone on?

Sen. Madzayo

Sen. Madzayo Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, before we move on to next Order, we were to go back to the Statements. Sen. Sakaja had requested the Speaker who agreed to come back after we were through with Committee of the Whole. That was the position.

Sen. Madzayo Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. It is common knowledge and sad to note that counties do not recognize the trade unions. This is contrary to Article 41 of the Constitution which is very clear that everybody has the right to associate him or herself with any trade...
