Sen. M. Kajwang’ Mr. Speaker, Sir, allow me to congratulate Sen. Nyamunga for bringing up this matter. In her opening remarks, she talked about defilement of children in Kisumu County. However, this is not a problem that is unique to Kisumu County. This is because even in Homa Bay County,...

Sen. M. Kajwang’ Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Article 38 of the Constitution provides for the right to free and fair regular elections. Our Constitution has gone further to enshrine public participation during public participation fora that are normally conducted in the enforcement of the several laws of the country....

The Senator is out of order! You can only refer and make some references. You do not have to read the speech.

Sen. M. Kajwang’ On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Chairperson of the Standing Committee on Lands, Environment and Natural Resources has laid several Reports on the Table, which are in response to Petitions to this House. First of all, if you allow me, I wish to congratulate...

Sen. M. Kajwang’ Mr. Speaker, Sir, I appreciate that particular limitation. The fact that the reports have been laid on the Table, it means that Members have not---

Sen. M. Kajwang’ Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am sure sufficient interest would have been generated if the Chairperson could have given highlights. I know that, that particular Standing Order does not allow the Chairperson to get into details of the findings. However, with your leave, if you were to direct...

Yes, Sen. Kang’ata.

Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. May I thank the Members for the good expositions and contributions towards this Motion. Also, I take this opportunity to thank the Attorney-General, Emeritus Sen. Wako, for the good amendment. It is a logical amendment because it ensures that we do not have to keep...

Sen. M. Kajwang’ Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to support this Motion of Adjournment. I hope that the Senators will use the opportunity to spread the gospel of the handshake in their various counties. By the time we come back, we will have moved further in reconciliation, ensuring inclusivity and...

Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to support this Motion of Adjournment. I hope that the Senators will use the opportunity to spread the gospel of the handshake in their various counties.

Sen. M. Kajwang

Sen. M. Kajwang' Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. With all due respect, I want to disagree with every person who has given their submission. It is good for us to love tradition. I doubt if there is anyone who loves traditions more than me. However, this is not a practical...

Who do you want to inform because the Senator has already sat down. (Sen. Wako spoke off record) Sen. M. Kajwang', I will give you one more minute so that you can receive information from Sen. Wako, if you wish. Sen. M. Kajwang'(Laughter) (Laughter)

Proceed, Sen. M. Kajwang'. Sen. M. Kajwang' Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I do not know whether Sen. Wako was trying to imply that my father could be in this House and that he is, probably, a Luhya. Madam Temporary Speaker, I hope that this will not ignite or create...

Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for the opportunity to contribute to this Petition. We are not just calling for the protection of the Abasuba, but their recognition. When that is done, we will be able to protect their rich culture, heritage and language. Before Sen. Wako spoke, I wanted to...

Are there no more requests? Proceed, Sen. Kang’ata.

Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. With all due respect, I want to disagree with every person who has given their submission. It is good for us to love tradition. I doubt if there is anyone who loves traditions more than me. However, this is not a practical Petition. In Kikuyu...

Sen. M. Kajwang'

Sen. M. Kajwang’ Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support the sentiments expressed by Sen. Orengo and the other speakers on this matter. When we talk of sovereignty, we talk of a country being able to secure and protect its territory and citizens. It is pitiful that the people...

Sen. M. Kajwang' Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir. I join my colleagues in supporting the Statement by Sen. Nyamunga. As a country, we forget that in 1990, Kenya attempted to build its first car, which was called the Nyayo Pioneer and about five prototypes were developed. For those of us...

Sen. M. Kajwang Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to support and contribute to this Statement by Sen. Faki about the disappearance of persons. He was specific on the disappearance of persons from Mombasa County but this is a problem that affects the entire nation. In 2016, Amnesty International in their...

Sen. M. Kajwang’ Sen. Cheragei, the question is whether it is in order. You have two points of orders to respond to by Sen. M. Kajwang’ and Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr.

Sen. M. Kajwang’ On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Sen. Kipchumba Murkomen raises a very important issue which we needed to test. He talks about the Health Bill not having been signed. When I look at the website of the Presidency, on 21th June, 2017, the President assented...
