The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, mine is a point of order. It is very difficult to get these Cabinet Secretaries so that we can ask them questions on whichever platform. I know it might be easier to say, “let Eddie Oketch go to the Cabinet...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. For some strange reason, Sen. Cheruiyot seems to have asked the question that I wanted to ask, but I will ask a different one. Bw. Cabinet Secretary, let me congratulate you for what you are trying to do to rein in these predators, but...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, a very brief one on the same. Is the Cabinet Secretary aware of the credit facilities where logbooks are used to borrow monies; the practicality of the interest rates which keep on changing on a daily basis such that it becomes very difficult to ever recover...

Thank you, Temporary Speaker, Sir, for indulging me before the Cabinet Secretary leaves. This is the Cabinet Secretary for National Treasury and, therefore, it is important that we engage him as a House on certain things. I know that we are in the Budget Policy Statement (BPS) season. I have...

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) Sen. Sifuna, do you have another supplementary question? Sen. Maanzo?

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) Sen. Cherarkey.

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) Sen. Cherarkey, I do not know whether I will allow your question because your supplementary question has to be related to the primary question. You are ambushing the Cabinet Secretary with a question about Nandi when we are talking about issues of Nairobi in...

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) Let us take the other supplementary question from Sen. Catherine Mumma.

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) Sen. Mumma, I do not know whether I am going to allow your question because it does not relate with the primary question that was raised by Sen. Sifuna. Sen. Onyonka, what is your question?

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) Thank you. Cabinet Secretary, you may respond to the question raised by Sen. Maanzo and Sen. Onyonka. The questions raised by Sen. Cherarkey and Sen. Mumma, will depend on your prerogative, on whether you will respond or not, but they do not touch on...

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji)

The Temporary Speaker (Hon. Abdul Haji) Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I am very concerned about this double allocation of land that was initially allocated to, I believe, what is currently the Kenya College of Insurance, which was later allocated to a private developer. I have listened to the...

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) Sen. Osotsi, you may proceed.

Thank you Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. The issue of double registration among other malpractices in land management is real, not just in Nairobi, but all over the country.

Yes, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I thank the Cabinet Secretary for the comprehensive response to this question. However, to bring her further up to speed, the concern has been about the arrangement made on 13th March this year, where two plots were set aside, one for Maragua District Headquarters and...

It is because the Cabinet Secretary and I come from the same county. I know she is also concerned about that particular field. By the way, she is my political mentor. I have a lot of respect for her. The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji)not possible because this land is...

Yes, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Waziri, on this critical point of public participation that has been raised by Sen. Nyutu, you are aware of an ongoing Affordable Housing Programme (AHP) at Makongeni. The residents of Makongeni have asked me to ask you when you will sit down with them to...

Abdul Haji)...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, mine is a point of order on Standing Order No.105. It is very important. The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) You did not press the intervention button. I thought you wanted to ask a supplementary question?

I did. The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) You have a point of order directed to who?

The Cabinet Secretary has made an allegation--- The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) The Cabinet Secretary is not on the Floor at the moment.

But this is a House of record, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. We have to get things clearly. The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) Proceed.

The Cabinet Secretary has made an allegation that--- The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) Sen. Osotsi, are you seeking clarification from the Cabinet Secretary?

Yes, clarification on the fact that Sen. Nyutu is the person asking the question in this case. His friends have been making allegations that the Cabinet Secretary is involved in the grabbing. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, as a House of records, I think it is important for the Cabinet Secretary...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I appreciate that offer from the Cabinet Secretary. Maybe she could be kind enough now to direct her Ministry that the threatened evictions be put on hold until we have that conversation. Cabinet Secretary, I believe you will agree with me that it would be pointless...

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) Thank you very much, Cabinet Secretary. We have come to the end of the questions and answers. At this point, we would like to permit you to leave. We would also like to thank you for answering all the questions comprehensively and for attending...

Geoffrey Ruku) : Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for the questions and the good work which the Senate is doing to...

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) Sen. Cherarkey.

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) Sen. Eddy and Sen. Cherarkey, I must confess that you did not give the Cabinet Secretary an opportunity to conclude his submission. He was probably coming to that. If you had been patient as you stated, Sen. Eddy, he probably was transitioning to the...

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) Sen. Cherarkey, what is your intervention?

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) Thank you, Senator. Cabinet Secretary, please respond. The Cabinet Secretary for Public Service, Human Capital Development and Special Programmes (Hon.

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji)I wish Sen. (Prof.) Ojienda, SC, was paying attention to this point of order, which was raised by Sen. Okiya Omtatah. He would have given his line of thought. However, Sen. Okiya Omtatah, what I would probably rule is that during your submission, when you...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. On the point of order that you have ruled on, my view is that this Motion does not seek to debate the report. What is before us is not the report of the Maraga team, but the Mover of the Motion has just made...

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) Sen. Cherarkey, before you proceed, withdraw the word “howlers” from the records of this House.

Sen. Abdul Haji) : Sen. Wambua, you are continuously challenging the Speaker to take action on an individual he does not know about. Can you mention the individual for the Speaker to know what actions to take? Sen. Wambua, you may proceed.

Sen. Cherarkey, relax. Relax, Sen. Cherarkey. We listened to you when you were talking. We were calm. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, two things. One, I have not even landed.

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Sen. Cherarkey is my gym-mate. We go to the gym together and he tells me all the time that I am a warrior. I am wondering why he is troubled. I have not been saying anything. The warriors in this House must act and...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I heard bishops of the Kenya Assemblies of God make reference to the Senator for Nandi County. They said that the pulpit is desecrated, hence the Senator for Nandi County should not have used the pulpit to say the things that he said. Those are not...

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I wish Sen. Cherarkey listens to people making submissions on the Floor, and if he cannot, at least exercise his ability to read even that Standing Order that he has read. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, although I know the names...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I rise under Standing Order No.101 (1) . I have heard Sen. Sifuna mention a number of names and judicial conducts like Tundu Lissu and Heche, who come from Tanzania. It is on record, yet the Senate Standing Orders 101 (1) says- “Neither the personal conduct...

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) In my words I said, “if you consider the manner in which he came to power.” If you consider. There is nothing adverse about this. It is a fact that President Museveni came to power through a military takeover. It is a fact.

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) I never said more about the Tanzanian President.

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir.

Sen. Abdul Haji My apologies, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I beg to give notice of the following Motion- THAT, the Senate resolves that during the long recesses of the Fourth Session of the 13th Parliament, where any Statutory Instrument or Paper is transmitted for tabling in the Senate, and the Speaker...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker. I will just make a quick observation. One is the Statement on the dilapidated situation of the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) . I agree that most of the airports and airstrips in this country are like ramshackle. When it rains, the JKIA floods all...

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji) What is your point of order?

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Under Standing Order No.105 these young people were misled into believing it was a good job. Mercenaries do it willingly.

The Temporary Speaker (Sen. Abdul Haji)(Loud consultations)

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Chairpersons of Committees are not gagged. They have a right to express their opinion. Secondly, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would like to bring to your attention an issue under Standing Order No.104, which talks about declaration of interest. The Standing Order says that you can...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, would you kindly ask the secretariat to confirm to us if the Chairperson of the Committee on Labour and Social Welfare declared his interest as the Chairperson before he made any comment on this matter, noting that he will later sit to preside over the conversation...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, why are they restless? I will deal with Wamunyoro adherents now. The declaration of interest under Standing Order No.144 is specific. It is only on pecuniary and proprietary interest. Unless you are telling us that nowadays, before a chair of a committee speaks, he must say;...

When you go to Kobujoi, Kaptumo, Kabiyet, Maraba, Chesumei, Chemundo and ask the residents of Nandi in general what their priority is, they will tell you that their priority, as we talk today, is roads. Nandi County has the most pathetic roads in the Republic of Kenya. Most of those...
