Sen. MwarumaWe have dealt with the issue of decimals in dealing with the impeachment of Kericho. When you have decimals, you cannot have a third of a human, so you round up. I heard Sen. Cherarkey saying that we truncate. As a student of Mathematics, truncation means something very different;...

Sen. MwarumaVifaa vya kulelea watoto njiti, yaani Incubators, havifanyi kazi katika Hospitali ya Nyahururu na Nanyuki. Hii inaonyesha kwamba hospitali zetu hazina utayari wa kusaidia kina mama wanaojifungua. Nakumbuka wakati Kamati ya Afya ilitembelea Kaunti ya Taita Taveta, tulielezewa hospitali zetu hazina utayari wa kusaidia kina mama wanaoenda kujifungua.Tulielezewa kisa...

Sen. MwarumaSeveral issues have emerged from the discussions on this Motion. Just to be brief is that we need to devolve these services because students who are undergoing training in referral hospitals said that doing Masters and PhDs in their specialisations will enable them find their way to the regions...

Sen. MwarumaOne gets worried. Why is it that the DCI cannot act on information that has been given by whistleblowers? Does a parliamentarian have to do a statement and defend the allegations? If they can do that to me, what about the individuals who may be seeing possible corrupt actions...

Thank you, Sen. Mwaruma. That is the end of the debate. There are no more Senators wishing to contribute to this debate. So, I request the Mover, Sen. Olekina to reply.

Sen. Mwaruma

Sen. Mwaruma Sen. Mundigi, please proceed.

Sen. Mwaruma Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. Mheshimiwa, you recorded one of your colleagues. I want to know if you sought his consent because if you want to record somebody in an interview, then there must be an informed consent which means written consent. Did you have that informed consent?...

Sen. Mwaruma Asante, Bw. Spika. Hapo awali nilikuwa Mwakilishi wa Wadi. Ningetaka nijue kama kuna usuhuba wowote kati ya Bunge la Kericho na Gavana ama Mawaziri wanaofanya kazi nao? Pili, katika Kamati ya Ukaguzi na Uhasibu katika Bunge la Gatuzi la Kericho kunayo ripoti yeyote ambayo ilitolewa kulingana na matumizi...

Sen. Mwarumavote will be annulled, by virtue of the fact that some of you have refused to vote? If that is a consequence that you expected, can you invoke that part of the Standing Orders that you relied on, to annul that vote? This is because whether you vote or...

Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. Hon. Senator, as I have said, the 18 of us--- Let me talk of myself. Since we had not been inducted on the mode of electronic voting, we had requested the Speaker to give us a leeway to use roll call voting for the process...

Witness, you are still not discharged. Let us listen to Sen. Karen Nyamu and Sen. Peris Tobiko in that order.

Hon. MCA, you have stated that you did not vote because you feared manipulation. Manipulation by who and who had the administration rights during the proceedings of the Governor’s impeachment?

Madam Temporary Speaker, since the Speaker declined to allow roll call voting, we feared manipulation by the Speaker.

Proceed, Sen. Peris Tobiko.

Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. Mr. Witness, were all the MCAs present in the Chamber during the voting and in your observation, how many voted “Yes” and how many voted “No”?

Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. All the 47 MCAs were present in the Chamber. Since 18 Members did not vote, I expected 29 to have voted. However, at the end of voting, it came out that 33 voted, yet 18 Members did not vote.

Proceed, Sen. Margaret Kamar.

Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. Mheshimiwa MCA, I am a bit confused. You keep on saying 18 of you did not vote. We have listened to all the questions that have been raised and, at one point, you disowned Edinah. Did the 18 vote? Are you still confirming that actually...
