Oginga Oburu

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I join you in welcoming the students from Siaya County and also the students from Makueni County. Before I comment on the visiting delegation from the United States of America (USA) , the two counties produced two very prominent Senators who are now governors. The...

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir.

(Loud consultations)

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I know that I should not be on the Floor when you are there, but gentlemen, relax. Take it easy. You are now in power. Power is transitory. Relax. (Loud consultations) (Laughter)

Is Sen. Wambua online?

Asante, Bw. Mwenyekiti wa

No, I do not need information because I have enough. (Laughter) Bw. Mwenyekiti wa Muda,

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity to congratulate Sen. Murkomen on his appointment as the Cabinet Secretary (CS) for Roads and Transport. Sen. Murkomen has been an outstanding Senator. I was not a Member of this Senate before, but being a Member of the East African Legislative...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity. I do not want to be lengthy. Remunerating or giving a lumpsum to former councilors is very important. I was a councilor from the year 1974 to 1975. Those days they were not paid any salary or anything like...

I extend the same to our own Parliamentarians. Some people work very hard. That is why one of the Senators said that it is very difficult to be a Member of the PAC or PIC. It is difficult because some people fight very hard to be Members. It is not...

Yes, thank you.

Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I thank my brother for the information. I was talking of my previous experience in the National Assembly, which has now been overtaken by events.

Thank you Madam Temporary Speaker, for this opportunity. I also join my colleagues in supporting this Petition, which is very important for us coming from around Lake Victoria.

Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I thank our two colleagues who have responded to this Motion. They have spoken on behalf of the other Senators. I have taken keen interest in their contributions, both North and South, in terms of what EALA has been able to achieve. Sen. Oburu has...

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity to contribute to the Presidential Speech. I start by thanking the President for having recognised that this was a very hotly contested election. Elections in Kenya are different from elections in all the countries in East Africa. I do not think...

What is out of order, Sen. M. Kajwang’?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am rising on a point of order on the issue which is being introduced by my very good friend, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, whom I respect a lot. That is the issue of the CSs coming to address the House. Is he introducing the Building Bridges...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker Sir, for the opportunity. Since my leader has already supported the Motion, I am also standing to support the Motion. However, I would like to just express a concern on one of the Members who has been proposed to the Committee, Sen. Ali Roba. Sen. Ali...
