Cherarkey Samson K

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. In Nandi County, we usually have regular blackouts which affects our business, as farmers, especially preservation of milk and other produce. What strategy does the Ministry have to ensure they prevent regular blackouts that affect the ease of doing business even as they do the...

On supplementary, we are discussing on the sanctity and protecting the issuance of rights and documentations. In Nandi County, there are more than 2,000 squatters that do not have access to land. I would like to ask this question to the Cabinet Secretary because she is here. Three weeks ago,...

It is under similar circumstances. Does the land you are referring to belong to Nandi County Government? Yes, because all land is managed through county governments. Then why not raise that question to the Governor? It does not belong to the County, but under the Agricultural Development Corporation (ADC) ....

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise under Standing Order No.1. We need guidance. Having sat in most of these committees, colleagues will agree that these reports of Level 3, Level 2, Level 4 hospitals and policy, especially some of the papers that have been laid today, should have a...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. It should go on the record of the House that when you were the Chairperson of Council of Governors (CoG) for Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights Committee (JLAHRC) , I was also the Chairperson of the Senate in JLAHRC. So, I agree with you....

On a point of information, Mr. Speaker, Sir.

I would like to inform Sen. Khalwale, my neighbour, that under the Mining Act, 2016, 10 per cent goes to the local community, 20 per cent to the county government and 70 per cent to the national Government. I also agree with him that under the law, the local community...

must include the interest, because Kshs1.3 million means small money to some individuals within Siaya County Government.I have seen in the report by the Committee on Roads, Transportation and Housing led by the Chairperson, Sen. Eddy, that this matter went to the Commission on Administration on Justice (CAJ). I want...

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. What is your point of order, Sen. Cherarkey? Mr. Speaker, Sir, we must be sticklers of the rules. Standing Order No.105 is on Statement of Fact. When the Senator who happens to be the Chief Whip of Government goes on record and...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. First, I want to comment on the statement by Sen. Okiya Omtatah on the issue of the Sugar Act. Looking at the request, I think our secretariat should assist. If you look at number one, we have already put in the Sugar Act. It is...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I retract and apologise because I want to drive my point home. I do not want sideshows. My point is simple and it is the genesis of this. First, we have mothers who do not have travelling documents. Secondly, there are children who do not have documentation....

Bi. Spika wa Muda, nasimama kwa Kanuni ya kudumu 105 na sehemu ya Katiba na uongozi, au Leadership and Integrity. Ningependa kumwuliza Mheshimiwa Seneta Kinyua aombe mshamaha na aondoe katika Taarifa ya Bunge la Seneti kusema kuwa, sina uwezo wa kuongea na Mhe. Musalia Mudavadi, ambaye ni Waziri wa Masuala...

On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker.

On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker.

Madam Temporary Speaker, we should be sticking to our own rules. I rise under Standing Order No.122 on gross disorderly conduct. You have made a ruling. You have even been gracious. You have tried to beg him to apologise. He has made it worse by asserting that the distinguished Senator...

Madam Temporary Speaker, thank you very much. I want to pick it from where the distinguished Senator, the seconder left. I think this Motion is very critical. We have to agree that the issue of health is a basic human right. They say a healthy nation is a wealthy nation....

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.53 (1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations on a matter of national concern regarding the safety of Kenyan citizens in Tanzania following the post-election unrest. Following Tanzania's October, 2025...

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

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

You are not the Speaker! Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise under Standing Order No.101 (4) on the contents of speech. Is it in order? First, he has made a wrong statement of fact contrary to Standing Order No.101 (4) on statement. I am not under discussion. The senior law lecturer...

No, no!

On a point of order.

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. On my own accord and on behalf of the great people of Nandi County, I express my deepest condolences following the untimely demise of Hon. Tubi Mohamed, the Member of Parliament of Isiolo South in Isiolo County. I came to know Hon. Tubi when...

You are not the Speaker to determine if we have quorum or not.

Madam Temporary Chairperson, I refer to Standing Order No.39. If you look around, there is no sufficient quorum to proceed. So, I draw your attention to this matter. I thank you. The Temporary Chairperson (

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I have heard Waziri, Hon. Ruku saying that there are people being investigated by the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) in the NYS over corruption. This is okay. However, I need to know from him, since we know the history of NYS with corruption...

Mr Temporary Speaker, Sir, under Standing Order No.58, we have understood the background of what the Cabinet Secretary is saying. We want precise answers on the questions. First, this is not a lecture room. Second, under the Companies Act, there is what we call the objects of a company. Whatever...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would have expected Waziri to be precise with an eye of a military marksman because I asked a very simple question. I wanted to know the strategies he has put in place to fight corruption in NYS. That was a specific question, but instead, he...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the Cabinet Secretary for National Treasury and Economic Planning, Hon. John Mbadi, was supposed to appear. If my memory serves me right, I think he has requested for many deferments of his response for far too long. When we left the Chamber yesterday, we were sure...

Clerk, can you give me the mic? Thank you. These are the Standing Orders that guide us like a Bible, through the Speaker. This is the creation of the Constitution under Article 123. When you look at Standing Order No.51A, which we amended, Part (6) is on scheduling the date...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. This is the first time you have pronounced my name well like my kinsmen. I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.53 (1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Health on a matter of countywide concern regarding the status of medical infrastructure and...

Sen. Omogeni, following the point of order, do you appreciate the benefits that come with SHA, so that from there, you may appreciate whether, indeed, it covered what the law allows SHA to cover and pay or whether it does not cover the entire cost and yet the law demands...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I withdraw the word ‘heckler’ and replace it with the word ‘heckling’. I was speaking on responsibility for statement of fact under Standing Order No.105. Can the Senator for Nyamira and the Commissioner of PSC, because we use that insurance, confirm that the medical package of insurance...

However, we found it unfair because Article 229 says that Parliament should consider. So what is the path of consideration? We must sit and listen to the management response.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. You cannot threaten a dry Kalenjin man. This is a straightforward matter in these rules and procedures, and those of us who sit in CPAC and CPIC are grateful to the Committee. You will remember the Civil Case 232 of 2017 on Alcoholic Beverages Association...

I know; I am just localising the matter, so that Members can understand. You have to appreciate when the argument was heated, there was a lot of misleading information in the House. I am just finishing by saying, Kenyans should understand what we are discussing. We are saying committees should...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, why is the House excited and I am yet to begin? I was continuing to second before we adjourned the House last time. The intent of this Motion is to ensure all police stations have CCTV cameras. This proposal is not anti-police. In fact, we want...

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...

I will deal with these howlers shortly. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, under Standing Order No.101---

I will deal with these howlers shortly. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, under Standing Order No.101---

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, can I say I will disapprove my critics shortly?

Of course, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, to howl is just to raise-- - Let me withdraw so that we have a civil dispute.

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 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...

Sen. Osotsi, having listened to the points of order, for the first time, Sen. Sifuna, I would want to disagree with you because Sen. Osotsi did mention the Heads of States. He said or imputed in the manner in which they were sworn into office. Sen. Osotsi, I ask that...

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

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

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we need--- (Sen. Sifuna spoke off record)

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, if my memory serves me right, you have made a ruling on the matter I raised under Standing Order No.101. It appears we are now discussing your ruling, which is unheard of. Would it be in order for me to invite you to invoke Standing Order...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.52 (1) to seek a Statement on a matter of international and national concern namely, the exceptional performance of Kenyan athletes at the recently concluded 2025 New York City Marathon, one of the premier marathons. Kenya has once again demonstrated its...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have two concurrent Statements. If you may, you can allow me to read both. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No. 53 (1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations on a matter of countrywide...

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...

I can only agree with that Statement, that when in distress, they should then contact the Kenyan Embassy. Do you want us to manage every Kenyan; their bedrooms and kitchens? It is not the business of Government to follow people around. I can only agree with that Statement, that when...

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, 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;...

Is there any report with the police stations? Is there any distress call to our embassies? Have they gone to the Red Cross in Ukraine and Russia? Have they recorded any signal that they are in distress? Can they give us evidence under Standing Order No.105, on the principle of...

We want to ensure that we bring accountability, professionalism and transparency to the police service.Therefore, I agree that Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras must be installed in all police stations in the Republic of Kenya. This will be for only two things; accountability and transparency.The Mover has alluded to the unfortunate...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I join my colleagues and the Nairobi City Senator to resist this intention to remove Jamhuri Park from its rightful owners. The Section on land in Article 67 is very clear that the National Land Commission (NLC) , the county government and the national Government are custodians...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. As I support this Motion, the Chairperson of this Committee should apologise to me because he had assured me I would second it. He actually gave me a lot of material to digest. I say that on a lighter touch. This is a straightforward matter....

Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I commend Sen. Githuku for giving the House elaborate details on what the report entails. As I rise to second, you and me were on the Floor of the House when, under the guidance of the Senate Majority Leader and the Senate Minority Leader, the...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you know I am always generous. I will allow three or four minutes to Sen. Mumma and three to four minutes to Sen. Mandago.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, for this opportunity. I want to thank you and many colleagues whom I will mention. However, let me make the following observation. First, I want to thank colleagues who have taken their time. The issue of youth unemployment is a ticking time bomb. I have noticed...

Mr. Speaker, Sir. I do not know why the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) guys are excited. I thank the ODM Secretary General, Sen. Sifuna for bringing this statement on teachers. I agree it is very unfortunate that teachers have to always make noise and to go for strike for their...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, and welcome back. It is good to see you in action. The last time I saw you, you were in my county. Please, continue visiting us, so that we may continue growing as one nation and one people. I rise to continue moving this...

My apologies, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. As we debate in the House and follow the rules, there are many young people who are following this conversation. Therefore, I am trying to touch base with them as well as I play by the rules. Please forgive me. Going by the teachings...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am surprised by the response of the Cabinet Secretary, Hon. Mutua, because Chemelil is part of Nandi County. From his response, I need clarity. He indicates that there were only representatives of Kisumu and Migori, and yet, Nandi and Kericho, which are part of...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Waziri Duale, welcome and thank you. You are doing a good job. My question is very simple. It is about the transition from Linda Mama to Linda Jamii. Did we at any point lose the package of Linda Mama as we transited to Linda Jamii?...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for once more granting me the opportunity to ask a question on behalf of Sen. Ojienda. Mr. Speaker, Sir, on behalf of Sen. (Prof.) Ojienda, I beg to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Health the following Question No.117.

Sen. (Dr.) Boni Khalwale, you may proceed.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am asking my question as guided by you. (Sen. Cherarkey spoke off record) That is what I am doing. Can I be heard in silence?

Sen. Nyutu, that is not the point of order.

Sen. Nyutu, proceed to withdraw that assertion.

Proceed, Sen. Osotsi.

Thank you---

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I do not know why the Majority Leader was worried before I speak. Nonetheless, I agree with him that we must be fair to everybody in terms of time. Mine is on the issue of ambulances. This is one of the most ignored but very...

people are in Suba, Homa Bay County and are stranded there. We must be told what the NLC is doing.I challenge Sen. Faki, through the Deputy Speaker, to call the NLC. I know that Meru, Embu and Nairobi counties also have challenges. In Nairobi City County, there are people who...

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to make my contributions on this Motion. I support the findings and the report that has been explained to us in a Motion well moved by the able Senator from Mombasa County. I support the fact that the true...
