Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale What do they want?

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I would like to appreciate the initiative by the Nominated Senator, Sen. Nabwire and Sen. Catherine Mumma. They are the only leaders from our community who have woken up to the reality of what is going on in Ikolomani. With maximum respect,...

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I again celebrate my younger brother for defending himself and setting the record clear. Why are 8,000 to 10,000 people being moved to nowhere? The leaders are quiet, apart from Sen. Catherine, Sen. Consolata, and yours truly. Secondly, the administration; the national...

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale By extension, the entire Randa Corridor shall not move. We will only move if we are the ones mining. We have not said we cannot mine. We will only move if our stake is not limited to five per cent. Five per cent of our own gold,...

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you for that one minute that you have given me. In conclusion, we will not move from Kakamega for whatever reason other than mining that gold ourselves. We shall mine it. If I do not, my children will. If they do not, my...

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Yes. The Speaker (Hon. Kingi) : Proceed, Senator for Nandi County.

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Mr. Speaker, Sir, we should always plead with colleagues that if they must inform a Member, they inform them something they do not know. Before you came here, we enacted the law you are talking about. So, I know what I am talking about.

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Yes, it is useful, but he should not give the impression that Sen. Boni Khalwale does not know the law.

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Let me help him because it seems he does not know the law. Allow me to inform him now, it is five per cent to the community, 10 per cent to the county government, 20 per cent to the national Government and the balance disappears with the...

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. We do not understand why there is all this power rationing. Western Kenya tends to be the biggest casualty. What is the reason? You are well-placed to tell us, because fortunately for us, you also come from Western Kenya. By that I...

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale This matter does not invite the Speaker to rule. It is a matter that requires the entire Secretariat of Parliament and specifically the Senate, to reflect on and advise the SBC. Sometimes, when the Governor of Kakamega is appearing before CPIC and CPAC, I sit there and...

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise under Standing Order No.105. Did you hear the Senate Majority Leader announce that he is being denied an opportunity to go on maternity leave? Could he prove that he is pregnant? Mr. Speaker, Sir, laymen are shouting and they do not know...
