Keynan Wehliye Adan

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I interacted with Hon. Dalmas as a businessman under the BT group of companies, as a Minister, as a Member of Parliament and finally, as a Commissioner with the SRC. From the first interaction, you would notice that he was a genius. If you had a...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to join Kenyans in commending the great men and women athletes for flying our flag very high in the international arena. Sports play a very important role in promoting tourism and diplomacy and creating national pride. It is high time that we also commended...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, from the outset, allow me to congratulate the Committee for bringing this great Report. Having once chaired this former giant committee called the PIC and having gone through this Report, I now realise why it was important to split the Committee into sector‑based committees. During my tenure...

They have not come in yet. I am told they are in the next lot, but there is no harm in welcoming these ones. Go ahead. You have one minute. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The next group will consist of Eldas Girls Secondary School. I have seen students from Fafi...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The LAPSSET Corridor Project is supposed to be a regional flagship project intended to provide transport and logistics infrastructure aimed at creating a seamless connectivity between the East African countries. We all understand that. The Government of Kenya deliberately decided to construct another port in Lamu....

Hon. Speaker, having worked in Parliament under the old Constitution, Hon. Kamket remembers when we used to have the government question time; when questions would be filed on the Floor of the House and we would deal with substantive officeholders. What he is imagining now is how we can get...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I thank Hon. Saney for bringing the request for statement. Mr Hussein Abdirahman, who is also nicknamed ‘Hussein Moi’, is the Manager of the Wajir Huduma Centre, a very senior officer. It has been almost a month and the line Ministry and all other concerned individuals...

Hon. Speaker, I had also requested for a statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Blue Economy and Irrigation on 9th April… On the 9th? Yes! April this year. It has been quite some time. This was a very important issue regarding the status of the water and...

I second.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. This is a very critical Committee. As the former Chairperson, I recall that when the framers of the current Standing Orders, such as the late Hon. Anyona, Hon. James Aggrey Orengo, and Governor Anyang' Nyong'o crafted them, they were among the first in the region...

Can I have two more minutes? Hon. Adan Keynan, you are negotiating before your time has even lapsed. Wind up in two minutes. Some of the gaps that we found relate to the audit timeline. It takes too long before the Committee is seized of the audit report. This duration...

Thank you very much, Hon Speaker. The Order Paper was a bit misleading. It talked of Tuesday. Hon Speaker, I wish to request for a statement … An apology is desirable. When I called you out, you were not here. Thank you, Hon Speaker. I would like to request for...

Hon. Speaker, I know from where you sit you must be very dissatisfied with this answer. This answer is half a paragraph. The Hon. Speaker is not a participant. I am sure the Hon. Speaker is also a human being and as a person who has used that road in...

Hon. Speaker, can the Chairman assure the House that this road will be tarmacked before the end of the current term? Hon. Chairman, you should take into account that you lead a very important Committee. Can you also assure the House that planning will be fast-tracked so it does not...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, this is a House of traditions.

On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker.

I also sought a number of Statements. I can see the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Blue Economy, Water and Irrigation here. I sought a Statement about two months ago. I do not see it listed here. I also sought a Statement from the Chairman of the Departmental Committee...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. At the outset, allow me to thank Hon. (Eng.) Muriuki Karue, the father of NG-CDF, for reflecting on the dynamics of Kenyan politics, immediately after independence, after the advent of multiparty, and before the promulgation of the current Constitution. For those of us who were...
