Thank you Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wanted to suggest, with the concurrence of the Senator, a better way of dealing with this because we have dealt with it before and like he said, we have not brought a very comprehensive answer. I want to suggest a meeting where we will get...

So, you will endevour to give us an answer tomorrow then we can see how best we will proceed from there. Hon. Senators, before we proceed to the next order, I have another short Communication to make regarding our students. VISITING DELEGATION OF STUDENTS FROM NKUENE GIRLS HIGH SCHOOL, MERU...

Sen. (Prof.) Anyang’ Nyong’o Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Petition from the people of Kajiado County. When we developed the Vision 2030, it was called a “globally competitive and prosperous Kenya”. One of the pillars of Vision 2030 in Chapter Two of that vision was the foundation...

Sen. (Prof.) Anyang’ Nyong’o Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I stand guided. I will definitely honour your directions.

Sen. (Prof.) Anyang’ Nyong’o Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I would like to add my voice in congratulating my Chairman, Sen. Billow, a man of substantial integrity. I am sure, as Sen. Billow is sitting there, he is wondering whether we mean the words we are saying here. Usually, you...

Sen. (Prof.) Anyang’ Nyong’o Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity. I have only two points to make. Missing in the Communication was the victories we have had in the courts over some very crucial laws that were passed. That is an important addition to our achievement...

Sen. (Prof.) Anyang’ Nyong’o Thank you Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I would like to hail the people of Busia who are very patriotic and have made a resolve to sort out their problems. Our Committee – I must say that we are the majority in the Chamber this afternoon –...

Sen. (Prof.) Anyang’ Nyong’o Okay, fine! I emphasize that a Senator sitting in the Chair is not the one that I am talking about. However, I know I shall get another occasion to speak equally positively about him in another forum on another issue. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I ask...

Sen. (Prof.) Anyang’ Nyong’o Mr. Speaker Sir, Is it in order for Sen. Kiraitu to assume that the word ‘mzungumzishi’ is a type of mzungu? (Laughter)

Sen. (Prof.) Nyong’o Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to raise a much wider issue, regarding what we are doing in the Committee on Finance, Commerce and Budget and the County Public Accounts and Investments Committee (CPAIC) . The English saying that “seeing is believing” is very important. When we are...

Sen. (Prof) Anyang’ Nyong’o Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am sure you did not hear this but to the best of my knowledge, there are only three languages that are allowed in this Chamber, that is, English, Swahili and the Kenyan Sign Language. Did you hear my good professor, my...
