Susan Wakarura Kihika

Sen. Kihika Madam Temporary Speaker, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.48 (1) to seek for a Statement from the Standing Committee on National Security, Defense and Foreign Relations regarding the fatal shooting of Mr. Simon Thuku by officers from the Kenya Coast Guard Services (KCGS) in Karagita area, Naivasha...

Sen. Kihika

Sen. Kihika Madam Deputy Speaker, let me also congratulate Sen. Cherargei for bringing this Statement, which is extremely timely given that agriculture is the backbone of this country. Talking on behalf of my county, the main thing that most people do is farming. Over the years, prices of fertilisers have...

Sen. Kihika Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I rise to second this Motion as Member of the Standing Committee on Labour and Social Welfare, and one of the Members who travelled to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.) back in April. We saw firsthand...

Sen. Kihika Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I rise to first congratulate-- -

Sen. Kihika Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I also rise to support this Statement by Sen. Kinyua of Laikipia County, who happens to be the Senator for my mother. Therefore, it is a very important Statement. That is on a light note. I see there is a disturbed Senator there,...

Sen. Kihika Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. It is quite obvious that we have been or recess and the Senators have not had an opportunity to speak. It is obvious that they are back and energized. On a serious note, I begin by eulogising my former Colleague, Sen. Prengei,...

Sen. Kihika Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to contribute to this important Motion that is about my wonderful, beautiful County of Nakuru. I am conflicted, this afternoon, just like my colleagues who have spoken this afternoon. Looking at the bigger picture, Nakuru deserves to be a city just...

Sen. Kihika Mr. Speaker, Sir, on behalf of the people of Nakuru County, cognizant of how badly the economy of Kenya is doing at the moment; knowing that the people of Kenya have been sold a lie and knowing that the people of Nakuru County elected me to stand for...

Sen. Kihika Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am about to vote. However, I need to make a few remarks. Despite the fact that my people have been sold a lie, I owe them the truth. I do not want the over 2.1 million people of Nakuru County to be misled. As...

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

Sen. Kihika Mr. Speaker, Sir, I do not know how we are going to have this sitting properly because there are several Members online who would like to take part in the proceedings, but the system is faulty. The biggest concern that I would like addressed before we proceed is...

Sen. Kihika Sen. Kihika, if you came in at 10.00

Sen. Kihika Your time is up.

Sen. KihikaMr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we have heard musical and poetic justifications of why the country is pregnant with a constitutional moment. I call it bullshit. We do not have a constitutional moment in our hands. When someone tells us that the Constitution of the USA was amended 27 times,...

Samahani, Sen. Kihika. Hiyo Sen. KihikaNow, we can lie to ourselves and say that enough women will be elected so that those elected in the single constituency seats will participate in that. However, my question is that, is it guaranteed? At least the 47 are guaranteed. What we shall have...

Asante kwa mchango wako, Sen. Kihika, kutoka Kaunti ya Nakuru. Sen. Seneta, chukua nafasi yako kupitia mtandaoni.

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, for giving me a chance to also add my voice to this important Bill. From the outset, I want to go on record and say the Bill is important but it is not a priority for Kenyans.

Samahani, Sen. Seneta. Uko na dakika 13. Pia ninataka kutoa uamuzi kutoka Kipengele cha 106 kwamba, kwa sababu tuko na Maseneta watatu ambao wemasalia, basi tutamaliza huu mjadala leo. Kwa hivyo, Mwenyekiti wa Kamati ya Seneti Zima, kuwa chonjo. Sen. Seneta, unaweza kuendelea.

Sen. Kihika Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have spoken with Sen. Linturi as the Government apologist continued talking and he is still under arrest. He is still in custody. The Senate Minority Leader (Sen. Orengo) : Mr. Speaker, Sir, this matter --- (Loud Consultations)
