Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale On a point of order. The Speaker (Hon. Kingi) What is your point of order? What is so disorderly about Sen. Sifuna? Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Mr. Speaker, Sir, under Standing Order No.105, the Senator of Nairobi City is referring to a document called MoU. That document has...

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this Motion and I cannot help noting the fact that we have come a long way. I remember when I came to this Parliament in the year 2002, the total revenue collection by Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) was...

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, to guide the House, it is our tradition, custom and practice in accordance with Standing Order No.1 (2) that if a Member must discharge the responsibility of another Member, he should submit to the Speaker a written consent from the said Member whom...

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir.

Sen. (Dr) Khalwale(Applause) December 4, 2025 SENATE DEBATES 20 Sen. (Dr) Khalwale statement that speaks to the role of the police. The police in Kenya seem to be serving private individuals, like the crooks who took these 130 head of cattle as if the matter is supposed to be countrywide....

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale(Loud consultations) December 4, 2025 SENATE DEBATES 21 Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale of Ikolomani in defending their national resource. Kshs687 billion is far too much money for us to allow tomcats from Nairobi supporting foreigners to take over. We will not cave in.

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale So what have you informed him? What are you informing him?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wanted to comment on the statement by Sen. Nyutu regarding the plight of ECDE teachers from Murang'a County. (Loud consultations)

Sen. Wambua, please proceed.

Hon. Senators, kindly arise. This session is suspended for one hour. We shall, therefore, come back here at exactly 7.30 p.m. (The Senate adjourned temporarily at 6.30 p.m.) (The Senate resumed at 7.40 p.m.)

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale(Loud consultations)

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwalemean? You all know that in this House, we have been voting with the threshold of 24, even when our brother, the late Cheptumo was gone.Now, with what has been brought by the County Assembly, they are telling us, please, remember there were three MCAs who are not...

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Hon. Senators, kindly arise. This session is suspended for one hour. We shall, therefore, come back here at exactly 7.30 p.m. (The Senate adjourned temporarily at 6.30 p.m.) (The Senate resumed at 7.40 p.m.)

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Mr. Speaker, I am convinced by what the Counsel for the Governor, Mutuma, has said; that, you cannot find voting by proxy anywhere in the Standing Orders of the County Assembly or anywhere else yet, this is going to guide us to decide on your preliminary objection,...

Sen. (Dr) Khalwale Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am glad that you have paused the intention to put the question. Anything touching on devolution, specifically issues of funding, speaks to the core business of this House. I want to thank you for this opportunity and also to second the...

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

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 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 What do they want?

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

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 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 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 see no evidence that I am unable to substantiate. If such evidence is there, let it be adduced. I am very serious. We are not going breach provision of the Constitution just because of a smaller provision that could be found in a...

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Thank you so much for the indulgence. I can assure you, I have said I have chosen to keep quiet for the reason that Kenyans died to have freedom of expression and speech. Please, understand these things. We were there before you were.
