• 18 Jul 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you understand the unique nature in which we have dealt with this Motion; that there are few Members who have not spoken to it and we have been granting them an opportunity as leadership still consults on the final recommendations. I suspect that there may be Members in the House who are willing and have not had an opportunity to speak, save for Sen. Kinyua, who will move the amendments. If there are any such Members, then I humbly request that you allow them to contribute, then we still suspend the Motion until we conclude now as ... view
• 18 Jul 2024 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, when this Motion first came to this House, the people of Nyandarua County had sent a very serious man here; Eng. Muriuki Karue. I do not want to say more about the choices they have made since then. Madam Temporary Speaker, I rise to support this very important Motion. One of the very insightful decisions that the Senate has made over the years in the course of our duty as representatives to county governments and their interests, is to bequeath the people of Isiolo, Lamu, Nyandarua, Tana River and Tharaka-Nithi, with county headquarters. It was a wise ... view
• 18 Jul 2024 in Senate: besides setting aside funds for our own use as a people, we had also agreed to set out Kshs600 million plus to five counties to build their county headquarters. I am glad that wisdom prevailed that afternoon and since then, these counties have gone on to put up headquarters. It is unfortunate though that years later, we are here back with a report and we are yet to reap the fruits of that particular decision. Unknown to many, this decision was quite Solomonic. This was the first Conditional Grant. It is after this decision that subsequently, the Senate introduced the ... view
• 18 Jul 2024 in Senate: charges to the Exchequer, by the various State Departments and Ministries, just like these county governments, is the hiring of offices. All these new buildings that you see coming up all over Upper Hill, are not occupied by the private sector. Ninety per cent of floors are taken by different State Departments, yet they are empty buildings that the Government has built. On Bunyala Road, there is a building that has been an eyesore for close to 20 years, as long as I can remember being an adult in this City. I think it is by the Kenya Industrial Research ... view
• 18 Jul 2024 in Senate: particular person? It is unfortunate. We need to make a decision as a country, suspending the introduction of new projects until first, you complete. Many times, we speak about this and people do not appreciate or understand that there is little difference in terms of deriving value out of public projects from what you do privately. If today, of the resources that you administer at a personal level, you have projects littered all over parts of the country where you have interest, and none of is complete, are you a prudent administrator of your own resources? I thought common wisdom ... view
• 18 Jul 2024 in Senate: county governments work because that is one of the gifts that we have given ourselves over the many progressive things that we have done as a country in the last 60 years, and we cannot afford it to go to waste. Therefore, I believe that even as we do the resolution on the reflection Motion that is before this House, there must be a line about what each of us is supposed to do in our specific counties. There is need for a special audit, separate from the things that are being done here at the national level, so that ... view
