• 27 Mar 2024 in Senate: Listening to the answers, if the Cabinet Secretary can commit and assure us that the plans, as he has laid out this afternoon before the House, will be delivered then we are in a good place. I appreciate what they are doing as a team at the Ministry. I have one Question: When the Cabinet Secretary was responding, he mentioned the desire by the Government to move to 100 percent green energy by the year 2030 and the plans that that entails. Previously, in my life in this House, I served as a Member of the Energy Committee. I am ... view
• 27 Mar 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I beg to Move that the Conflict-of-Interest Bill, 2023 (National Assembly Bills No.12 of 2023) be now read a Second Time. The Conflict of Interest Bill, 2023 (National Assembly Bills No.12 of 2023), was published by the Kenya Gazette, No.41 of 2023. Our colleagues in the National Assembly considered this Bill and sometime in November last year, they passed and referred it to the Senate for consideration. At the time of referring this Bill, we had just proceeded on recess. Having come back, I feel that it is time that we consider this Bill. ... view
• 27 Mar 2024 in Senate: the conflict of interest. This where public officials and state officers take advantage of their position to enhance their own personal interest as opposed to public interest. If you do not curb this vice, I am afraid you may not have a country to write about in the next few years to come. Therefore, I urge colleagues, that you take time, listen and debate this Bill with all the energy and vigour that you can summon. If you live in a country where industry pays less than politics, then you know that there is a problem. In a country where ... view
• 27 Mar 2024 in Senate: collision course with public interest. All these issues are defined in Clauses 8 to 29, so that a public official will not come back and say, I did not know that this was wrong, including the Members of Parliament. As you debate on a Bill, you are duty-bound to make declaration of interest on this Floor. The same is provided for in our Standing Orders, but now it will be provided in statute. This will enable one to say: “On this matter, I am afraid I may not provide the best of judgment because I know this client or company. ... view

• 26 Mar 2024 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I agree with Sen. Mandago that Sen. Cherarkey must withdraw and apologize to religious leaders for making the assumption that pastors are academic dwarfs. It is not accurate. My own church, the AGC, Kenya is led by a bishop who is no less than a Phd holder; a very revered academic. Even the chairperson of Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) - just to help Sen. Cherarkey appreciate that many of our pastors are well educated - Dr. Oginde, is an architect by training, who further went on to later study theology. He is now the Chairperson ... view
• 26 Mar 2024 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, under Standing Order No.105, Sen. Wambua knows that as you go on record you need to be factual on statements. We have all followed this fake fertiliser scandal or whatever you want to call it. However, up to now Sen. Wambua, I do not think there has been any clarification or confirmation that a farmer went to the NCPB stores and bought fake fertiliser. The fake fertiliser that is in distribution - and gathering from all the stories I have watched, so far - is from people tricking farmers by selling them bags on the side ... view
• 26 Mar 2024 in Senate: I thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I rise to second the Sugar Bill (National Assembly Bills No. 34 of 2022). This is an extremely important Bill, touching on an industry that has been long neglected over the years. It has the opportunity to give livelihoods to millions of Kenyans and save our country billions of shillings that we spend importing sugar from other countries that have organized their sector better than us, making their farmers earn while ours continue to wallow in poverty. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of ... view
