• 7 Mar 2024 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to move that the Water (Amendment) Bill (National Assembly Bill N0.33 of 2023) be now read a Third Time. I call upon Sen. Orwoba to second. view
• 7 Mar 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I beg to move that the Affordable Housing Bill (National Assembly Bills No.75 of 2023) be now read a Second Time. As the Senate Majority Leader, I have had the opportunity to lead the session in moving many Government Bills. However, this is one that seats in a pedestal of great pride doing this great task this afternoon. This is a single Government policy in the present administration’s manifestations, otherwise known as the plan, that I strongly believe in. It has the power to transform our country from a country that is dogged with poverty, ... view

• 7 Mar 2024 in Senate: institution, are telling us to do as Parliament. That every Kenyan, including the ordinary citizens, those that they sometimes purport to represent in petitions, must pay this particular levy. It was the general thinking of many of us given the fact that we live in an almost a quasi-socially state. Any adult who lives in this country and has gone through public education, has been educated through the taxes of other Kenyans; all of us in this House, including the members of staff. The reason why we have formal education is that in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s when we ... view

• 7 Mar 2024 in Senate: have slums in every part of this country. There is no county that you can think of that does not have a slum today. This is because of lack of planning. There is a need for housing within urban centres, yet there is no supply. The market has failed to supply good, decent and affordable houses. People do not live in the informal settlements in the Mukuru and Kibra for the like of it. They would wish to live in houses with good toilets and warm showers, but those houses are not affordable or available. That is why this programme ... view
• 7 Mar 2024 in Senate: On a point of order. While I could allow other Senators to get away with certain things and insults that have been traded this evening, I do not think I can allow the Senior Counsel. He is an elder of the Seventh Day Adventist Church, a Senior Counsel and a respected Member of this House. He knows very well that you cannot have it on record that you accuse another colleague of cheating. That is unparliamentary. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, can you request the Senator of Nyamira to either withdraw or apologise. This is not even a case for substantiation ... view
• 7 Mar 2024 in Senate: Yes. view
• 7 Mar 2024 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I thank all colleagues who have taken time to speak to this Bill, either in support or opposing it. In their thoughts, we have bettered a good idea. I appreciate all those who have taken time to read through the Bill, have informed debate and spoken passionately about the reason they feel this is a good idea for Kenyans. I said earlier in my moving notes that while I have moved many Bills before, it gives me tremendous pleasure. This has been a great honour to move a Bill that I know will change the lives ... view
