• 14 Feb 2023 in Senate: time to get down to business and ensure that we do things that are beneficial to our country. view
• 14 Feb 2023 in Senate: I urge Members to participate and sit in their committees. I will be quick to note that there are many committees and each one of us is a Member of the various committees that have Bills being transacted at various stages. view
• 14 Feb 2023 in Senate: If this Moton is successfully carried, we shall be transacting business and requesting for Bills to be debated. We expect that by the time we come to debate any particular Bill, we shall transact business without having a report of the committee unless there is very good reason. It will take the convincing of the whole House to know why they are being asked to process and move forward with a particular Bill without a Committee concluding its report. view
• 14 Feb 2023 in Senate: There is a lot of work. This is the month of February. We are handling the Budget Policy Statement (BPS) in various committees with Members and stakeholders coming to present before the various committees on the various budget ceilings and proposals.

Most committees will exhaust their foreign travel budget, leaving a surplus in their local travel budget. What does that say? They say that we only speak about Marsabit, Isiolo, Lamu. Kisumu, Kericho and the various parts of the country in this House. view

While you cannot get lost, for example, in New York, you would struggle to find your way to Rumuruti from Nanyuki town. That cannot be excused. Let us find meaning in traversing this country, listening to the needs of our citizens, engaging them where they can easily be found, which is back in mashinani as various committees. I said this during the induction and I repeat the same to our colleagues. view
• 14 Feb 2023 in Senate: We are Parliament. People respect us. When we speak, Kenya listens. It cannot be that Kenyans continue to complain about various issues without the Committees of Parliament responding to them. This is the time to summon the various Cabinet Secretaries (CS) and take them to task. Let them file a plan before this House and explain to us up to when Kenyans will continue paying high costs for electricity bills and the various promises.
