• 24 Oct 2019 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we proposed that this House through its own procedures determines which departmental committee should summon the Governor and the County Assembly of Taita Taveta and go through the charges one by one and ensure that this particular issues that they were bringing are resolved so that the County Government of Taita Taveta can function because as it is, it is dysfunctional. You cannot be on the fifth month of a financial year without having agreed on a budget. Despite the fact that challenges exist in the other 46 counties, they have agreed on a budget. view
