• 5 Nov 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in terms of the East African Community (EAC) Monetary Unit Protocol, these are treaties that we have signed as a country. It is view

• 5 Nov 2019 in Senate: unfortunate that despite the fact that we are signed on to keeping our borrowing at 50 per cent of net present value, already even as it stands today, we have passed that ceiling. The reason why the EAC has never successfully integrated is because of our behaviour as Kenyans. Each time we go to Arusha, we set up beautiful meetings where EAC Heads of States sign protocols, but we come back to Kenya and believe that somehow we can only follow those rules in so far as it favours us, as a country. However, at a particular time, when we ... view
• 5 Nov 2019 in Senate: That is okay. view
• 5 Nov 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you know very well that in matters to do with law, you either comply fully or you do not comply. You cannot appear before a judge and argue that: “Because I have followed all the other nine laws, permit me to break this particular law.” If Kenya is serious and if, indeed, we are the big brother as Sen.

Rather, what they do is that they fund specific projects like the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR), a particular road or factory. That is the kind of business that they are in. However, they are not in the business of buying off bad debts from people who cannot manage their economies like Kenya. T view
• 5 Nov 2019 in Senate: No, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I would wish to hear from the teacher who misled Sen. Murkomen. view
• 5 Nov 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for disowning your student. The point that I was making in concluding is that, the thing that multilateral lenders would do is to fund specific projects.
