• 31 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I share in the concerns of the Senate Minority Leader. There is an increasing trend where certain CSs have set a precedence to never show up in this House no matter how serious the matter that we are canvassing is. For the record, the CS in charge of this particular matter, if I am not misled, is one such person. This is because he has not shown up before our Committee on a number of occasions. Therefore, it would be important, as the invitations are sent to the Ministry inviting them to this meeting, to share the ... view
• 31 Jul 2019 in Senate: I wish the Senate Majority and Minority leaders had followed through with a request that I once made in this House. Given the importance of the issue of the census, we needed an ad hoc Committee of this House to provide oversight from planning and implementation phase to relaying of the results of the census. However, now that it did not happen, this is our only opportunity to interact with them. Using both your soft and hard powers, ensure that we have this CS before this House on that day. view

• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to support the Statement that has been brought to the fore by our colleague, Sen. Seneta. Kenyans are looking up to us, as the Houses of Parliament. When such grave issues about their safety are put to the kind of test that we have observed in the last few weeks, it is so embarrassing. It is a shame that as a House, we have not considered ways of solving this issue. It is two weeks since the issue was aired and none of the Houses of Parliament has addressed it specifically us in the ... view
• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is a very important issue. I personally agree with my colleagues that IFMIS aids devolution in terms of accountability. The Statement by Sen. Dullo highlights some of the challenges which the national Government has been unable to address. The truth is that if you speak to some of our colleagues who work in the county governments, they will tell you that the national Government continues to run the counties through the IFMIS. The national Government decides when you can procure, pay people and so on. That is so unfortunate. As the Members of the Committee on ... view
• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker Sir. I would like to formally withdraw this particular Bill having consulted with my co-sponsor; Sen. (Dr.) Mwaura. We had a discussion with the Committee and felt that there are certain things that we first needed to clear bearing in mind that the Committee was working on a Bill that is almost similar to this Bill. Therefore, I formally withdraw it. view
• 18 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me a chance to also register my support to this Statement by my colleague, Sen. (Prof.) Kamar. It is about a very poignant issue in our country at this point in time. We are discussing something that we ought not to because we cannot consider ourselves to be a dignified society if we cannot comfortably feed our people. All these conferences we keep on having in Kenya--- Yesterday, I saw the gathering of Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA view
