Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance. I want to address the issue of our partnership with the KLM. We have been told that the management said it is being reviewed. When will this review be done? This is a statement that has been mentioned for so long yet we know that one of the main reasons why the Kenya Airways continue to lose money is because of the skewed partnership that it has with the KLM. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think the reason why we need to seek more clarity on this matter is that it will unravel one of the mysteries which has baffledSenators for quite a long time. The mystery is, how governors manage to find a “bypass”. We all understand that a county treasury is organised in such a way that before any funds are drawn, they are committed through a budgeting process. Any time there is expenditure, it is from a particular vote. For a long time, we have been wondering how governors manage to get through this, likely on paper, ...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance. I rise to contribute in support of the Speech made by His Excellency the President to the two Houses of Parliament. I want to address some of the issues that are worth noting, especially as a young legislator and someone who is still new in the House. There are some things that I observed on that day that bother me to this day. As political leaders, we should be careful in the way we carry ourselves and behave. We have supporters who draw their actions in society from what ...

Thank you Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for this chance. I rise to support this Motion of Adjournment. In the interest of time, I do not think I will be able to give out all my thoughts but I just want to laud the efforts of my colleague, Sen. M. Kajwang, who despite playing from a separate team from mine, has said that he looks forward to walking to the Chamber tomorrow to listen to the President as the Head of State. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it is a great statement and it speaks more of the kind of leadership that ...

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this Bill. It gives me great pleasure because having come from an election recently, I have witnessed first-hand the kind of challenges the deputy governors experience. It is our principal duty as the custodians of devolution to ensure that for any emerging challenges, we come up with Bills like this. They will provide an answer to the challenges experienced daily. If for no other reason other than the fact that a deputy governor is elected alongside the governor and they earn a salary for this and considering the much they ...

Sorry, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Let me take this chance to appreciate the students from Mogotio for visiting the Senate. It is a good House. I hope as the youngest Senator in the House, my presence serves as a motivation to you as you pursue your studies to know that your dreams are valid, no matter where you come from. Kenya is a great country. Be inspired, work hard, and one day, I hope to meet some of you here if we will be here that time.

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir for giving me the chance to contribute. I rise to support this Motion for two main reasons. While I may not have the benefits of parliamentary history that my senior colleagues have, and it was evident in the contribution. As I speak and address some sense to this Motion, I want to support in full cognizant of the fact that a President elected to lead a nation such as Kenya serves a great responsibility. When such a request comes to the House that he wants to address Parliamentarians, I want to believe that he ...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me the chance to contribute to this important Bill. Before I do that, allow me to first of all thank the people of Kericho for granting me the opportunity to be one of the Members in this distinguished House. It gives me great pleasure. The people of Kericho County, just like the rest of the other 46 counties, when presented with the opportunity to select a man or woman who would be the custodian of one of the best things ever to have happen to them, which is devolution, saw it in ...
