• 14 Nov 2024 in Senate: This Bill is replacing Chapter 106 of the Public Collections Act whose institutional architecture does not align with the devolved structures of the Kenyan Constitution and is not sufficiently robust to address corruption tendencies associated with public fundraising appeals. Further, the Public Collections Act excludes from its purview charitable and religious purposes, yet this forms a large component of harambees. Being specific to the point that I made, nobody is stopping fundraisers. They will be allowed. How they are conducted is the question at hand, especially the conduct of state and public officers like you and I. What is limit ... view
• 14 Nov 2024 in Senate: No, it does not mean that that is a case for everybody. Do not be too sure that what made them elect you in the last election is what they will consider in electing you in the coming election. It is good because you are hopeful. However, having more experience than you, I can tell you that every new election has new challenges.

Beatrice, Kenyans will not look at us and say that we promised them that we will do, but when things were hot in the country, we never tried. I would rather let it be known that the Senate of Kenya presented the opportunity and chose how ... view
• 13 Nov 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it would be remiss of me if I do not recognize the comrades from Kisii University. Therefore, I join the Senator for Kisii County in welcoming them to this august House. I hope they will drink to their fill and enjoy all that they came to find out when they set out from Kisii to come to this House. Second and equally importantly, is to appreciate the delegation from Tana River County: the MCAs. The collaboration between county assemblies and the Senate is at the heart of success of devolution. Each time we have a delegation from ... view
• 13 Nov 2024 in Senate: I know that by the time they leave this House, they will have learnt a lot that they can implement in their county assembly which will help us to enshrine and celebrate devolution. Their Senator, Sen. Danson Mungatana, is not here, but they know that this House elected him to be a member of the Pan-African Parliament. He, therefore, juggles his duties between Nairobi and South Africa where the continental Parliament sits. One thing about Tana River is that it is a very special county to those of us that are members of the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party. That ... view
