• 2 Apr 2025 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am speaking on a related matter, not specific to a statement, but something that concerns me. As the Senate Majority Leader, I follow the work of committees, and see the kind of work that our committees have to put up with. I am increasingly getting concerned on the level of workload that we are giving to our committees with regards to statements. If you speak to chairpersons and members of the various committees, committees predominantly handle Bills that are before them, Petitions and Statements. I beg for your indulgence on this matter, so that perhaps, as ... view
• 2 Apr 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I want to appreciate the opportunity and the chance. I have a question for the Prime Cabinet Secretary. This is in regard to the State Department that is under him on the Bilateral Labour Agreements (BLA) that Kenya has signed in the last two years. Is the Prime Cabinet Secretary in a position to tell this House how many Bilateral Labour Agreements Kenya has signed in the last two years, how many are in the process and why there is seemingly a delay in conclusion of some of them that have been under negotiation for ... view
• 2 Apr 2025 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I do not like the through pass that I have been given. How can he say “On this one”, I thought I should inform him on everything? Anyway, the quick point I wanted to inform Sen. Cherarkey is that in 2016, when we were doing the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) Act, the one that currently guides the management of athletics and all these doping issues, I brought an amendment to this House, and argued very vigorously that the headquarters of that institution should not be here in Nairobi, but should be somewhere in the North Rift, ... view
• 2 Apr 2025 in Senate: Temporary Speaker, there are many reasons why as Majority Leader, I rise to say different things. Today, on this particular matter, allow me to celebrate Sen. Crystal Asige. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate. view
• 2 Apr 2025 in Senate: There have been many Senators that have been nominated to this House to represent persons with disability. You must first place context for people to understand why this is such a milestone. This Bill amends the Pearsons with Disability Act, 2003. We have had three Parliaments. This is the third Parliament since the coming into place of the new Constitution and with all the challenges that persons who are gifted differently face in this country, it has not been possible to get somebody to put in the hard work like Sen. Crystal Asige has, to ensure that this Bill becomes ... view
• 2 Apr 2025 in Senate: was part of the charter that we signed with persons living with disability at the UDA Party. For this to have come to pass today is something worth celebrating. Therefore, Sen. Crystal Asige, this alongside the other one that I challenged you, where I know you have already concluded in Senate; the nominations of persons living with disability into our county assemblies and it is presently before the National Assembly. You conclude those two legislative proposals and ensure they become law, you will have permanently sealed your place and the ODM party will celebrate you and say that we nominated ... view
• 1 Apr 2025 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to lay the following Paper on the Table of the Senate, today, 1st April, 2025. This is the Auditor-General's Summary Report on the County Governments for Financial Year 2023/2024. I thank you. view
• 1 Apr 2025 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to report that the Committee of the Whole has considered the County Governments Additional Allocation Bill (Senate Bill No.1 of 2025) and its approval thereof with amendments. view
• 1 Apr 2025 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I want to comment quickly on two issues. One is the issue of Nyamira. It is not possible to have two county assemblies, Sen. Omogeni, without the support of two offices. One is the office of the governor, and two, the office of the CoB. Those are the two most critical offices in any devolution system. The CoB must apprise this House on which request for funding to our county assemblies. Which of the two functions is she funding, and based on what? Based on that decision, then that is a legitimate county assembly. view
• 1 Apr 2025 in Senate: Two, I know that the gazetted county assembly was, I think broken down into and either locked up. Perhaps you may better furnish this House with information. view
