• 19 Sep 2024 in Senate: Today, as I speak, most counties are yet to receive their allocations and the justification is that we have not passed the DORA and the CARA. We are aware these issues because we all live in Kenya. While that is the case, the national Government continues to function, They are able to access their funds because the National Assembly passed the Appropriation Bill. They have amended and passed a further supplementary budget if I am not wrong although I could be wrong. I hope we can set a mechanism through which we ensure that in all instances such as these, ... view
• 19 Sep 2024 in Senate: our markets, collecting Kshs20 and Kshs50 from our mama mbogas and bodaboda operators. However, that money never makes its way to the county revenue tills. We have a Bill before this House that will ensure we put systems in place that are tamper-proof. It was Sen. Cherarkey who once told us of a T-junction that some governors put in some of these systems, such that, even when you think that they have collected electronically, there is a leak somewhere. There is a tap you can open and it is accessible through a back channel. That is why there is a ... view

• 18 Sep 2024 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I keep telling my friend, Sen. Sifuna, that if he wants to become a good legislator, he must not conflate issues. The point he is raising is something that all of us on this side agree with. I have been on this Floor several times coming down heavily against Cabinet Secretaries when they failed to appear before this House. However, when he wants to leave it on record that hon. John Mbadi has become a proper Kenya Kwanza Cabinet Secretary who has no respect for Parliament, I cannot allow him to do that. This is because ... view
• 18 Sep 2024 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you know I was willing to allow these cheap shots to pass but you have heard Sen. Wambua repeatedly refer to me in his statement, saying that I am defending the indefensible yet, I pointed out to Sen. Sifuna that what better evidence did he need that Kenya Kwanza Cabinet Secretaries respect this House other than the fact that while he was making his complaint, there was a Cabinet Minister seated here. Therefore, he cannot generalize. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if you can protect me from the hecklers, I can make my point. view
• 18 Sep 2024 in Senate: What they are doing is heckling. It is not a statement of fact that what Sen. Wambua and Sen. Edwin Sifuna are stating 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
• 18 Sep 2024 in Senate: that Kenya Kwanza Cabinet Secretaries do not honor summons to this House. I have demonstrated that there is one in the House this morning. Therefore, if one Cabinet Secretary fails to appear, is it a statement of fact that Sen. Wambua is stating that Kenya Kwanza Cabinet Secretaries do not honor summons to this House? Almost every Cabinet Secretary has come to this House more than 100 times and, first of all, the Minority side begun by boycotting this exercise. They never used to appear. Probably that is why they do not know that Cabinet Secretaries have been coming to ... view
• 18 Sep 2024 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do not mind welcoming the students from Olbutyo; if I got the name correct. I can see them nodding. I know where Olbutyo is. Sen. Sigei was in the House earlier so he must be somewhere within the precincts of Parliament. On his behalf, I welcome the visiting students together with their teachers. I hope they will enjoy their tour of Parliament, enjoy the debate and see us in action. view
