  • 27 Feb 2019 in Senate: questioning things that are in budgets that we are part of, but did not play our role very well. view
  • 27 Feb 2019 in Senate: I have quite a bit but we will be looking and exercising oversight role at the execution and the control stages to ensure that some of these things that perhaps we did not get enough time to execute at the formulation and adoption stage, are keenly followed. We will then be sure that we have played our role. view

  • 26 Feb 2019 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is the Hon. Member in order to continue talking about Gov. Waiguru personal relationships? This is supposed to be a welcome, but it has now become Gov. Waiguru’s relationship with somebody else. This is what happens all the time to women when they are getting married. We miss the point by now talking about irrelevant things like that. view
  • 26 Feb 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the Statement by Sen. Wetangula about the DLP. I know the Senate Minority Leader, Sen.

Therefore, we need to know where the responsibility lies so that we know who to hold accountable. This is because we do ... view
  • 26 Feb 2019 in Senate: mooted but seven years down the line we have a totally different concept from what it was before. Whether it is given to the Committee on ICT or Committee on Education as Sen. Wetangula has requested, we need to know the cost of both the initial plan and new plan and who is supposed to drive it.
