• 4 Dec 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I want to thank Hon. Mboni, one of the serious Members of the Committee on Finance and National Planning. Hon. Atandi is here. I second the Report of the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning on the vetting for approval of the nominee for the position of Controller of Budget.

• 4 Dec 2019 in National Assembly: You have to go for a competitive interview, qualify and win. The President, in the best of his knowledge, sends a name here, but you cannot say we were under a tree and we were promised this seat. Who promised you?

• 4 Dec 2019 in National Assembly: We want the Controller of Budget to ensure that the figures she presents to Parliament, either on the national Government, county government or Parliament are convincing and true. I recall in 2018 where the Controller of Budget had indicated that the accumulated pending bills for counties was Kshs108 billion, but the Auditor-General conflicted this and said that the genuine pending bills that the Government could pay was Kshs51 billion. These are two independent offices answerable to Parliament and dealing with figures, but giving conflicting information. This is a serious discrepancy. What about the people who are owed Kshs49 billion view
