• 6 Apr 2022 in National Assembly: I am a Member of PAC. I am sure the Clerk will help you. The substantive Speaker gave a Communication from the Chair on how forensic audit can be sought by Parliament, mainly through PAC and PIC. If you read the Communication of the Speaker, Hon. Muturi, it is only PAC or PIC that has the mandate to, on behalf of the House, write to the Auditor-General on any matter that concerns audit. This is an audit issue. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I am a ranking Member. I did my homework well. I even read Hon. Speaker’s Communication from the Chair. ... view

• 10 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. As I support this Petition, let me go on record and seek your guidance. In September last year, there was a huge outcry on the sky rocketing of the petroleum product prices. This House in its wisdom acted very fast. I remember that the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning, chaired by Hon. Gladys Wanga, brought the Petroleum Products (Taxes and Levies) (Amendment) Bill which was read the First Time in October 2021. The Committee has tabled its Report. This Bill is supposed to cure what Mr. Mutoro, the Secretary General of COFEK, a ... view
