• 7 Mar 2024 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, ni jibu ama niendelee.? view
• 7 Mar 2024 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, Kenyans are being taxed for the affordable houses to be built. Why then are the houses being sold to the same Kenyans who the houses are being built for? Where is this money they are paying going to? That is another reason I am opposing this Bill. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the majority can have their way, but the minority have their say. We know we cannot oppose it because you will pass it as you are the majority, but let us have our say. view
• 7 Mar 2024 in Senate: Give us time to have our say, so that our people can also hear how we are defending them in this House. view

• 6 Mar 2024 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me this opportunity to support and congratulate the Chairperson of the Committee and his Vice- Chairperson, Sen. Tabitha Mutinda. I agree with them that the counties should get the Kshs415 billion without being deducted a penny. If this was done with the current money that is there in the national Government, the 15 per cent could have been more than Kshs415 billion. So, this should not be reduced. We plead with the National Assembly to agree with us and know that we are the defenders of devolution. They should not tamper with ... view
• 6 Mar 2024 in Senate: I also request the Senate, especially the Majority side, to support fully this recommendation. If we keep reducing this money from the counties, then our counties will not develop the way they are supposed to. Another thing is that the pending bills are too much in most of the counties. In Machakos County, we are talking of pending bills of almost Kshs3 billion. The former Governor left pending bills of Kshs2.8 billion with many stalled projects. I support that the pending bills should be dealt with and cleared immediately, so that the counties move forward and the people who did ... view
• 29 Feb 2024 in Senate: Asante, Bw. Spika, kwa kunipa fursa hii ili niunge mkono Mswada huu wa uhamishaji wa pensheni wa Kamati inayoongozwa na Sen. Osotsi. Ni aibu na haistahili, wala haifai kuwa magavana wanakata watu pesa zao za pensheni na kisha wakose kuzipeleka kule zinastahili ili wakati wafanyikazi wanastaafu, wapate malipo yao ya uzeeni. Mtu hufanya kazi ili wakati wa uzeeni, aweze kupata kitu cha kujisaidia. Wanapokatwa hizi hela, wanakuwa na matumaini makubwa ya kuwa, wakati wa uzeeni watakuwa sawa na salama. Bw. Spika, si hao wafanyikazi wa kaunti peke yao, pia kuna walimu. Hii ni kwa sababu ninaketi kwa Kamati ya Elimu ... view
• 28 Feb 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. My question to the Cabinet Secretary is about Maruba Dam. The dam was begun in 2019 and to date, it has not been finished and the contractor keeps on moving the timelines. What is happening? We need water. Hon. Njeru, I know you were not there then, but kindly, try to answer. view
• 28 Feb 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.53 (1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee of Education regarding the status of the release of capitation funds to all universities in the country.
