already expired. Then, 20 years down the line, they start constructing the house. While the smart one goes to the bank, give their payslips and state they expect to be working in the next 10 or 20 years. They can leverage on their cash flow in the future to take debt, buy a house and enjoy its benefits forever. It is the same thing with countries. We have taken into account that the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) will be there for 100 years. The debt taken on it cannot be paid for in the next five years. It will be ...

If you, however, did not borrow, but just stuck to your Kshs3 million in your small kiosk, you will never get far. I will be happy to give some lessons on that off-line, especially since we do not know what will happen after elections. I will be happy to offer consultations to those who may not make it back to the august House. We will be around with a few Members who are here. The reason they are here today is because they are confident that they are coming back. Those who are not confident are panicking out there. We ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. This is a very important Motion. I am very happy because Members have ventilated and put on record some of the sentiments which I do not doubt that the administration which will come will follow them.

7 Jun 2022 in National Assembly:
For the record, it is important to internalise one thing. There is an issue that has been raised which I want to address; transparency on debts. We have a budget deficit of Kshs846 billion this year, which is part of Budget support. If you move back 10 years times 10, it is about Kshs8 trillion that has gone towards Budget support. However, that is for the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) to interrogate for us. Like I said, I want to assure you that we are coming up with a stop-gap measure. It is important for purposes of moving forward. I ...

at this time of the year in this season. They have been able to sit down and look at this request, which has come so late in the day, and bring it for regularisation. The quantum may not be much or varied in terms of use. I am glad that the Government has seriously taken the sentiments of this House in terms of ameliorating the suffering of Kenyans on fuel prices. We cannot control the situation in Ukraine. The situation has given oil-producing countries the excuse to recoup what they lost at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. I like ...

7 Jun 2022 in National Assembly:
pending bills is how we are cutting down on money supply. People have supplied. People went to the bank and tender-financed loans were given. They bought goods and they supplied to the counties. They have not been paid. Of course the banks have had to recall their loans. People auctioned whatever they had, they paid and hence when you hear the cries of people that there is no money and that money is not moving around, it is partly because of the inefficiency or the unwillingness to actually liquidate some of these debts that are causing shortage of money supply ...
