• 15 Feb 2024 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I told you that a young person will always tell you something futuristic. We are all happy that the Dollar exchange rate is coming down. However, Sen. Orwoba, without production in the county, you cannot influence the economy positively to attract dollars into the country.

This is the bigger picture and we are heading there. In conclusion, let us reflect on why devolution. It was intended to take services, amongst other things, close to the people. If you remove the service of water and take it back to the national Government, as this Bill is trying to attempt or make it difficult to access affordable healthcare, as I warned in Turkana County that day, ... view
• 15 Feb 2024 in Senate: We must make devolution work even if we do not want to be governors of the future.

The biggest threat was spoken to by the greatest Sen. William Fulbright in the history of the Congress of the United States. Go and read about his contribution. He said that once we get elected, we get something called the arrogance of power. view

• 15 Feb 2024 in Senate: Sen. Orwoba, once one has the arrogance of power, you forget the woman in Kisii who queued for six hours to vote for you as Senator, even when they have never seen and will never see you. Let us raise the game. Let us make good laws that will make Kenya successful. I oppose this Bill. view
