• 7 May 2025 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you for allowing me to welcome our visitors. Dear visitors, the reason you see the House is slow to start off this afternoon is because we have lost a colleague of ours. There is a requiem mass that is ongoing. So, most Members of Parliament are out there. Welcome to Kenya, especially those ones from Ghana. Ghana and Kenya draw quite a number of similarities. We are proud to note that you have strengthened your democracy. The difficult times you had of military coups is now behind you. We hope that you will remain a strong ... view
• 7 May 2025 in Senate: to them that they should pay for that long throne of 20 feet of pure gold, where the King now sits. That is gold from Ikolomani in Kenya and gold from Accra in Ghana. They stole it from us. You are most welcome. view
• 7 May 2025 in Senate: Yes, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am equally concerned. I sit in the Senate Committee on Finance and Budge. The Cabinet Secretary did the same thing to us yesterday only that he was clever by a half in the sense that his excuse was that he was attending the Cabinet. You can see that he was not in Cabinet, he was in a rally. If this Parliament is not going to rise, what is happening in the Broad-Based Government is not going to be any different with what we saw in the Grand Coalition Alliance. Once people who have been opposing ... view
• 7 May 2025 in Senate: Cabinet Secretary for any community, leave alone the Luo Community. He must serve us equally. view

• 7 May 2025 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in consideration of the Bills, the committee noted great overlap and repetition in a number of Bills. For example: (a) The Public Finance Management (Amendment) Bill No.3 (National Assembly Bills No. 44 of 2024), a Bill recently received from the National Assembly has similar provisions relating to the financial transferred functions. These provisions are already contained in the Public Finance Management (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bills No.40 of 2023), which was sponsored by Sen. Hamida Kibwana, MP, processed by this House and referred to the National Assembly in 2024 for consideration. (b) The Public Finance Management (Amendment) Bill ... view
• 7 May 2025 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, there has been additional strain on TTIs that have been promoted to become national polytechnics, with special reference to Shamberere in Malava Sub-County and Sigalagala National Polytechnic in Ikolomani Sub-County. While visiting, the President assured us that he was going to put up a number of hostels in those institutions. Mr. Speaker, Sir, could the Cabinet Secretary confirm how much money he has set aside for constructing hostels in those two institutions as directed by the President? When is construction going to commence? Could he also reassure our students that the other areas of need, like lack ... view
• 7 May 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Cabinet Secretary, let us admit it. From your table, the school needs Kshs12.9 billion in pending bills and you want to give them Kshs145 million per month for the next six months. That gives us a total of Kshs870 million. That is in view of the paltry Kshs207 million that they are able to generate on their own. The college is insolvent. Hon. Cabinet Secretary, can you make an undertaking? You cannot do it now, but you can take an undertaking that a few weeks or months from now, you will present to the public ... view
• 7 May 2025 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am lost for words. I am speaking on the contributions made in respect of the report on health. I do not know what is biting the former governor of Mandera and what is biting the current Senator of Nandi. What is wrong with a committee going into a county and having a sitting with the governor and actually affording an opportunity to field questions that will enrich their The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
