• 7 May 2025 in Senate: report? It is not the responsibility of the committee to babysit any governor. They should go and ask him hard questions, like what is obtaining in Nandi. It would be gross failure if the Committee on Health would go to Nandi and fail to interview the governor. It is so serious that in Kakamega, as I speak now, doctors are on strike. It is so serious that in Kakamega, the governor, through his chief officer, Dr. David Alilah, is trying to teach doctors corruption. When this committee goes there, it is time for them not only to talk to the ... view
• 7 May 2025 in Senate: Bear with me Senator. I rise under Article 202 and 203 of the Constitution of Kenya. The distinguished Senator from Elgeyo-Marakwet proposes that this House adopt a formula where each county receives an equal allocation of between Kshs5 billion to Kshs6 billion. Is he in order, given that the letter and spirit of the Constitution does not speak to equality, but equity? How does he intend for such a provision to align with Articles 202 and 203, which says that shareable revenue be shared equitably? view
• 7 May 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. They are very watchful these days. You know I represent a county where over 60 per cent are the youth and literacy levels are 91 per cent. Therefore, they follow us real-time, but thanks for accommodating me. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, can you allow me to just throw in a little question on a very important issue that you had raised before I asked this question? Hon. Cabinet Secretary, please help us. We are under a lot of pressure as political leaders from our youth, for good reason. Just a few days ago, a ... view
• 7 May 2025 in Senate: under the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) and or Competency-Based Education, which now include overseeing pre-primary, primary, and junior secondary schools? Secondly, could the Cabinet Secretary also state whether workload assessment and job evaluation have been done to inform such a review? If so, could you please provide details of the same? view
• 7 May 2025 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is a straightforward answer and I thank the Cabinet Secretary. Please, in your review, do consider bringing into consideration the new things introduced, including deductions for housing, increased deductions for Social Health Authority (SHA). It is not nice in communities like mine, where we have got a huge population of teachers, to see young people earning a salary of Kshs3,000 shillings after all deductions are done. We are treating our workers very badly, yet they take care of our children. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version ... view
• 7 May 2025 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is not all the time and every time that children come here and find when the Cabinet Secretary is here. With due respect, under Standing Order, No.1, can you request the Cabinet Secretary to go and speak to the children behind the tent? I am especially making this request because this “Kamwemb” School does not have a school bus. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, he can probably say something about that school bus. They came here in a matatu . view
• 6 May 2025 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is very sad. It is sad that a serving Member of Parliament (MP) has not only lost his life, but that it is being reported that the main suspect was an Administration Police officer. I do not understand what is happening. Is the problem the discipline in police, the command or corruption? This is happening on the backdrop of police killing five innocent people in Angata Barikoi in Narok County. These are serious questions that we must ask. We must demand that security be restored in the country. I am pleased to tell whoever is listening ... view
