• 18 Oct 2023 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in the history of this country, no Member of Parliament or a group of MPs have ever sponsored themselves to meet the cost of discharging the mandate of a committee. It is in public domain, the pronouncements made by Members of that Committee who went to the home of this witness trying to persuade us that: “Forget it, we sponsored ourselves.” The same Members have also persuaded us in order to dissuade us from being angrier that, “I can show you how I bought my own ticket to the rendezvous.” I beg that I do not get ... view

• 18 Oct 2023 in Senate: I just want to conclude by appealing to the “I” in our minds that the only other ad view
• 18 Oct 2023 in Senate: committee that captured the imagination of this country almost to the levels of the Shakahola Committee was when J.M Kariuki was murdered. The issue of Shakahola has captured the country more to the extent that when I attended one of the sittings as a friend of the Committee, Sen.

Madam Temporary Speaker, so that we do not get into a quagmire during the time of voting as it happened earlier, some Members mistook the sharing of this fund to be an entitlement of all the 47 counties and all the 290 constituencies and the 1,450 wards. Far from it, the error arose from the anger of some Members. After seeing ... view

• 18 Oct 2023 in Senate: given water, electricity and improved road infrastructure so that they could come reasonably nearer to other areas. This noble spirit has been misunderstood. People have confused this with a fund for fighting poverty. The money for fighting poverty is domiciled in the shareable revenue where areas with high levels of poverty get more money. This money was over and above the poverty index. I thank you for this opportunity. I appeal to my colleagues to vote for this Bill. I second. view
