• 8 Aug 2023 in Senate: Last but not least, is the issue of natural disasters. It might look laughable, but who would have known that locusts which were last a threat in this country after the Second World War would again be a threat in our lifetime? So, such disasters including floods, e tcetera are a real thing. I want to conclude by registering my disappointment with the Attorney-General who is my friend. In fact, after this I am going to give him a call. When this proposed amendment was brought before the House, it went to the Cabinet and the--- view
• 3 Aug 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Just like those who have spoken before me, I note with great concern that Christians are petitioning against their own church. I noticed the mention of the area chief and the community elders. Traditionally, elders have been preceding the word and the opinion of chiefs. I am sure that when the Committee will go to the ground, they will discover that this particular chief is one of the usual, typical big man syndrome, sort of chief that we get in the rural areas. A chief who after the community allowed the church to be given ... view

• 3 Aug 2023 in Senate: Even if it is 10 hectares, the money I make out of an operation of 30 minutes, can enable me to do further investments, similar to the money that Sen. Cherarkey makes in court. You do not have to fight over your fathers 10 or 100 acres of land. You can actually live as a professional doctor, lawyer and so on without necessarily owning a title deed. This mindset must be removed, so that we can now plant trees or do afforestation in our country. Let us leave those people who are professional farmers to grow wheat, maize and sugarcane ... view
• 3 Aug 2023 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise under Standing Order No.105. Did you hear the Senator for Kisii County, call the administration of Kenya Kwanza, headed by President William Ruto a regime? Could he table evidence to demonstrate that the administration is actually a regime? What we have is the--- view

• 3 Aug 2023 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am rising on a point of order in line with Standing Order No.105. You have heard the Senator for Nairobi City County speak to a misleading statement that there was no increment in the amount that was allocated in the Division of Revenue Bill. The second falsehood he is alleging is that there is a delay in the disbursement of funds and yet, as late as last week, there was no single county with arrears. In fact, last week, Kshs232 billion was dispersed to the county governments. The Division of Revenue Bill that we passed raised ... view
• 3 Aug 2023 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, according to the Constitution of Kenya, the Division of Revenue Bill cannot be signed into law without the concurrence of the two Houses. Is the Senator of Nairobi City County in order to mislead the country that, by us agreeing with the National Assembly, we were failing in our responsibility yet we were meeting the constitutional threshold that expects that, for the Division of Revenue Bill to become law, it should meet the recurrence of the two Houses? In conclusion, on this point of order, I am tired and sick of new Senators in this House giving ... view
