27 May 2025 in Senate:
We have come to the end of the financial year and we have left that out. We are now releasing this money. I want to appeal to governors and the Members of the National Assembly (MPs) in our counties. When it comes to sharing contracts and tenders, governors and MPs are friends. When it comes to hurling insults at the Senators, the governors and MPs are always friends. However, when it comes to people's issue where Kshs10.5 billion is to be released to maintain roads in our counties, we suddenly see that the governors and MPs do not want to ...

27 May 2025 in Senate:
Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I will not get to the specifics of this Bill. Arising from what I have said above, I want the people of Kakamega County to know that Fernandes Barasa will receive Kshs711,709,892 because of this industry. I want to inform the doctors of Kakamega County, who are owed salary arrears, that in this Bill, there is Kshs44,529,977. The doctors of Kakamega County should expect Hon. Barasa to pay them these millions next week. If he does not do so, I will lead them to the office of the Governor. We will throw him out until he ...

He has exported to Kakamega County the theft he used to practice at the Kenya Electricity Transmission Company (Ketraco). He will chew this money if we do not force him. They will, therefore, have nothing to eat. Because of this Bill---

27 May 2025 in Senate:
Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Indeed, it is because of the seniority you are alluding to that I would like to appeal to my younger brother, who is my junior in this Parliament by many years, that I am alive to the facts. It is due to the ongoing case of Kshs18 billion by KETRACO for which the governor was arrested by the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) that I have opened my mouth. Therefore, if you had challenged me to substantiate my claim, I would have done so using that case. I want to take this opportunity to ...

27 May 2025 in Senate:
I am sorry, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I will proceed. Since these funds have not been audited, we do not know what we deserve from the Consolidated Fund. This is the reason I propose to this House that we introduce the necessary legislation or amendments to the Public Finance Management (PFM) Act to establish a clear-cut structure that separates Appropriation-in-Aid (A-in-A) at the courts, distinguishing cases arising from county legislation from those due to national legislation. The A-in-A is very straightforward. Just as we have a county attorney, we can also provide in law for a county magistrate's court dedicated ...

27 May 2025 in Senate:
doing this, Kitui County will receive its rightful share. Kakamega County will get its allocation and Nairobi City County will access its billions because there is a substantial amount of money involved. The theft at the National Treasury that we are allowing must be addressed through necessary legislation. If there is an issue related to crime, then it is tied to royalties. Kakamega County has vast gold reserves. In his wisdom, His Excellency the President has led his Cabinet in recognizing this resource by initiating the construction of the first and only gold refining factory in East Africa in Kakamega. ...
