• 26 Sep 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. With due respect and, please, for your indulgence, I was requesting in advance that he comes with more information on this very critical issue because it is already in the public domain that even at the Westgate, the NIS had already given intelligence. So, we want to be sure that in the instance of Wajir and Mandera incidents, the NIS had given intelligence and the police, once again, slept on the job. They did not take action. He should come up with that information because it is important. view
• 26 Sep 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Government for continuing this programme that was started by the Government of President Kibaki. The Chairman has told us that this programme has been rolled out to all the 290 constituencies. I am appalled because in Kakamega County, this programme does not exist in Nabakholo Consituency, Mumias West Constituency, Ileho Division of Shinyalu Constituency, Idakho North of Ikolomani Constituency and so on and so forth. Could we give the Chairman time to come and lay on the table of the House the exact detailed list of beneficiaries, constituency by constituency, so ... view
• 26 Sep 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I want to support this Motion and register only one small concern. The Chairman of the Committee could have helped us by analysing these figures a little bit. When you look at each respective county, you do not see why a county is given a particular amount in a particular month. At the very best, when you look at it, this seems to be done arbitrarily. I will give you an example of my own county of Kakamega. We are being told that for the month of August, Kakamega received Kshs553 million which is ... view
• 26 Sep 2013 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I was in when the Chairman was eloquently explaining this point. However, my concern is the issue of corruption. The Government does not collect money, keep it in an account and then spend it. The Government spends as it collects. So, where is this assumption that in the month of October, the Government will collect so much money coming from? These assumptions are the ones that have left opaque areas in our financial management of our The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 26 Sep 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker. Indeed, it was in that context that we do not want to allow county governments to just sit at home waiting for this block cheque from Nairobi and do nothing. We would like to encourage them to raise money. Narok County should be one of the richest counties in this country. It was the bad management from Nairobi that did not allow the potential of Narok to be realised. This is why we must push them, as the Senate, and ensure that our role is not just limited to revenue division and revenue allocation. Finally, ... view
• 26 Sep 2013 in Senate: Thank you for that afterthought. Since you are my senior in medicine, I saw you looking at me and I became nervous. Now that you have made me comfortable, I will not continue, but will remember, next year, when I will be a Speaker to--- view

• 24 Sep 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, like those who have spoken before me, I would also like to send my heartfelt condolences to the families of those who lost their lives and those who are still in the hospital with injuries. The matter we are discussing now brings to my mind one question; what is being human? Being human does not mean being rich or coming from this or that kind of society or the profession you are in. Being human means your conscience. Therefore, if the terrorists do not have the conscience of asking themselves; of what use or benefit is ... view
• 24 Sep 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, indeed with all due respect to the hon. Senator, he heard me very well. I talked about going to areas where we have the cells of Al Shabaab . If Sen. Sonko gave Westlands as one of the cells, I have given another example. view
