• 29 May 2024 in Senate: On the revenue formula? view
• 29 May 2024 in Senate: If it concerns the revenue formula, I would be cautiously seeking his information. However, he can inform me. view
• 29 May 2024 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, as the Bible says, as Jesus Christ grew in stature and wisdom, I am impressed and surprised with the wisdom of the young Senator as he grows in this House. I am happy that the information he has given is up to the point. I would not add anything because I find it useful and Solomonic. We are discussing population. When we go to Murang’a County, we want to see the value of the money we have given to the governor and county government. This applies to Nandi and Kitui counties. I know the Senator for Kitui ... view
• 29 May 2024 in Senate: Where is the role of the Senate? Under Article 93 of the Constitution, 2010, Parliament has been defined as the Senate and the National Assembly. I agree with Sen. Methu that the National Assembly is the biggest threat to the progress of Parliament and the Republic of Kenya. If they are not undermining devolution, they want to de-legislate the Senate. Governors must get this right. The National Assembly proposed allocating Kshs391 billion to counties, and the Senate proposed Kshs415 billion. We pushed the National Assembly and the mediated teams to Kshs400 billion. When it comes to legislation, the National Assembly ... view
• 29 May 2024 in Senate: We cannot allow them to legislate us out of the work we are elected under the Constitution to do. On the issue of protected constituencies, I expected the NADCO--- I thank Sen. Wambua because he appeared before NADCO. I was denied the chance to appear before NADCO. I wanted to tell them to ensure the 40 constituencies, including wards in Vihiga County, are protected. What happens when we pass the law? Where will the 40 constituencies go? Sen. Mungatana has a protected constituency in his county. In North Eastern, we have protected constituencies. I wanted to talk to NADCO members ... view
• 29 May 2024 in Senate: No, he was in the other one, before the real boys went in! If we pass this Bill, what happens to the 40 protected constituencies that have a right to be represented? This is why we must amend this Bill. People are crumbling for more counties. Like in Migori County, Kuria want a county. In Bungoma County, they want another county. In Kitui County, they also want to be subdivided into two counties. If we scrap the 40 protected constituencies, it will be unfair. We would like to inform the people who did this report that they did a disservice ... view
• 29 May 2024 in Senate: On the issue of one person nominated by the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) and by the Inter-religious Council of Kenya, it is very important. It should have the face of Kenya and gender parity. I agree that the current selection panel should be given a chance because they have not violated the law. The work that they have done must be re-looked at because they are using the taxpayers' money. On the issue of the commission, I have seen that five people will form a quorum. I have heard people saying Mr. Wafula Chebukati in the ... view
• 29 May 2024 in Senate: In this Bill, it has stated that if the Chairperson of the IEBC is missing, then it does not stop the business of the commission. If somebody had kidnapped Wafula Chebukati and this law was not in place, what would have happened? view
• 29 May 2024 in Senate: I do not need any information, please. My time is spent. view
• 29 May 2024 in Senate: If Wafula Chebukati had been kidnapped, where would Kenya be now? We cannot allow this amendment from Azimio La Umoja, One Coalition Party. It cannot fly through our faces, and we must amend this. If the chair is not there, the commission should not function. Finally, on technology, we must take it up to the level that we have confidence in it. view
