• 25 Apr 2024 in Senate: only complete with CECMs, COs and directors in place. There are consequences of violation of Section 148 of the PFM Act. This is a serious Statement; it is not just an ordinary Statement. I would have expected the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights and the Committee on Devolution and Intergovernmental Relations to immediately invite or summon the Governor of Garissa to explain to this House why COs have not been vetted and appointed. The process of appointment of county public service officers is very clear. When you appoint officers, they must be vetted by the county assembly. ... view
• 25 Apr 2024 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would like every Senator to listen to this with a lot of respect. I am speaking with a lot of authority as the Vice- Chairperson of County Public Accounts Committee (CPAC). Under Article 225 of the Constitution, this House has power to even stop funds because who is the accounting officer of Garissa County Government as at now? There is no CO as provided in Section 148 of the PFM Act. What the County Executive of Garissa is doing is illegal, unconstitutional and violates the law. That is why I want to talk about the ... view
• 24 Apr 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for that direction and guidance. I rise pursuant to Standing Order No. 52 (1) to make a Statement on an issue of general concern topical and national importance namely, the shattering of the women’s only marathon world time record by Peres Jepchirchir in a staggering and superb performance at the London Marathon on Sunday 21st April, 2024. Peres Jepchirchir has once again brought glory to our country. This time through the London Marathon where she shattered the World Women's Marathon (WWM), title that was previously set by a compatriot Mary Keitany of two hours, seventeen ... view

• 24 Apr 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I hereby call the State Department for Sports to clearly state what transpired and what actions have been taken against the responsible persons that denied Kenya an opportunity for qualification for the walking race at the Olympics in Paris later this year. Mr. Speaker, Sir, even as Alexander Mutiso Munyao, Peres Jepchirchir and others landed yesterday at 5.00 a.m., there was no one to receive them at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) or even to give them a Maasai shuka . It is very embarrassing to these world-beaters. I also wish to call upon the Ministry ... view

• 24 Apr 2024 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Articles 125 and 153 of the Constitution. Under Article 125, on power to call evidence, this House has the power to request anybody to appear before it. That article points out that this House enjoys the status of the High Court. When you read Article 153 of the Constitution of Kenya, it talks about the decisions of the Cabinet and that they should be in writing and, of course, extrapolated. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from ... view

• 24 Apr 2024 in Senate: As a legal practitioner and a lawmaker in this House, I have never seen a situation where any entity or person, including the President, can move to the High Court to appear at their own convenient time.
