• 3 Aug 2023 in Senate: Another biggest challenge is incomplete projects. Why would your predecessor find it hard to complete projects that you started, yet they know well those projects do not belong to you, but to the people of Kilifi or Nandi? As I speak, there are many stalled projects from 2013 to 2017, like the Governor’s Office in Kapsabet Town. Sen. Osotsi might have seen that white elephant because that is his route to Vihiga. When you look at the County Integrated Development Plans (CIDPs), there are flagship projects that have been earmarked for improvement. Some of us who are passionate about the ... view

• 3 Aug 2023 in Senate: I want to say on the Floor of this House that I shall not be intimidated, cowed and will not succumb to insults because I know the highest calling is being elected by the great people of Nandi. We need to look at the CIDPs and Annual Development Plans (ADPs). The issue of asset registers by counties is one of the challenges we are facing. You will be shocked that most counties do not have complete asset registers. Many assets have been acquired. For example, in Nandi, they acquired a tractor to prepare silage. The scams are interlinked with own ... view
• 3 Aug 2023 in Senate: Own source revenue is tied to the assets. Assets should generate money apart from the equitable shareable revenue and conditional grants. That is donations and other additional funds as per the Constitution. It shocks me that when counties pass Finance Bills, they go for public participation and then start chasing the mama mboga and boda boda to tax them. You will be shocked when you go where the mama mboga and boda boda stay. They say; ‘ kulipa ushuru ni kujitegemea .’ When it comes to collecting taxes from view
• 3 Aug 2023 in Senate: and the mama mboga in Nandi County, they are clobbered. However, when it comes to giving them services, even in Mosoriot Township where I was born and bred, our women sell their mboga and other merchandize in the open air. view
• 3 Aug 2023 in Senate: When it comes to collecting revenue, the county is quick. Just go to Nandi Hills Town or Kapsabet. In fact, Kapsabet Market is the worst of all. Can you believe that at Kapsabet Market, which is the headquarters of Nandi, there is no toilet, running water and proper sanitation? The situation is the same at Maraba, Kaptumo and Kobuchai. When we collect own source revenue, as a country, we must ensure that people get services. Mr. Speaker, Sir, at Chemelil-Chemase, our Boda Boda riders are hit by the sun because they do not have sheds yet they paid for Boda ... view
• 3 Aug 2023 in Senate: and Boda Boda riders. Nandi County is an example of what happens at the expense of providing service. The clarion call of Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) is view
• 3 Aug 2023 in Senate: . Let it be “pay tax, get service”. Why would you pay tax without service? Mr. Speaker, Sir, it pains me. When we go to the Devolution Conference, I will request the Committee of Trade to visit Kapsabet Town Market, which is the headquarters. I pity those women. Our women in this country are very beautiful and view

• 3 Aug 2023 in Senate: hardworking but their work places do not have toilets, water or electricity, which deprives them their dignity. I wish they could be motivated so that they work in a clean environment with water and electricity so that when paying taxes, they would dance and celebrate the way Kenyans are celebrating the Finance Act that the High Court has allowed. view
