• 27 Jul 2023 in Senate: No, Madam Temporary Speaker. I have sufficient information. view
• 27 Jul 2023 in Senate: Sen. Ali Roba is my friend. I respect him as my elder brother. I know he will buy me tea after this to give me more information. Madam Temporary Speaker, the functions of the project identification and implementation committee shall be to undertake public participation. We need to agree that all the things that we are doing will be important. Clause 22(c) states that- The functions of the Project Identification and Implementation Committee shall be to- (c) prepare and submit project funding proposals to sub-county technical committee; I am answering Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, the bullfighter. I hope he is not ... view
• 27 Jul 2023 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I hope Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale is getting the notes bullet by bullet. The only problem I have here is the involvement of counties which are bastions of corruption. Today, I saw Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale attending a programme on the state of the Nation. We are also going to hold the Devolution Conference in Uasin Gishu. The biggest clogging system, threat and cancer of the functionality of devolved units in this country, is corruption. Madam Temporary Speaker, yesterday, there was a complaint that it looks like we have gone back to the default settings of 2013 where money ... view
• 27 Jul 2023 in Senate: One of the roles is to protect the interest of counties, which does not only involve sending money but also oversighting it and representing the people. Madam Temporary Speaker, with those remarks, I support this Bill. When it comes to the Committee of the Whole, I will have a few amendments to put here and there. I am happy that Sen. Oketch Gicheru is at least doing legislative work. I also want to advise him that meaningful change can only be done on the Floor of the House and not in the streets of Nairobi. Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. view
• 26 Jul 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise pursuant to Standing Order No. 52(1) to make a Statement on issue of general topical concern and national importance, namely Faith Kipyegon attaining a hat-trick of world records inside seven weeks by shattering the one-mile world record in Monaco. Mr. Speaker, Sir, Faith Kipyegon, once again made history when she broke the world record on the one-mile race by clocking 4:07:64, shattering a record previously held by Sifan Hassan of 4:12:33 in 2019, in a standing display of dominance, setting a new record barely seven weeks after breaking the world records in 1,500 ... view
• 26 Jul 2023 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I hope under your guidance and magnanimity, you will allow yours truly to attend the world championship in Budapest, Hungary in August. I am also an athlete, but I run my athletic during the night. I continue to call upon the Ministry of Sports, Culture and Heritage and the National Olympic Committee of Kenya (NOCK) to partner with the Ministry of Tourism and Wildlife in marketing Kenya as a tourist destination, using our athletes as brand ambassadors for Kenya, thus enabling them to have a decent reward from the Government. I am also an athlete, but I ... view
• 26 Jul 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I would like to request that at the end of the presentation by the Senate Standing Committee on Health, you can allow us to make a few comments before proceeding to the Next Order. view
• 26 Jul 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I will proceed to make comments on the Statements made under Standing Order 56 (1) (b). I am surprised that the three statements by the Chairpersons have been mere reports. When you read Standing Order 56--- It is good the Senate Majority Leader is here, so that he can guide them. Standing Order 56 (2) states that – “A Statement made under paragraph (1) (b) shall include- (a) the Bills, statements and petitions considered by the Committee and the status of each.” The three Statements by the three Chairpersons have been reports. For instance, Sen. ... view
• 26 Jul 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity. From the onset, I congratulate and thank Sen. Mumma, who is one of the Members of the Speaker’s Panel. She is doing very well. This is a very unique area on SDGs. view
• 26 Jul 2023 in Senate: It behooves all of us that we left Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) that were supposed to be achieved in a certain period of time. This is a wonderful Motion. Many people would assume that the Senate is trying to look for the job that they want to do. However, the courts have decided. Do you remember the Supreme Court decision? I was following the proceeding earlier on because I was held up in exigencies of duty somewhere. The citations are escaping my mind, but the courts including the Supreme Court of Kenya have ruled that Senate does not only oversight ... view
