• 18 Jul 2023 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am happy the Government has budgeted for more than Kshs5 billion for subsidised fertiliser in this coming planting season for 2023/2024 Financial Year. We hope the small matter of the Finance Bill that is in court shall be resolved so that we can get enough and sufficient resources. view
• 18 Jul 2023 in Senate: Finally, on the Statement by Sen. Okenyuri, I have seen her talking about the role of Abagusii Community in the fight for Kenya’s’ independence. We have Koitalel arap Samoei, the Nandi and the Kalenjin warriors who are yet to be compensated. I will be very keen to look at this. view
• 18 Jul 2023 in Senate: On the issue of retention of money, the law is very clear that retention of money acts to protect the Government or county government from liability. If there is anybody who has taken away retention money from these northern frontier counties, they must face the full force of the law. This is illegal. It is against financial law and the Public Finance Management (PFM) Act. The retention of money is supposed to work as insurance for the projects that we are undertaking in the county governments and in the national Government. view
• 18 Jul 2023 in Senate: We will be looking forward to this issue not only in the northern frontier counties but even in my county. When you check retention funds, especially for flagship projects, they no longer exist. They are violating the law. What is happening in northern frontier counties---we had another discussion in Committee on Public Accounts on retention money. view

• 18 Jul 2023 in Senate: So, I would be keen on that. Let us not only restrict it to the northern frontier counties. I would want other counties to be included. I request that this should not go to the committee in charge of Roads and Transportation. It should come to the committee where I am the Vice Chairperson so that we can handle it. view
• 18 Jul 2023 in Senate: I know how these people behave. I am the only one who has expertise in clamping them down and ensuring that we look at this issue. This Committee will not let the House, the leadership and Kenyans down. We will handle them where necessary to ensure they are accountable. view
• 18 Jul 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. From the onset, I thank Sen. Crystal Asige for this wonderful Bill. It goes a long way to celebrate her commitment. Kenyans generally and especially PWDs should be proud of what Sen. Crystal Asige is doing to push for their welfare. She has pushed for several Bills. I request her to also diversify because most of her Bills have been biased towards PWDs. However, I think it is rightful because in any case, this section of the population also needs the necessary attention that Sen. Crystal Asige is doing. I am happy of the commitment ... view

• 18 Jul 2023 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, it does not mean Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) were born like that but things like accidents, which are rampant in this country, can cause disability. I hope the relevant agencies like the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA), the Traffic Police Department and the Ministry of Roads and Transport will seize the matter. This is because we are losing many Kenyans through road accidents while some lose their limbs and sight which becomes a challenge. When we have a topic about PWDs, we should not imagine they are different from us. They are Kenyans too. There are ... view
