• 19 Apr 2023 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, if you come from where I come from and you see lightning in Tinderet, we know the planting season is around. That is part of Tinderet Ward that borders Uasin Gishu and many other areas. I am happy Tinderet Ward will get a total of Kshs15,685,704 that will allow them to provide electricity, water and improve roads and schools under the affirmative action. Tinderet Ward has not been left out. You remember the famous Fr. Boyle. He was a missionary who tried to improve lives in Tinderet. Although he died tragically, Fr. Boyle was dear to ... view
• 19 Apr 2023 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I do not know why the Deputy Minority Leader is concerned yet he sits in the Senate Business Committee (SBC) and they are the ones that generate what we do on the Floor of the House. This is an important Bill. Sen. Wambua and I are ranking Members and he knows that under Article 96, we have a role to protect devolution. As a leader, he should ensure that we allocate sufficient time to canvass and put across our points. I will take into consideration what he is saying. view

• 19 Apr 2023 in Senate: This Bill should be passed in a bipartisan manner. I know there is another meaning of ‘bipartisan’ term. This Bill should be passed through consensus. Let me not use the word ‘bipartisan’ because this is an important Bill. All the 34 counties, whether from Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya Coalition Party or Kenya Kwanza regions are here. As a Senate, we just need to pass this Bill. Kisii is where God resides. I think they do not have many problems, unlike other areas, but we also get unique cases from Kisii. That is a story we can have a discussion with ... view
• 19 Apr 2023 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you are aware that the budget is Kshs6.3 trillion. The President has been deliberate to cut by Kshs303 billion, the funds that the Jubilee Government governed by the handshake raised. We are looking at Kshs2.9 trillion of Kenya Revenue (KRA) projections. We were being told that there were tax reliefs. I am happy that Sen. Onyonka brought a Statement to discuss if there are any challenges in the economy. view
• 19 Apr 2023 in Senate: In the last financial year, there were many issues being raised on the Floor of the House. Tax exemptions and reliefs were going to a high of up to Kshs370 billion. There were even allegations that imports from China worth Kshs400 billion had not been paid for. If we tighten the collection of revenue in the country, we shall be able to finance. We will be rocking a chair, signing music and playing guitar to a goat if we do not do it in a way. view
• 19 Apr 2023 in Senate: There is a reggae song that says whether if you look outside the window you see anything to smile about. Lucky Dube says - although I do not know its title - if you look outside and we are building more prisons than schools there is a problem. That problem needs to be resolved. When we pass a budget here, the National Treasury must release the money to the relevant entities of government so that they can function. view
• 19 Apr 2023 in Senate: I am happy about one of the flagship projects of the President the “hustlers fund” is taking off steadily and slowly. I encourage the young people of Kitui and Kisii counties where my brother Sen. Onyonka comes from take up the fund and also pay it back. There has been a narrative to take the fund and to pay back. view

• 19 Apr 2023 in Senate: This is a revolving fund. We want our young people to be good business people. The respected Bishop, Sen. Deputy Minority Leader of the House, a ranking member should be the one encouraging Kitui youth… view
