• 17 Nov 2022 in Senate: I hope the Chairperson of Committee on Finance and Budget will look at my Solomonic submission and ensure that we do not travel in that direction. This is a very serious issue. We are aiding and abetting corruption. If this will be investigated, they will be shocked. When somebody will walk through this door in future, they will be surprised that the Senate sat and said this is a public rip-off but they went ahead and approved for finances to medical equipment as key. Another point is on the accountability aspect. I have talked about this with governors. They should ... view
• 17 Nov 2022 in Senate: Do I really trust the information? view
• 17 Nov 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, not, at this point. I do not want to be informed. From the way he is smiling sheepishly, I do not trust him. As my junior, he should be taking notes while I speak and learning from the best. view
• 17 Nov 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in conclusion, on the issue of transparency and accountability, Sen. Sifuna; since he serves with me in the Public Accounts committee (PAC), the issue of accountability is not negotiable. Of course, I am extrapolating. Part of our role under Article 96 is oversight. This money that we are giving out must be accounted for, from one shilling to the millions of shillings that we allocate. Governors must know that we are not allocating this money for free range or to play around with. They must account. The great Governor of Migori county, Sen. Ochillo- Ayacko, who ... view
• 17 Nov 2022 in Senate: Sorry, Article 226(5). Thank you, Sen. Olekina. Even if you run away. Lieutenant General Mohamed Badi who headed the Nairobi Metropolitan Services (NMS) thinks that he handed assets and liabilities and that he will never be culpable. Governors Kananu, Tunai, Kidero and any other former governors must be aware that Article 226(5) is knocking on their door. I am not saying this in bad faith. All I am saying is in good faith. If you did not account for any money that was provided, you will be held accountable. The issue about Masai Mara collections by Narok county which came ... view
• 17 Nov 2022 in Senate: The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 17 Nov 2022 in Senate: Finally, before I cede ground to other colleagues, when we summoned the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC), I sat where you are sitting now. The EACC came and reported that they had only succeeded in convicting somebody who took a bribe of Kshs20,000. That is like 200 dollars. They have only succeeded in convicting someone who offered a bribe of Kshs20,000, but people who have looted in county governments walk scot free. They walk to the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) the way they want because they have manipulated it. EACC carries out an ordinary morning raid, seizes documents and ... view
• 17 Nov 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I can allow Sen. Osotsi. view
• 17 Nov 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that was not a point of information but a point of debate. Sen. Osotsi is a senior ranking Member of Parliament and he knows his party leader has been running laundry services in Capital Hill. It is in the public domain. I know what he is alluding to on the issue of the court cases. view
• 17 Nov 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, please give me one minute to conclude. Under the Constitution, the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) is not ordered by anybody. Sen. Osotsi knows that but when he comes here saying that DPP has been ordered to withdraw cases, who can order the DPP when the Constitution has given that office powers? view
