• 23 Feb 2022 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, my sister wants to be the Women Representative of Kakamega County. She must look nice before Baba and Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) luminaries as well as Azimio la Umoja Coalition stalwarts like my brother, Sen. Orengo. I appeal that we should protect the institutions by --- view
• 23 Feb 2022 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, that is what I was just saying, she has done well. Sen. Shiyonga is my Chairperson in the Committee on National Cohesion, Equal Opportunity and Regional Integration. I know the Senate Majority Leader, Sen. Poghisio, is uncomfortable because there are few people from his region who have joined the One Kenya Alliance (OKA). The Senator for Turkana County has joined the WIPER Party. The family of OKA is expanding and we wish them well. What I am saying in brief is that let us in future allow institutions to thrive. I do not need to be the ... view
• 23 Feb 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. You have to note that Sen. (Dr.) Ochillo-Ayacko, kept quiet while the Senate Minority Leader was making that comment. It depends on which side you are. Personally, I am ready to serve in any Committee of this House. I got experience when I used to serve in the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights. God willing, I will now serve in the CPAIC. I have also served with Sen. Shiyonga in the Committee on National Cohesion, Equal Opportunity and Regional Integration. The underlying issue is that in future we should at least have ... view
• 22 Feb 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. On my own behalf and on behalf of the great people of Nandi, I take this opportunity to pass our deepest condolences to the family of the late Sen. (Dr.) Machage, the former High Commissioner to Nigeria and also the Senator to the great people of Migori. Looking at his history, having been a medic as well as a champion of minority rights groups, the minority groups have lost a champion in this Republic. I read his history and learnt that he has a twin brother who used to be an Ambassador to Russia. Our ... view

• 22 Feb 2022 in Senate: think they closed down but they used to have a hospital in Migori and another one in Narok. Madam Temporary Speaker, it is sad for the country. This old man was a seasoned politician and leader. His beard which was his trademark was his signature. It comes at the backdrop that devolution must work as he was a pioneer Senator. They were the first Senators including some of our colleagues, who set the basis and the foundation when devolution was something new. People did not know how the Senate was supposed to function. A lot of functions were devolved including ... view
• 22 Feb 2022 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, I have heard the Senator for Migori, talk about the Equalization Fund. However, in his Statement, he has not given us an action plan of the Committee. We know very well that there is violation of Article 219 of the Constitution. This because when the money has been disbursed under the disbursement schedule and County Allocation Revenue Act that has already been passed, the Ministry of National Treasury and Planning should not in any way violate Article 219 of the Constitution. So, we expected the Committee to give us action plans that they have put in place ... view

• 22 Feb 2022 in Senate: I expected the Committee to guide the House on how to ensure that the National Treasury and Planning is held accountable. What are the action plans that are put in place? This should not be a bottleneck process of ensuring that devolution works. view
• 22 Feb 2022 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, I think that is important because several counties, including Nairobi City and other Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs), should get Equalization Funds based on Article 204. They should be advising us because we get Equalization Funds from the national Government. There is also the issue of public debts. The Committee should advise us on what next now that the country’s public debt is approaching Kshs11 trillion. Does it affect the revenue that is raised? If we raise revenue nationally, it means that we must pay our public debt. Now that the country is struggling with a public ... view
