• 21 Dec 2021 in Senate: The National Treasury has never been sincere with providing timely information on the issue of the public debt. view
• 21 Dec 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, I really hope my time will be held. view
• 21 Dec 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. I want to note the presence of Sen. (Dr.) Mwaura. I was not there when he was readmitted back to the House. I welcome him back and tell him to carry all the burdens to the Lord as the Bible says in Mathew. It is good to see him back. We hope next time he will be elected so that he does not have to depend on anybody to be in this House just like the rest of us. We wish him well. view
• 21 Dec 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, I was on the issue of public debts. As I was saying, there was wisdom for some of us to reject them. Of course, there should not be any attempt, imagination or dream to bring back or raise the ceiling to Kshs9 trillion. This is because the National Treasury has never been sincere. If they were sincere, they would have done what they promised to Parliament. They would provide timely reports and ensure that the money they wanted to borrow sorted out the expensive commercial loans. However, they have never done that. view
• 21 Dec 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, you can see the effect on the economy. We have been told by experts that the first charge will be on the public debts. The Chinese will come calling. The road to Shanghai will be real. I have been told that Kenya Airways pilots have been told to fly very fast over some of the Chinese cities. If we are not careful as a country, we will go at the same speed. You remember that during an interview with some of the leading media stations, the President promised to provide the country information on allegation of using ... view
• 21 Dec 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, quickly on to the pending bills. You and I come from almost the same region. It is sad that most honest people in our counties have been contractors, but they have never been paid. This is in every county. I do not know how we will resolve this issue of pending bills. view
• 21 Dec 2021 in Senate: There are many people who have lost their property because they used it as collateral security to do some of the county projects. As the Senate, we have failed. It looks like when a new governor comes in, the other contractors are left out and new contractors are taken on board by the new governor. We must agree on the pending bills issue. There are many Kenyans in our counties that continue to suffer. Nandi is one of the counties that still have pending bills. It is shocking that the National Treasury had to issue a circular to resolve some ... view
• 21 Dec 2021 in Senate: Sen. Wetangula is distracting me. Machakos County is unique because part of it is part of the metropolis of the city. How do you address the other side? My final point is on the issue of Managed Equipment Service (MES). This continues to be a public rip off. I do not know why it exists here. We had put a zero last time. I can see that the MES is now allocated Kshs5.2 billion. I cannot see any Member that was here when the report was tabled. view
• 21 Dec 2021 in Senate: Please, give me one minute so that I can finish my trail of thought. view
• 21 Dec 2021 in Senate: Thank you, my neighbour. Madam Deputy Speaker, there was a report that was tabled before the Senate that said that this scheme was a public rip off. Why are we still supporting it? I, therefore, reject and oppose this Report in its totality. view
