• 17 Nov 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, the issue of an independent power producers agreement is where the real problem is with the high cost of electricity in this republic. The new CS, Dr. (Amb.) Monica Juma has assured the country that they will give us a gift before Christmas day. I, therefore, appeal that the issue of independent power producers must be addressed. view
• 17 Nov 2021 in Senate: I hope that the Chairperson of the Committee on Energy is listening. The second issue is on the PDL fund. During the monthly reviews by the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA), we have seen that the issue of fuel remains constant throughout this period. view
• 17 Nov 2021 in Senate: Through the Committee on Energy, the Senate really wants to know whether the PDL fund will assist our people. We need our people to be cautioned. You are aware that the World Bank (WB) is telling the country to review some of its issues. view
• 17 Nov 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, it is good that you come from Uasin Gishu. I was shocked that a 50 kilogramme bag of maize is sold at Kshs1,350, yet the cost of using diesel is very high. Selling maize is still very costly. A 50-kilogramme of maize bag is being sold at shs1,350. However, when the cost of fuel is still very high. view
• 17 Nov 2021 in Senate: I appeal to the Committee on Energy to kindly address the issue of the PDL fund. We were told that regulations were in place. Can Sen. (Eng.) Maina confirm to the House whether the rules and regulations on the management of the petroleum levy fund has been developed, so that we can have a proper handling on how the funds can be used to subsidize prices and ensure that fuel does not become costly. view
• 17 Nov 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, I congratulate the Chairperson of the Committee on Energy and appreciate that they will address the remaining issues. view
• 17 Nov 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity. From the onset, I am torn whether to support the report or comment on it. Millions of shillings were lost under the cover of the pandemic when we had people in offices who were supposed to be the custodians of the interest of Kenyans. There was an outright breach of trust, confidentiality and integrity by the board and management of Kenya Medical Supplies Authority (KEMSA). The only silver lining in this report is a situation where they have become specific. This is one of the reports. I agree with Members that ... view
• 17 Nov 2021 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it would be easy to track some of these recommendations and implementation. However, the silver lining on this report only is that they have become specific. They were bold enough. That is what we want to agree. I had my colleague from Migori County saying that a presidential directive is as good as the law. I know the President or his handlers are watching this. The 21 days were given last year for this investigation in the KEMSA heist and COVID-19 billionaires’ scandal to be investigated. It is more than a year. No one have been ... view
• 17 Nov 2021 in Senate: KEMSA has been rewarded. Are we likely to see the CAK going down the way KEMSA is going down? Most likely. They have even gone ahead to fire some junior “hustlers” that is drivers, messengers, and tea girls. We need to be honest that if we have to fight corruption, let us remove politics. The biggest mistake as I go to my third point is that we have politicised and weaponised the fight against corruption. If you are politically correct, you will never be arrested. If you are politically incorrect, you will be arrested. That is what KEMSA is all ... view
• 17 Nov 2021 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the way he looks chirpy and lively, maybe I will agree. view
