• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I want to congratulate Sen. Farhiya for this Statement. I think all of us agree that we have a problem, especially on pending bills with our national and county governments. I am aware that pending bills for counties are approaching a figure of more than Kshs110 million. That translates to around Kshs2 billion at an average by 47 county governments. When you walk around in villages you will find many young people, women and PWDs have taken LPOs to be financed by banks. They have given out collateral security of the land, property and their ... view

• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: my county, you have to be politically correct to be paid. This is the service that has been provided to the county government and the people of that specific county government. The people who are suffering are people who come from that locality within the same county. These are people who have done construction of ECDs. You might have a pending bill of Kshs1.5 million which you incurred building an ECD centre. These people are yet to be paid. The suffering that the youth, women, PWDs and the vulnerable in the society undergo and yet they sacrificed a lot to ... view
• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, thank you for this opportunity to make a few comments before I second. I congratulate the Mover of the Bill, Sen. (Dr.) Milgo, for this wonderful Bill, the Heritage and Museums Bill 2021. This Bill is long overdue. As a country, we need to be innovative on how we can continue to increase revenue in the country and expand. For us, when you talk about the heritage and museums, it is one and synonymous of the history we have. view
• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: They are so many. When you look at the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), they have five sites across the world. Those sites that are being mentioned from the Great Wall of China to Peru, among others, they are being visited by most o the tourists. Therefore, it translates to the revenue. view
• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, as a country, it is important that now we are including county governments to be part of the establishment of the county and country museums. The bottom-line is to increase the revenue that we get from such sites. The UNESCO has tried and I think it goes to many ideals. When you look at the mandate and mission of UNESCO, it is to create reasoning within the exchange of intercultural in terms of scientific in a way to eradicate issues of poverty. view
• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: The UNESCO in itself has given a good basis where internationally, when you have such a legislation that is in place, it will give a legal framework on how international partners apart from UNESCO can assist. You remember a few months ago; a very famous site was burnt down in Paris. Even as they do renovation at the moment, they make sure they try and retain its originality. These places also wear and tear because of weather, fire and manmade issues. view
• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: We have seen people that--- because of insatiable appetite towards personal aggrandisement, you see people even want to bring down very important sites. This is because they want to build hotels and personal commercial ventures. At the end of the day, it is a short-term agenda. Somebody somewhere wants to gain and get the money. They decide that they want to destroy very important heritage that we have in this country. view
• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, one significant thing is that we will now have county museums where it will be run and managed by counties. We shall have national museums so that they increase the bracket of revenue collection. view
• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: Next week on 19th October, we commemorate around 119 years since the death of Koitalel arap Samoei, the famous chief who led Nandi resistance against the view
