• 12 Oct 2021 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, with those remarks, I congratulate Sen. (Dr.) Ali. When this Bill will be scrutinized at the Committee of the Whole, we will come up with ideas on how to refine and make it better to serve our people. view
• 7 Oct 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I know that you have already welcomed them. However, on my own behalf as the Senator for Nandi County, I welcome the MCAs and technical staff from Nandi County Assembly. May I take this opportunity to tell them to feel free and welcome to the Senate. I know that as we work together, under Article 96 of the Constitution of Kenya, 2010, it is very clear that the primary role that both Senators and MCAs have is to protect and oversight county governments. I extend my warm welcome to them. I thank the Committee on ... view

• 7 Oct 2021 in Senate: Rights before things went haywire. I was also a Member of the Committee on Labour and Social Welfare. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am happy that Sen. Sakaja earlier on informed me that they had a successful meeting with the joint Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights, where my learned senior, the Senate Minority Leader is a Member. I am happy that they have made tremendous engagement and capacity building. May I request my MCAs from Nandi County and their technical staff to feel free to engage our staff. Mr. Speaker, I know that your Office is gracious enough ... view
• 7 Oct 2021 in Senate: Nandi County is a source of champions. We have made tremendous efforts on the Floor of this House. When I was still the Chairperson of the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights, there was an overflow of the address of land historical injustices of the Talai Community. I thank your Office and the Senate because that Report was adopted. I hope that the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights gives the MCAs a copy, so that they can see the resolutions that we tried to make in addressing land historical injustices in Nandi County. view
• 7 Oct 2021 in Senate: There is also an upcoming Motion on the issue of sports. The maestro of the athletics world, the king of the marathon, Eliud Kipchoge, comes from Nandi County. There are many others too. Sports is one of our biggest resources. view
• 7 Oct 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, may I remind the MCAs and visitors who are here that, last year, we fought over the Third Generation Formula. May I report to them that last week, we did the Cash Disbursement Schedule. This Financial Year 2021/2022, Nandi County is set to get an additional Kshs1.6 billion. Therefore, Nandi County will now be getting an equitable sharable revenue from Kshs5.3 billion to now Kshs6.9 billion courtesy of yours truly and many other Senators who fought hard on the Floor of this House during the debate on the Third Generation Formula. view
• 7 Oct 2021 in Senate: I would like to assure the MCAs that they should now budget comfortably because we are talking about Kshs6.9 billion, only with the additional Kshs1.6 billion. We have not talked about the National Agricultural and Rural Inclusive Growth Project (NARIGP) and the Danish International Development Agency (DANIDA) conditional grants. I challenge the MCAs that whenever they do budgeting, they should be comfortable that their Senator was the leading light in ensuring the additional Kshs1.6 billion. view
• 7 Oct 2021 in Senate: Going by the future of Nandi County, I want to confirm to you that if that money is used well, the lives of 800,000 residents of Nandi County will never be the same. This figure is according to the Kenya Population Census 2019. I want to assure my MCAs that the future of Nandi County will be better as things will improve and that devolution will work. view
• 7 Oct 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, technically, I am their “father” because I am here on their behalf. They are my people. I am proud of them and that is why I refer to them as “my MCAs”. view
