• 13 Nov 2024 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, could I rephrase? I have said, ‘some political party leaders’. I did not say all. I have been in politics long enough to know some of these things. I might be young, but I know so many things that many people do not know. Anybody can be nominated by political parties to serve as a Senator or Member of Parliament. I agree with the information from my sister, Sen. Ogola. If you know you are nominated on merit, why worry? I am calling out political party leaders who are political briefcase parties. When they get a ... view
• 13 Nov 2024 in Senate: My sister, I have abandoned the statement. On the issue of the declaration of the Presidential election results, the chairman of IEBC should have the opportunity to declare the president-elect. view
• 13 Nov 2024 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we do not want to go where the ‘Cherera Four’ tried to do. I agree that the person who should declare the president-elect and deputy president-elect should be the chairman of IEBC. We do not want to go to the ‘Cherera Four’ debacle, which almost brought this country to instability. I agree with the wisdom that you brought that at least the IEBC chairperson should declare the president-elect and deputy president-elect. On the issue of electronically transmitting results, we are in the era of technology. Two hours is enough. If we are not careful with the ... view
• 12 Nov 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity and also to welcome you back. I am aware you were on an official parliamentary tour monitoring the U.S. elections. I want to take this opportunity to thank and congratulate the people of the United States of America. Specifically, we want to applaud the election of the 45th and 47th President of the United States of America, Donald Trump and wish him well as he serves. I hope he will give policies that will be of help to Kenya and across the world, specifically, our Haiti mission that we have to ... view
• 12 Nov 2024 in Senate: I will do this in quick succession because I will take two minutes to support this Motion. I want to congratulate Sen. Beatrice Ogola for moving this mediated version of the National Rating Bill. I am privileged to serve on the County Public Accounts Committee. The Senator for Kakamega should note that as we talk today, the County Government of Kakamega, Lamu, Nandi, and many other county governments, including Bomet, do not have a complete asset register that gives rise to valuation role. The definition of a valuation role is for local taxation to value property where you are using ... view
• 12 Nov 2024 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am happy you led the Members of Parliament (MP) from Bomet County there. If it is possible that they fail to take action, we can support the parents. The Standing Committee on Health of the Senate can visit Longisa Hospital and cross-check. They can even write to Kenya Medical Practitioners Pharmacists and Dentist Union (KMPDU) for action against those officers who did not do their job. I agree with Sen. Ogola. Let us talk about professionalism. In fact, those nurses who allowed that child to die should have their licenses cancelled by Kenya National Union ... view
• 12 Nov 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, as I conclude. view
• 12 Nov 2024 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the reason I brought up the issue of Longisa Hospital is because, first, this House is sensitive and alive to other matters that happen, because we are leaders. Secondly, I wanted to drive the point home on the role of valuers. Sen. Ogola, has highlighted the requirements of you being employed. One of them is that we must get approval from a relevant professional body. That is why I brought the relevance that the The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from ... view
• 12 Nov 2024 in Senate: nurses who delegated their duty should lose their license, just like valuers or government valuers who do not do their job. That is how I was driving my point home. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, last weekend, I saw Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale hosting the President, and the prayers were being done. He did not speak anything about prayers. Instead, he spoke about building a road from Nairobi to Malaba because it is congested. That was not relevant to the event of the day, but I am happy he made his point. That is the relevance I was bringing. On the issue ... view
• 12 Nov 2024 in Senate: With those remarks, this is a good mediated version of the National Rating Bill, and I hope we will pass it to allow counties and the national Government to do rating. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, when the National Assembly tried to pass the Finance Bill, 2024, I had seen a proposal of a number of taxations which did not affect the mwananchi in order to raise Kshs170 billion meant to fill in the deficit. Therefore, as we raise the Kshs170 billion, I request the Government to return Kshs20 billion for the allocation to counties for them to get Kshs402 billion. ... view
