• 5 Nov 2020 in Senate: I hope this matter will be put to rest. When CAK will come to this House, some of us will have so many questions from the market prices to the aspect of the control of the beer or alcohol market in this country. view
• 5 Nov 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for that indulgence. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.48(1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Energy regarding the loss of Kshs2.3 billion at the National Oil Corporation of Kenya (NOCK). In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) State the circumstances that led to the diversion of fuel products and falsification of credit and delivery notes by the NOCK officials. (2) State why the Corporation has failed to keep and provide proper records and order processing procedures thus resulting to the loss of Kshs2.3 billion. (3) Explain why no ... view
• 5 Nov 2020 in Senate: The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 5 Nov 2020 in Senate: (4) Explain what the Ministry of Energy is doing to avoid the impeding asset seizure and auction of the NOCK properties due to defaulted bank loans amounting to over Kshs5.3 billion. Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is worth for the House to note that Members of the National Assembly have also recommended that the NOCK is becoming insolvent and not tenable and therefore it should be privatized. That is the information I wanted the House to know. I thank you. view
• 5 Nov 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, before the Chairperson of the Committee on Labour and Social Welfare responds, there were also matters of casual labourers who were fired by Wajir and Nandi county executives but we have not received any responses from the Committee on Labour and Social Welfare. The issue was urgent at that time and you directed that they should report back but it never happened because we went on recess. Mr. Speaker, Sir, you should direct them to give responses either today or by Tuesday next week even if they are interim answers to those Statements. view
• 4 Nov 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. I agree. I indicated earlier before we went on recess that it seems that road agencies in this country have a problem. The Kenya Urban Roads Authority view
• 4 Nov 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I concur with the Statement by Sen. Malalah. I rarely agree with what he says, but on this one, we are on the same WhatsApp group. I thank him because the continuing spike of COVID19 pandemic across the country is sad. We have seen occasions, even in my county--- For example, in Nandi, Kshs180 million was allocated at the beginning of this pandemic in March, this year. Even one litre of sanitizer or a single mask has not been provided by the county government, yet, when the County Executive Committee (CEC) Member was summoned ... view
• 4 Nov 2020 in Senate: beggars, yet the country and the President had indicated that they would be given risk allowance and provided with PPEs. As we talk, we have always seen the Kenya National Union of Nurses, Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dental Workers Union (KMPDU) that fight for the rights of health workers are still on their knees begging for something, as if it is a privilege, yet it is a right. When we look at Article 43 of the Constitution, health is a right and not a privilege. Even in the ongoing presidential elections in the United States (US), one of the key ... view
• 4 Nov 2020 in Senate: now mean that by 9.00 p.m. you are in your house. It is a win for the women in this country because people will not be joking, drinking alcohol and messing around. I think that has been what has encouraged the spike and spread of COVID-19 in this country. We urge Kenyans to follow the Ministry of Health protocols. I have seen the CoG say: “No mask, no service”. We agreed that there should be proper containment measures in this country. Many young people thought that COVID-19 would only kill the old people above 58 years. We have seen even ... view
• 3 Nov 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity. From the onset, I want to congratulate the team led by Senior Counsel, Sen. James Orengo, Sen. Okong’o Omogeni and Sen. Mutula Kilonzo, Jnr., for the job well done. I also want to congratulate your office for facilitating Dr. Okello, Ms. Mercy Thanji and other officials who assisted us in ensuring that the process was smooth. In two or three occasions, when I was the Chairperson of the Committee on Legal Affairs, I had the opportunity to accompany Sen. Orengo and Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr., to Milimani Law Courts and I can ... view
