• 14 May 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we look forward to rectifying all that in order to ensure that things work for the benefit and good of this country. I thank you. view
• 14 May 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I want to thank Kisumu County and all Senators who made it to the Legislative Summit. We are proud of Kisumu County since it is my neighbouring county. I want to assure you that Kapsabet is also ready to host the next Legislative Summit. We might be having problems here and there, but I can assure you we will be ready. view
• 14 May 2019 in Senate: Secondly, I look into a future where the Legislative Summit will include the Members of the National Assembly because the reason we are having claw-back Clauses in this country is because Members of the National Assembly do not appreciate the role, principle and the function of devolution. If this is done, they will assist us in fast-tracking the passage of some legislations that we propose at the Senate, that are made and geared to facilitate and fast track the implementation of devolution in this country. We need a joint Legislative Summit between the Senate, Members of the National Assembly and ... view
• 14 May 2019 in Senate: Finally, arising from a meeting that we had between the Legal Affairs Committee of the Council of Governors (CoGs) and the Senate Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights, there was a proposal that we need to standardize Standing Orders especially in our county assemblies across the country. view
• 14 May 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, some resolutions regarding national legislation were made at the CAF and I hope that Members of the Senate and the National Assembly will come to an agreement regarding these resolutions. I assure you that if we include Members of the National Assembly in this Legislative Summit, this will ensure efficiency in the passage and implementation of the Bills that involve implementation of devolution in this country. view
• 14 May 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 30 Apr 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Division of Revenue Bill with amendments. I agree that the counties need more money. The Kshs310 billion that was proposed was too little for the counties. Therefore, we need Kshs335 billion. We need more money to go to the counties. First is the (Medical Equipment Scheme) MES. This issue has been very thorny because there have been unclarified matters. That has been a conduit of corruption – even if the National Assembly had proposed a reduction from Kshs9.4 billion to Kshs6.2 billion, I thank the Committee for removing the money that ... view
• 30 Apr 2019 in Senate: MES. This was a way of swindling money. As set out in the Fourth Schedule of the Constitution, the health function has been devolved. When you look at MES and upgrading of Level 5 hospitals, the increment on trying to bring back the national Government to continue discharging the health function is against the spirit of devolution in this country. I have seen their proposal on agriculture. These are some of the issues that we need more money to be given to the counties. We do not need more money to be given to the national Government on issue of ... view
• 11 Apr 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I also join you in welcoming students from Isiolo County and wish them well. I am also made to understand that St. Theresa‟s Tartar Girls‟ High School students were here. My elder sister, Madam Consolata, is the Principal of that school in West Pokot County. I hope that Sen. Poghisio is taking good care of her. Secondly, I agree that the rising cases of insecurity in the universities and other institutions of higher learning are very alarming. I hope that the various university councils and senates that run these institutions will come up with ... view
• 11 Apr 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Bible says that we are surrounded by a cloud of witnesses. Some of us were witnesses of your evangelistic work in the North Rift. As I conclude, I emphasize that the management that runs these universities institutions must work together with the DCI. We now challenge the DCI to step in and tell us what is really happening that we are experiencing a lot of insecurity especially in our institutions of higher learning. view
