• 1 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: So, it seems there is somebody somewhere in the National Treasury who is using IFMIS like a tap of water. He opens and closes. We have seen the Judiciary complaining that at times they open the IFMIS tap for a short period and close it before they finish their procurement process. When you want to spend money, it is closed. In fact, it should go further and not be an inquiry, but a Motion. The IFMIS is supposed to bring efficiency and effectiveness, but instead, it is being abused. At times, even Parliament cannot access its money. view
• 1 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: Parliament allocates money because it is the budget-making House, but the National Treasury will not even give us what we have been allocated. This is something that should be harmonised. There must be customisation to the two levels of Government and the three Arms of Government.

Speaker, it is of great concern that the management of Kimilili High School has allegedly misappropriated funds disbursed to the institution by the Government of Kenya and other donors like M/s Jenkins Check from the United Kingdom meant for school infrastructural development. It is on this account that I seek a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Education and Research on the following: (i) What measures has the Ministry of Education put in place to address embezzlement and misappropriation of funds in public schools?

• 28 Jul 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support this important Petition. During an inquiry into this Petition, I hope schools will be assisted to consider selling some of the perishable goods and use that money when schools reopen.
