Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is a Procedural Motion, which is straightforward. The reason we will not have sittings outside Nairobi this year is because ... view

• 4 Aug 2020 in Senate: Report of the Standing Committee on Finance and Budget, on 13th July, 2020, on the revenue allocation formula, and the concerns that were raised by colleagues on the proposed formula, efforts were made, through the intervention of the Senate Leadership, by constituting a team of Senators from both sides, to address these concerns. Unfortunately, following from the debate of this Motion which commenced on Tuesday, 28th July, 2020, and which is scheduled to resume today, we Senators, are still grappling on this matter. I continue to urge my fellow colleague Senators, that as we resume the debate today, we need ... view
• 28 Jul 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I oppose this Motion and the Report of the Committee because we are being taken to the dark days of this country and we will not accept that. There is no difference between the Motion by the Committee and Sen. Kang’ata’s Motion. We should not lie to each other. What was brought by the Committee was illegal because they threw away the formula that was proposed by the Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA). What is on the table for the affected counties is marginalization versus one man, one shilling. Marginalization versus BBI; marginalization versus population. ... view
• 28 Jul 2020 in Senate: cannot allow that to happen. We cannot allow people to sit in Nairobi and make decision for people who live in my County, which is 1,000 kilometers from here yet they do not understand the dynamics of those counties. Isiolo County is currently getting Kshs4.2 billion and the formula is taking away Kshs869 million which is close to Kshs1 billion. I am being told to put a signature on something that will deny my County development for five years and I will not accept that. view
• 28 Jul 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, people need to understand what we go through. I think people should understand that even today, in those counties, our mothers are travelling hundreds of kilometers to look for water. When we append our signature to this formula, we are saying that our mothers should trek for the next five years. We cannot allow this. Today, the country is watching to see which counties will be marginalized and who is punishing those counties and taking them back to the dark days of--- view
• 28 Jul 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I oppose this Motion because we are told that the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) is proposing a 35 per cent revenue increase, but where is it? We are being told that we should pass the formula or BBI will collapse. We do not care! Let BBI collapse, because money is everything to us. We have been marginalized over the years. Therefore, we cannot sit here and be lied to that we will pass this formula for two years then we will change it after two years. What will happen to those Senators who will come in at ... view
