• 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

• 21 Jul 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I will be very brief. As my colleagues have said, the former local authority members of staff are discriminated. The trustees are taking the huge chunk of their savings from them. This matter needs to be resolved quickly. I hope the Committee will look into it. view
• 21 Jul 2020 in Senate: Secondly, there were a lot of disparities in terms of how the budget was allocated to IDPs in this country. A very good example was my county where people living in Kinna from post-election violence have not been compensated to date. Finally, issues of land are emotive. It is not only the IDP of 2007 post-election violence. Kenyans who are living in their own land are today being dispossessed because of the manner in which the Ministry of Land is handling land issues. A very good example is Isiolo County where we had a petition and a Statement before the ... view
