• 7 Oct 2020 in Senate: Allocation Revenue Bill as passed by the Senate is commendable. We are hoping that within the next seven days, or much less time, the President will find time and reason to assent to the Bill. view
• 7 Oct 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, having said that, and following on what Sen. Cherargei has just commented on, it is true that The County Allocation Revenue Bill is probably one of the most important Bills that we will be passed by this House; the matter of sharing of revenue among counties. view
• 7 Oct 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, what baffles me is that there are counties that are able to continue paying salaries to their staff without delays irrespective of whether or not The County Allocation Revenue Bill has passed. There are counties where a slight delay in the passage of The County Allocation Revenue Bill or disbursement occasions long delays in payment of salaries. It is incumbent upon governors to ensure that they come up with innovative ways of ensuring that, at the very least the payment of salaries to staff is not affected by technical delays in the passage of The County Allocation ... view
• 7 Oct 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to lay the following Paper on the Table of the Senate, today, 7th October, 2020.

• 7 Oct 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I hate to interrupt my senior. However, it is the responsibility of government, not just the Kenyan Government, to ensure the safety and security of its citizens. When matters of security and safety of citizens are brought up in a Statement or otherwise, and Members ventilate in a manner to call the attention of Government to act to ensure peace and stability in the nation, it should not be misconstrued as bashing it. Is the Senate Majority Leader in order to say that questioning the Government over issues of insecurity is bashing it? view
• 6 Oct 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity to add my voice on this matter in the celebration of World Teachers’ Day. As it has been said by my colleagues, teachers play a very important role in the society. They do so both inside and outside the classroom. However, the most unfortunate thing about our situation is that our teachers have largely been reduced to beggars. I do not understand why when it comes to their salaries and allowances, they either beg for it from the Government or viciously fight for it. I was in Kitui County over the weekend ... view
• 1 Oct 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity. If my memory serves me right, this is the second Petition this month dealing with boundaries between counties. This is a serious matter. A matter that this House attempted to resolve or provide a blueprint for a resolution of disputes arising from county boundaries. It is a bit difficult to understand the point at which a Bill has not properly originated from the House where it is supposed to originate. The Bill to give effect to Article 188 of the Constitution sponsored and moved by the Senator of Makueni went through ... view
• 30 Sep 2020 in Senate: Thank you. Mr. Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity to make a comment on the Petition brought to the Floor of this House by Nandi Senator. The issue of non-payment of contractors by secondary schools should not arise. The laws governing procurement in this country are explicit that by the time you are issuing a tender for supply of goods and services, you have ring-fenced the amounts equivalent to the cost of the tender you have floated. This is a continuation of bad manners in the management of public affairs, especially the relationship between contractors and contracting agencies in public service. ... view
