• 8 Mar 2022 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, not to challenge the ruling of the Speaker, but I wanted you to make a specific ruling. What happens in a situation where a chairperson of a Committee is out of the country on official business, which is known to the Speaker, because I travelled on the authority of the Speaker? I wrote to draw his attention to the fact that I would not be able to present the report on behalf of the Committee. The letter was received by the Speaker, but the House still proceeded to consider the business for which I had sought permission ... view

• 8 Mar 2022 in Senate: should the House treat such a situation? That is the direction I want from the Chairperson. view
• 8 Mar 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, I begin by thanking the Chairperson for this very good report that he has presented before the House this afternoon. I applaud the good work of the Committee chaired by Sen. (Dr.) Ochillo-Ayacko. This is a marvelous job. They have pointed out a number of anomalies on how their Excellency, our governors are really mismanaging our counties and in the process presiding over misuse and plundering of public resources that are supposed to be utilised for the benefit of the people we represent. Sen. (Dr.) Ochillo- Ayacko, it is sad that you are electing to ... view

• 8 Mar 2022 in Senate: I served as Chairperson of Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) and I had the benefit of visiting a number of countries. I remember one case of Nigeria. I went to Nigeria after Olusegun Obasanjo had taken office. He appointed Nuhu Ribadu as the head of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). I know it was painful to a number of former and serving cabinet ministers in Nigeria. Houses were recovered and converted into hospitals in Nigeria. That is what we are looking forward to, where big houses that have been bought using public resources will be recovered and handed ... view

• 8 Mar 2022 in Senate: can take up. These two volumes have given graphical analysis on failures by various counties to follow various financial laws and I expect our MCAs to take it up. I heard Sen. (Dr.) Ochillo-Ayacko mention that they summoned members of the EACC who appeared before the committee and their discussions on corruption allegations have been highlighted in the report. We also expect action from the EACC. Where necessary, we should invoke Article 125 of the Constitution. It is long since we summoned the head of the EACC to appear here and tell us the effort he is doing to make ... view

• 8 Mar 2022 in Senate: This will ensure that when Parliament if appropriating money, it appropriates money for CoG because next time Sen. (Dr.) Ochillo-Ayacko will be the governor of Migori and he will realise that he needs the secretariat to serve him. Every time we review Bills here, we always consult the CoG to give input and comments on various Bills. There is no doubt that they need a secretariat and they need to be funded by the Government but there is a lacuna in law. The best House to address that lacuna is us. I will be appealing to Senators to support my ... view
