• 29 Sep 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I first congratulate Sen. Dullo and the other Committee Members that have looked into this MES mess that has been with us for a very long time and for coming up with a 253-page Report. view
• 29 Sep 2020 in Senate: It is almost impossible to do justice to such a report by making comments on it for six minutes. I hope that going forward, we will be able to borrow best practices from the debates we watched on television that take place in the House of Commons and even in our neighbouring country, Tanzania. We see representatives of the people given time to The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 29 Sep 2020 in Senate: debate and ventilate on issues that touch on the people they represent because that is why we are here. view
• 29 Sep 2020 in Senate: Going through it with a very candid and fearless eye, I have no hesitation in concluding that this project was unwise, unjust and almost bordering on throwing away all the values that we put in place when we enacted our 2010 Constitution. view
• 29 Sep 2020 in Senate: If you read through it, you must single out one human being of the 47 men and women who are governors in this Republic. It is only one man who stood alone and strong enough and refused to sign this Memorandum of Understanding between the Government and the county governments. That one man is the former Governor of Bomet County, hon. Isaac Rutto. As they say, the strongest man is he who stood alone. As we indict all the other 46 governors, it is hon. Ruto, who stands out. view
• 29 Sep 2020 in Senate: What really pricks our conscience as leaders is the fact that, reading the Report, you will notice that the Government behaved like a thug. I have read that in some counties, including Kakamega County, the Government dumped the medical equipment forcefully at the offices of the County Government of Kakamega. view
• 29 Sep 2020 in Senate: I cannot understand how a Government can act so thuggish to the level of carrying equipment and delivering them in the hours of darkness. We know that under Article 6 of the Constitution, we have two levels of government that should cooperate with each other. view
• 29 Sep 2020 in Senate: The conclusion I make is that, the schemers behind this project wanted to impose this idea of leasing medical equipment on county governments without even caring whether some county governments were ready to receive them. view
• 29 Sep 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker Sir, if you read it, you will be shocked that in the Country Government of Meru, they have been paying for machines that have been lying in the Netherlands for the last six years. In my county of Nyamira, we have been paying for equipment that were dumped at the Keroka Hospital for the last six years yet we have never made any use of them. view
• 29 Sep 2020 in Senate: What I really have an issue with on the recommendations in this Report is that we are trying to crucify professionals such as the law firm of IKM, simply because they rendered legal services. We are going after the wrong people. This law firm of IKM is a local one owned by Kenyans that simply rendered professional services to the Government. view
