• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: officers and public officers. That is important because once the wealth declaration is made, it is filed to somewhere and nobody has an access to anything. So, it is only the institution that is employed that gets access to that information. However, once this Bill is enacted, any public officer is accountable to the public. The public are the people who pay the taxes. Therefore, if the people do not have access to that information, they will never know whether somebody has been living beyond their or within their means. Madam Temporary Speaker, the consequences of the Bill is that ... view
• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I wish to withdraw. I beg to move the Bill and ask Sen. Omogeni to second. This life is continuous learning. Some of us are not lawyers, but we are learning along the way. I wish to thank Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki for correcting me. view
• 12 Oct 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. Is the Senator in order to discuss four Senators without any substantive Motion? I thought that was against the Standing Orders. One of the Senators, representing the youth, is not even in the House which is unfair. There is no substantive Motion for him to defend himself and the issue should not be discussed. Also, Sen.

• 12 Oct 2021 in Senate: I also wish to join the Deputy Senate Majority Leader in urging Kenyans and especially the youth who have always complained of being underrepresented in Parliament and other elective leadership positions to get identification cards so that they can elect themselves. Similarly, I urge women to also register as voters so that we can achieve the two-third gender rule without having to struggle and complain that men are not doing as a favour by passing the “Gender Bill”. view
• 12 Oct 2021 in Senate: As you are aware, I sponsored a Bill on the two-thirds gender rule which has not been passed from 2018 up to now.
