• 26 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: It is now called the Laico Regency Hotel. It was sold for a song. When Safaricom was privatised from Telkom Kenya, there is still the five per cent of its shares that nobody knows who owns. We cannot allow these things to happen in this day and age. The only reason this Parliament is set up is to protect the sovereign will of the people of Kenya and exercise it on their behalf. They are the owners of those parastatals. Parliament must approve anything happening to the investments made using taxpayers’ money. Any amendment that deprives the people of Kenya ... view

If counties are allowed to be also part of the contracting parties that can enter into contracts of PPP, then the overall idea will be quickly devolved across the country. The many projects in counties that cannot be carried out because of the budgetary constraints of those counties can quickly be carried out with the private sector partners. The general objective of this Bill ... view
• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: rates in working out their financial input in such a project compared to the other interested parties? So, there must be a clear criterion of evaluating. Parliament should be very strict in ensuring that the PPP Authority reports to Parliament periodically.
