• 25 Feb 2021 in Senate: Just to pick up from where Sen. Wambua left, I heard this week that the SGR is not even capable of evacuating the cargo from the Port of Mombasa. That is what was in the news recently. So, we are running into problems after we have disenfranchised the road transporters and now we cannot swallow what we have chewed. I think it is will be a problem. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, in this kind of situation, the BPS would have been an austerity measure budget where we should be cutting down on our expenditure and living within our means. Unfortunately, ... view
• 25 Feb 2021 in Senate: proposing this is not thinking thorough and needs to be stopped. We will address it in the Division of Revenue Bill. Lastly, the roads sector needs to be very realistic, when they give their revenue requirement of Kshs400 billion and they get Kshs200 billion. They should know that is what is available and plan according to what is there. They should concentrate on completing the started projects, specifically the Low Volume Sealed Roads 10,000 (LVSRs) Programme. This was a Government of Kenya project which was touted very much as one of the Jubilee flagships. Since it is a GoK funded ... view
• 24 Feb 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Coming from areas where these animals are still found in their natural habitats, there have been efforts to conserve some of these endangered species like the Grevy’s Zebras.

• 24 Feb 2021 in Senate: balance. This is because, for example, right now in Marsabit, the park is being fenced to keep out the locals who have been used to watering the animals in the park. When it is done that way, there is a lot of preferential treatment to the animals than the human beings. The animals can come out because they have corridors to get out, but you cannot get in even during the dry season to water your animals there. I will still go the same way Sen. Pareno said. Let us balance when we are doing these things. Let us take ... view
• 24 Feb 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I thank Sen. (Dr.) Musuruve for bringing up this issue. I unfortunately come from a community, which is at a risk of losing its language. The Rendile language is being lost because of mixing with the Samburu culturally. It is very important that children are taught their mother tongue at an early age, especially at the ECDE level so that they can easily know their culture. It is important that such a day be celebrated, especially within the counties. For example, my county where this kind of a situation exists this could be a good ... view
• 24 Feb 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I rise to second this Motion on the Adoption of the Report of the Sessional Committee on County Public Accounts and Investments (CPAIC), on the audit reports for Financial Year 2014/2015 for the county executives of Bomet, Homa Bay, Isiolo, Kakamega, Kiambu, Laikipia, Kisumu, Mandera, Migori, Mombasa, Murang’a, Nandi, Nyeri, Samburu, Siaya, Tana River, Tharaka-Nithi, Trans-Nzoia, Turkana and Wajir. view
• 24 Feb 2021 in Senate: I also urge the Senate to adopt the reports because it is our responsibility as the Senate to oversight the funds we allocate from the equitable share or the national funds. We do it mainly by looking at the Auditor-General’s report. view
• 24 Feb 2021 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, devolution is a new form of governance in this country, which we gave ourselves under the Constitution, 2010. The reports we were discussing were for the second year of devolution. The first year was 2013/2014 then. view
• 24 Feb 2021 in Senate: The Committee has done a commendable job going through all the reports of the 47 county executives and county assemblies. This is a bunch of the executive audit reports reviews by the Committee. As a Member who joined the Committee in the last Session, you could say that the issues in the Report are mainly teething problems, because we were starting new systems and county governments had to learn how to run public affairs and develop systems. You could even see from the Auditor-General’s report that there was no unqualified opinion that year. This means they had issues with all ... view
