16 Feb 2022 in Senate:
It is important that it requires legislation. However, up to now, I have not seen any existing legislations to support blocs other than policies by the national Government. The First Schedule gives a clear way of coming up with these economic bloc agreements. That way, we have some structured way of engagements by the counties because these could not be the only blocs. Other interests may develop and you will find that some even belong to more than one bloc. There must be a way of joining these blocs. Legislation will go a long way in ensuring that we have ...

10 Feb 2022 in Senate:
Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity. I would like to support the Statement by Sen. Cherargei. We know very well that scrap metal is a source of livelihood for some people. It is also a raw material for industries in this country like the Jua Kali sector, steel manufacturing industry and battery manufacturing industry. This is a balancing act because in trying to source for these scrap metal we have seen what has been done to power lines. The pylons have been vandalized and we have had the country plunge into blackout because of that. I believe that ...

8 Feb 2022 in Senate:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to support this Motion. We are now in the last session of this Twelfth Parliament which I believe will be the shortest. The SBC should focus on the outstanding businesses. The earlier the Committee is approved, the better for us. I was also looking at Standing Order No.184(1) which talks about the membership. It does not say clearly about the Whips, but in 184(4), parties are supposed to include their Whips in the list of nine and I think it is in order. I also agree with my colleagues that it is better when ...

Bw Spika, kama mwakilishi wa Kaunti ya Marsabit katika Seneti, nina huzunika sana katika hali ambayo mwaka huu na miaka mitatu iliyopita imekuwa kwa wakaazi wa

Kaunti ya Marsabit. Kwa bahati mbaya kulikuwa na ukosefu wa amani katika Kaunti ya Marsabit na watu wengi wamepoteza maisha yao takriban zaidi ya watu 100. Kuna wakati hesabu ilikuwa ilifanywa. Mali nyingi imeibiwa na nyumba kuchomwa. Ni huzuni sana kwangu kuwakilisha kaunti kama hii katika Seneti. Kila wakati tunajaribu kutatua hali hii na kwa bahati mbaya ni vita na ukosefu wa amani ambao unatokana na viongozi na wanasiasa ambapo mpaka sasa hali haijatulia na haijabadilika. Inaendelea tu kuharibika. Naomba Mwenyezi Mungu tukiwa tunaelekea wakati wa siasa aweze kutupatia njia ya kutatua shida hii. Ni kwa sababu ni wakati ambao ...

mtu kwa usawa. Lakini hali ambayo tunaona kama wakaazi wa Marsabit sivyo serikali inatuhudumia. Serikali pia katika hii vita imeonekana ni kama inaegemea upande mmoja. Jamii fulani ikivamiwa, serikali haina habari lakini wengine wakivamiwa ni tofauti. Juzi ilifika kiwango tuliona mara ya kwanza serikali inakuja na nguvu sana kuhakikisha kwamba jamii fulani ikivamiwa wanafuata wale wengine kurudisha mali yao. Lakini hawa wengine wakati walikuwa wanavamiwa serikali hata ukijaribu kuwaambia wachukue hatua, hawataki kujua. Wana lawama na wajue kwamba serikali ni ya kila mtu na inatakikana ihudumie kila mtu. Bw Spika, katika hii hali ya ukosefu wa usalama kuendelea katika Marsabit ...

21 Dec 2021 in Senate:
Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Report by the Committee on Finance and Budget on the Budget Policy Statement (BPS), 2022. This House has been involved in the discussion of this BPS for a long time since the inception of the Second Senate. However, one question I have been asking myself is whether it is an academic exercise or we are contributing anything to the Budget making process. We have been discussing this issue year in, year out, and I do not think our views have been taken into account. The National ...

21 Dec 2021 in Senate:
Madam Deputy Speaker, sometimes I wonder whether we are doing an academic exercise or we will affect the budget-making process. If you look at Section 25 of the Public Finance Management (PFM) Act, it is clear. It states that the resolution of Parliament on the Budget Policy Statement (BPS) should inform the preparation of the annual budget. However, is that actually the case?
