  • 23 Nov 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me the opportunity to support the Report. The Committee has done a good job. This will draw a clear line between Members of Parliament (MPs) or the people in leadership who are entrusted with public funds to construct roads in this country. As it is now, it is confusing whereby you cannot understand who is to be held accountable for which road. When doing monitoring and evaluation in your oversight role as a Senator, you do not know who to hold accountable for a particular road. The electronic version of the Senate ... view
  • 23 Nov 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I support the Report of the Inter- Parliamentary Union (IPU). As I support, I want to register my concerns that I have identified some gaps within the Report that should be taken seriously. I tried to lobby while I attended the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD) for persons with disabilities in Geneva so as to know why persons with disabilities are not part and parcel of the IPU. There is a letter that came from Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) to the Senate requesting information on how far the Kenyan Senate and ... view
  • 10 Nov 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. This is doing a disservice to my Bill because it has been here for so long. This Bill touches on the lives of marginalized groups and they would like to see us conclude its deliberation. The Chairman was here and I fail to understand why he decided to go away, knowing very well that he was supposed to move the amendments. view
  • 10 Nov 2016 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for allowing me to add my voice to this important Bill. I can say it is timely and I want to congratulate Sen. Lesuuda for coming up with such a Bill. I have been asking myself so many questions about having data on disability within our counties. I will ask her if I can come up with an amendment or she includes this in this Bill that when carrying out the exercise of statistics, mapping and coming up with the number of people in the counties, it should have a column that reads that ... view
  • 10 Nov 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it will help us do away with the issue of rigging elections. This is because we will have information on how many people died within the ward or county and, therefore, eliminate ghost voters. There will be statistics simplified to the point where it can be accessed and understood by the people within a specific area. Kenyans will not need to plan long journeys to Nairobi County to access the needed statistics. Service delivery and efficiency will also be improved in terms of people who want to know the population of a particular area. In service ... view

  • 3 Nov 2016 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for allowing me to contribute to this Bill that seeks to amend the Constitution of Kenya. I support this Bill simply because it is an amendment that seeks to bring some sanity and draw lines between the organs of Government. It also seeks to allow Parliament to carry out its mandate without interference. It reaches a time when our hands are tied and we cannot deliver or carry out our day to day constitutional requirements. Our Constitution still has some grey areas that need to be amended. However, we must only carry out amendments that ... view
