• 29 Apr 2021 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The hon. Senator for Nairobi City County has said a very strong point that we seek your directions on. He has said that some Members signed both the Minority and Majority Reports. Is that a legal and correct parliamentary procedure where you have Members who are signing the Majority and Minority Reports, which reports conflict? view
• 28 Apr 2021 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker. One, I seek your direction that tomorrow – as you had rightly stated – I can come after him immediately he is done. Two, I also seek the Chair to clarify to Members that currently, there are two different Bills being considered in the National Assembly and in the Senate and the effect of that. The Bill which is here, that is IEBC certified, differs from the one in the National Assembly. view

• 23 Feb 2021 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I rise to support this Motion. Let me first start by congratulating my Chairperson who is a very experienced administrator. I am also a Member of the CPAIC. We have done a lot of work to collate and collect this information. We have been able to table this Report for the consideration of the House. I will give several reasons I would be urging colleagues to support this Motion. view
• 23 Feb 2021 in Senate: I will start by concentrating on issues on Murang‟a County. We have 47 devolved units in this country. This Committee undertook the auditing process for every county in this Republic. However, the only single governor who refused to attend to the CPAIC was Hon. Mwangi wa Iria. This was a shame to the people of Murang‟a County because he could not answer audit queries concerning billions of shillings given to Murang‟a County. view
• 23 Feb 2021 in Senate: On average, Murang‟a County receives Kshs6 billion every year. Every time an auditor goes to Murang‟a County, the reports we get are what we call disclaimer reports. In auditing, there are four types of reports; one, we have unqualified opinion which is the best. It means the books are well prepared and there are no audit queries. Second category is qualified report. Third is an adverse report and, finally, we have a disclaimer report. A disclaimer report is the worst. view
