  • 23 Jun 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, remember we have what is called the County Allocation of Revenue Bill which is yet to be passed. Our counties are yet to receive monies. It is the plan of the Government that whatever counties we will receive in this financial year should be subjected to the Third Generation Formula. The deadline for doing so is 31st June, 2020. Taking all that into account, we thought of seeking the permission of this House that we extend. We have a fresh sitting tomorrow so that we resolve those two major issues. view

  • 23 Jun 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, first, allow me to apologise to the Hon. Senators who have been whipped to briefly respond to this Bill, reason being that we want to conclude this Bill before the end of business today. The reason is that, one, it is a National Assembly Bill, which needs to be processed as soon as possible.

It is unfair for my sister from Nakuru to push the Senator from Embu out of my seat. view

  • 16 Jun 2020 in Senate: Yes, Mr. Speaker, Sir, allow me. When you look at the Order Paper, you will see that there are many Statements. If we were to go through all of them, I think we will be doing--- We need to take into account some Members who came just for this Motion. In particular, there are some Members who specifically told us, as Whips, that we take their interests into account, including the curfew and some have health issues. I ask you to kindly rearrange the Order Paper and we give the Motion on the issue of impeachment of the Governor for ... view
