• 21 Apr 2016 in Senate: I have been moving around like a nomad. view
• 21 Apr 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Senate Minority Leader has mentioned some interesting facts here which we need him to substantiate. Does he mean that there are lesser Kenyans than others? He said that some IDPs were given Kshs10,000 while others Kshs400,000. Could he elaborate and tell us whether he meant the same IDPs or something else because this is very serious? view
• 21 Apr 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. You are right. Sen. Wetangula was a Minister and I was a Permanent Secretary (PS) in the previous Government. Therefore, are the figures that the previous Government gave different from those that this Government has given? Let us not confuse this. We need to know the reasons why the IDPs were initially given Kshs10,000 and then Kshs400,000 later. view
• 21 Apr 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want the Leader of Majority to further get thorough clarification: IDPs are IDPs in Kenya. These people were displaced in Kenya by Kenyans themselves. During the 2007/2008 post- election violence, in Molo, for example, people lost their herds of cows and sheep. Their livestock was stolen and their houses were burnt later on and people were moved. At the same time, the same behavior exhibited itself in Mandera, Wajir, West Pokot and Turkana and at the same time, we decided to kill that behaviour which is cattle rustling. This bad habit is by Kenyans against ... view
• 21 Apr 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, fortunately, this answer does not talk about post election violence. It talks about Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), who include cattle rustling victims. view
• 21 Apr 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as we correct what Sen. Wetangula said, maybe we should form a select Committee to work on it. view
• 21 Apr 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I thank my Chairman, Sen. Billow, for the detailed response regarding what is happening in our counties. However, he has just presented his answer like one could give information and it has not solved what I asked for. I wanted to know clearly whether there are Kenyans who entered into contracts with the 47 county governments and assemblies to carry out projects and supply goods. In the middle of their business, some have ended up not being paid at all. This could either be as a result of a governor or whoever is in charge changing ... view
• 21 Apr 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, this one is even worse than the National Bank of Kenya (NBK) that we are talking about. It is touching on so many Kenyans and it is so serious. view
• 21 Apr 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am going there. The Principal Secretary (PS), through the Chairman has acknowledged that the Public Finance Management (PFM) Act and the Integrated Financial Management Information System (IFMIS) do not allow county governments to enter into commitments without the necessary budgetary provisions. Now that you know that they have gone into commitments, what steps will you take because they are already in those commitments? Another clarification that I am seeking is; you have said that their Kshs30 billion is lying at the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK), where you suspect that this could be the money ... view
• 21 Apr 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, thank you. Lastly, the National Treasury has said that suppliers are urged to report such cases to the National Treasury. What is the procedure for each of them to raise this problem so that they can be paid? Do you want these debts to be categorized per county, and who do they send it to? Is it directly to the National Treasury or is there a stopover where they have to send it through? view
