• 5 May 2020 in Senate: consistent. The militarisation of a civilian government in a county government is the worst form of violation and overturn of our Constitution. I want to warn this House. You may not agree with the Governor or the leadership of Nairobi City County, at the moment. Tomorrow when we become governors and a worst president is in office, all our counties will be militarised and taken over by force. It must be known by the people of Kenya that I, Kipchumba Murkomen, am totally opposed to the manner in which Nairobi is being run by military men and many more being ... view
• 5 May 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as the Senate Majority Leader, I have said over and over again, that this House is called the Senate.

• 5 May 2020 in Senate: All over the world, whether you are elected by the party that forms the Government or not, your responsibility is to oversight the Executive. In many counties, including mine, there is no minority side. Do you want to tell me that there is no oversight of Elgeyo-Marakwet County because everybody was elected on Jubilee Party? Please give us a break! We are Parliament and everybody here has a responsibility to oversight the Executive because we are not the Executive. view

• 28 Apr 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in conclusion, I would like to urge this House to be vigilant on the use of public resources. An emergency is one of the ways that many Government agencies use as an excuse to flout procurement processes. They end up taking shortcuts and enriching individuals at the expense of the people.

That accountability must be achieved as a nation. So, ... view
