• 31 Mar 2022 in Senate: I do not know how they will rate him in the other position, but in this one, he has done his work in a very commendable manner. We will forever remember his services to this nation through his presence in this House. Mr. Speaker, Sir, lastly, this is a victory for the Senate. The Senate as an institution has struggled to protect the mandate of this House, not for our personal gain as individuals, but for posterity. I know that we still have matters pending in court. I hope that we will succeed in the manner that we have prayed. ... view

• 30 Mar 2022 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you and your party leader are confusing me. view
• 30 Mar 2022 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I need to get clear clarification. What is the import of what Sen. Kibiru has reported to the House? First, the report he is giving us is under which Standing Order? Is it a Statement of a Chair, Personal Statement or Statement of comfort? I do not understand exactly what he is trying to communicate and how we can hold him to account as far as that Statement is concerned. Secondly, I have been a Member of mediation committees and I also served in the leadership of this House. How shall we hold Sen. Kibiru, the Chairman ... view
• 30 Mar 2022 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I asked a very specific question. I know you are consulting my colleague Sen. Kavindu Muthama but there are two things. One, Sen. Kibiru cannot claim to have made statements in the past that have come to be true. Sen. Kibiru came here with Building Bridges Initiative (BBI), and told us he wants to give counties at least 35 per cent. Sen. Kibiru has come back with another Bill saying that we give counties the same amount we gave last year, which if calculated using the BBI standards, will be like 17 per cent of the revenue. ... view

• 30 Mar 2022 in Senate: him a specific question: Is he laying a foundation for something else using this Statement he is giving? The statement on its own might be okay; it is a promise. He did not even need to make it because tomorrow we will come here in the afternoon to receive the report of the Mediation Committee. Why does he feel like he needs to make this communication? I hope it is not tied to us being told: “On the promise of some people who are not in this House and a promise that we cannot rely on, let us do another ... view
• 30 Mar 2022 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am a very serious supporter and fan of Sen. Orengo. I really enjoy his speeches and he has been a friend with a great mind. I feel sad that he decided to retreat to the villages of Siaya County, which I believe is out of sacrifice to go and serve the people there. I would have loved to serve my third term here in the Senate with him, but I wish him the very best. Sen. Orengo knows that I have never considered running for Governor. If I ran for Governor, ... view

• 30 Mar 2022 in Senate: We will realise that even by tomorrow, the decision of the Supreme Court on Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) will have come out. We will realise that all these people who used to preach about BBI and tell us 35 per cent never believed in it because they brought us another Kshs370 billion. Be it as it may, let us at least take something, let us take this Grants Bill tomorrow. The difference between today and tomorrow is 24 hours which is too short for us to be told to let the Chairman of the committee give us a report about ... view
