• 10 Apr 2025 in Senate: From the onset, I wish to thank the Chairperson and his Members for addressing the matter in Trans Nzoia County, which has been simmering between the deputy governor and the governor. However, as things stand today, despite the efforts of the Committee to resolve the issue, we are witnessing a pushback against the progress the Committee had already achieved. Regarding the roles of deputy governors and governors in counties, there is a need for each party to clearly understand their responsibilities. These tensions are often precipitated by political partnerships formed before elections. Some deputy governors feel they are co-governors with ... view
• 10 Apr 2025 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I have not rented my brain to Sen. Orwoba to think or stretch her imagination on my behalf. The attempts to use the Floor of the House for media and publicity is ruining debates in this House. I have not mentioned the name of Hon. Cleophas Malalah. I do not know what super interest Sen. Gloria Orwoba has in Hon. Malalah and his own problems. I knew what I was saying. I did not mention any name--- view
• 10 Apr 2025 in Senate: Thank you very much, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I would like to finalise on the issue of governors and deputy governors in the counties. view
• 10 Apr 2025 in Senate: What we are witnessing in some counties is an issue of people failing to perform duties of that office and trying to compete for one office.

I urge deputy governors who are in political partnerships with their governors to win elections, to satisfy themselves with the position of deputy governors and work with their governors. When governors finish their term in office, ... view
• 10 Apr 2025 in Senate: that have been assigned to the deputy governors. They should perform the roles and responsibilities that have been given to them. Governors must ensure that deputy governors have their resources. Deputy governors' vehicles not being serviced and fueled and their drivers not being paid allowances are very primitive ways of dealing with matters. If a governor and deputy governor have a problem, they should have a sit-down and leave the operations of the officers to run while they address their problems. I thank the Committee on Devolution and Intergovernmental Relations for the work they have done. That Committee needs to ... view

• 9 Apr 2025 in Senate: On a point of information, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 9 Apr 2025 in Senate: I want to inform Sen. Kinyua that protection is not necessarily an electric fence. view
• 9 Apr 2025 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have a question to the Cabinet Secretary, which we may not get an answer today because the issue is not closely related, but it endangers our forests. There is a plant called cuscuta that destroys the very trees that we plant. If it is not checked, just like the mathenge plant that Sen. Dullo talked about, it will become a disaster. We have seen the destruction that it is causing. What is the Ministry doing? Is there a chemical that can be sprayed, or how can we get rid of that parasitic plant that is ... view
