• 24 Mar 2022 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr Temporary Speaker, Sir. I am young and that is probably the reason I could pick on this. Is it in order for the good Senator for Embu County, who served in the former Parliament, to refer to the Majority Leader as Leader of Government Business? The right term is the Senate Majority Leader. In this House, we have got two sides of the divide; the Majority and the Minority. If the new term is going to be Leader of Government Business, then we should actually change from the term Senate Minority Leader. Thank you. view

• 24 Mar 2022 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, a point of clarification is very important. The distinguished Senator has just clarified that Parliament is not an extension of the Executive. In the context that he is making his submission, I made it clear that it was the Senate Majority Leader. That business does not belong to the Government. That business belongs to this House because the issue of revenue is not a matter that is decided by the Executive. It is a matter that is decided by the two Houses of Parliament. I am very firm on that because it is our business as ... view

• 24 Mar 2022 in Senate: I am an extremist when it comes to the issue of context. In this matter, he is the Senate Majority Leader. He is not presenting the business as being an extension of the Executive. Let us clarify that. view

• 24 Mar 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I want to inform my good Senator from Kisii, that the Kshs39 billion which is sitting in National Treasury is being delayed from being dispersed to the counties because of actions of the National Assembly and this House not agreeing to mediate on the version of the conditional grants to release the money. In addition, Conditional Grant Bill is Senate Bill because we are the ones who pass County Allocation of Revenue Allocation. So, it will be important for him to call upon the other Members of the National Assembly from Kisii and Nyamira ... view
• 24 Mar 2022 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I rise on a point order on statement of facts. The same point of order that the good Senator for Nairobi used. This is Standing Order 100. I want some clarity here. Is it in order for my good friend, the Senator for Nyamira, to state that IBEC came up with the figure of Kshs370 billion? If I remember well, we debated this matter 11 times, when we had different figures. Sen. Sakaja, of course, yours truly the Temporary Speaker, Sen. Kinyua, and I were Members of the Mediation Committee comprising ... view
