• 17 Mar 2020 in Senate: I beg to reply. view
• 12 Mar 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Statement by Sen. (Dr.) Mbito. This is the reason we are in this House. We have to look at the challenges facing this country and advise the Executive on where they should put more money. I carefully listened to the technical details which were given by Sen. (Prof.) Ongeri. It took me back to the campaign period when I was campaigning at a place called Empurputia in Loita Forest. Many people died because of kidney failure in Empurputia. At that time, I asked myself when these people will ever get ... view

• 12 Mar 2020 in Senate: When we stand here, my dear brothers and sisters, it is imperative for us to remind the Government that giving the Ministry of Health money equivalent to five counties for them to develop policy will not help this country. If I listened carefully to what Sen. (Dr.) Mbito said, it appears as if the NHIF is paying more money now in terms of treating for dialysis than ever before. That is solely because there are more renal centres in the country and people are not going there, being diagnosed and they are found with excessive fluid or waste in their ... view
• 11 Mar 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to support the Petition by my good friend, Sen. (Prof.) Kamar. I was going through the Co-operative Societies Act. When I was listening keenly to the Petition as it was being read, I was a little bit confused. I would like clarification on who appointed the liquidators. This is because the Co-operative Societies Act is very clear on liquidation of certain societies. It provides that the Cabinet Secretary may order, publish in the Gazette, appoint a person to be the liquidator of a society, or that has had its registration cancelled, or is exemption receded ... view

• 11 Mar 2020 in Senate: Thirdly, I am also perturbed to hear that the university failed to remit the contributions of the members. Even though we are going after the Ministry, the CS and the financial institution, even the members--- view
• 11 Mar 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I request just 30 seconds to wind up because I have a very important message. The administrators of Moi University should also be taken to task. Why is it that money is contributed to the SACCO and they do not remit it? They are the people who are causing institutions to collapse. We have been dealing with that issue in the county governments, where employees contribute money and even statutory deductions but that money is not remitted. So, this is criminal in its nature. Mr. Speaker, Sir, allow me just 30 more, please? view
• 11 Mar 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is important that in responding to the prayers, the first thing that should happen is that the auction must be stopped. This is because what is happening is quite suspicious. Most public buildings which are sold are mostly undervalued. Unless this Senate stops that action, people who have been contributing money to better their lives will end up languishing in poverty. Finally, Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to join you in welcoming the students from Tangaza University College, where I made an address, and also the staff of the EALA. I played basketball with them ... view
• 11 Mar 2020 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
