However, is she in order to allege that the Committee has allocated Kshs62 billion, yet the figure is calculated based on what the Constitution states? It is imperative that we provide facts. When you hear that the Committee has allocated Kshs62 billion, it is not. It is imperative to come out clearly because the HANSARD will bear us witness. She should be very clear on the total amount that has already been disbursed scientifically. It is that simple. view
• 7 Aug 2024 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, may I repeat what I was saying. I rise on Standing Order No.105 on statement of facts.

• 7 Aug 2024 in Senate: However, it does not take care of the welfare of the teachers. Secondly, my colleague is also amending section 38 of the Act by adding section 2(a) of that 38, which is essentially saying that - when the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) is considering or county Governments are considering adding revenue, they should not come out arbitrarily but look at issues such as inflation, minimum wage and cost of living.

• 6 Aug 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Statement by my dear sister, Sen. Miraj. As I support this Statement, I call upon the Chairperson, Prof. Nyabundi, and the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Mr. David Njengere, to think about digitising all certificates for all former students. view
• 6 Aug 2024 in Senate: Once you digitize, then it becomes a very simple process for you to print a copy of your old certificate.
