• 13 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, on the issue of how long a license should be granted, Sen. Poghisio should consider making it annual. This is because when we have a situation where we advertise for a period of time and change and get a new licence, it may not put proper order. Any business entity applies for a licence for a whole year. I would, therefore, request that Sen. Poghisio considers encouraging people to apply for licences for the entire year, so that it can become a business. I see opportunities where young people can venture into graphic designs and then we ... view
• 13 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the day I will see all those advertisements that are put in the main street of Narok out - a signboard after another - I will believe that the county government is making money. As I speak now, if today the distinguished Senator for Nairobi decides to rent space in one of the beautiful malls that we have in Narok, he will just go there and advertise: ―Sakaja Enterprises,‖ without any order. view
• 13 Nov 2018 in Senate: I have to commend a company like Magnate Ventures Limited because I have seen what they have done. You give credit where it is due. In some places they would go and put up very big signage. In one signage all the business in that building will be advertised. Rather, they will an opportunity to lease space. We can learn from Magnate Ventures Limited and use technology to ensure that not only the businesses benefit, but also the county governments. view
• 13 Nov 2018 in Senate: Under Clause 4 (2), it is important for us to add Global Positioning System (GPS) reference to the site. When we introduce the element of using technology, with GPS we can get into Google at any given time, put in the Internet Protocol (IP) address and be able to see what sort of advertisement is put in there. view
• 13 Nov 2018 in Senate: On Part II, Clause 6, we might want to consider the kinds of advertisements which are in high demand. For instance, whenever we have the Safari Rally or Rhino Charge, the advertisement will be put for that particular cause. In Nairobi here we have the Stanchart Marathon. Sen. Poghisio, you might want to consider adding a provision in this Bill that clearly states that when designating the sites to be used for advertisement, the CEC Member will be able to clearly indicate that a particular area is of high demand and charge more. We can then know how much each ... view
• 13 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would finalise by re-emphasising the need of tapping into the companies that use location-based analytics data, so that it is easy for county governments to know how much revenue they are supposed to get. When one gets on Google, at one point, there were issues of privacy being raised. However, in countries that uses addresses--- I lived in 160 North Beacon Street in Brighton. The moment one enters that on Google, it brings up a picture and shows that street. This is how technology will help us. view
• 13 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, with those may remarks. I support this Bill and hope that my good friend will consider the suggestions, so that we can not only put in order, but also make some little money. It is all about money. If our counties can generate more revenue, we can reduce the amount of debt that we have in this country. The reason we are borrowing is that you will find counties such as Tana River, for lack of a better example, a few years ago was only collecting Kshs26 million a year, yet they are being allocated up to ... view
• 13 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I support. view
• 8 Nov 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. On behalf of the people of the great County of Narok, I wish to also welcome the young girls. I had an opportunity to meet them earlier. In this delegation, I am sure there is Megan, Michelle, Juliet, Angelo and Cheptoo. They are the future of this country. I had a good time with them. I encouraged them to know their leaders, especially Senators because one day they too will be here representing future generations. We are here to work for you. The role of this Senate is to defend the interestsof counties. Nairobi County ... view
• 8 Nov 2018 in Senate: disease. We know that her organisation deals with a lot of work. I encourage her to continue doing that great work for this great nation. I also encourage her to continue bringing more students here so that they can see their leaders and know what kind of work they do for them. view
