• 26 Jul 2023 in Senate: had promised. It is one thing to give an apology and another to send an apology when the House is already sitting. We are wasting a whole morning because of them. It is very important they get the message today that we are not happy. view
• 26 Jul 2023 in Senate: We still have an issue with Cabinet Secretaries appearing in committees. We have had this problem in the Committee of Education. We even have had a problem that has come to this House and was forwarded to our committee on payment of teachers that was accrued between1997-2002. The Cabinet Secretary in the National Treasury was supposed to come. He missed three times. We have fined him Kshs500, 000. He has sent a message that he should be forgiven for the Kshs500, 000 but he has not arrived yet. view

Kenya is losing because if we do not address the issues that Members have, issues that have come before us, we are wasting time. view

We have told them to respond so that we can only invite them if need be. view
• 26 Jul 2023 in Senate: I want to agree with the Senate Majority Leader and all those who have contributed that it is very important that we make our statement clear. However, my suggestion is that we invoke the Standing Order that has a fine so that we fine them and ensure that they start taking responsibility. view
• 26 Jul 2023 in Senate: I thank you. view
