• 22 Dec 2021 in Senate: Asante sana, Bw. Spika. Ningependa kuungana na Maseneta wote kukushukuru kwanza kwa kazi nzuri huu mwaka wa 2021. view
• 22 Dec 2021 in Senate: Bw. Spika, nashangaa kwa nini Sen. Olekina aliye shindwa kabisa kuongea Kiswahili anacheka. Leo ni siku ya maana sana kwa sababu tumeamua tutaongea Kiswahili kusema asante. Shukrani ya kwanza ni kwako Bw. Spika. Shukrani ya pili ni kwa Panel yako na tumefanya kazi nzuri. Shukrani ya tatu ni kwa sisi sote Maseneta. Tumefanya kazi nzuri sana mwaka huu wa 2021. Bw. Spika, leo ilikua siku nzuri sana kwa sababu tulivunja rekodi. Kwa kura, tulikuwa na Maseneta 30 kwenye mtandao na ndani ya Bunge. Ningependa kuwashukuru sana kwa sababu walituheshimu. Tuliitisha Kikao hiki kiwe Kikao Maalum, na tukakuja sote. Nina washukuru ... view
• 22 Dec 2021 in Senate: Bw. Spika, la mwisho ni kutakia kila mtu heri, fanaka na Krismasi njema, sio tuu kutakia Maseneta, bali pia watu wa Kaunti ya Uasin Gishu, wenye walinileta hapa. Nawatakia Krismasi njema na mwaka mpya wa baraka kutoka kwa Mweneyezi Mungu. view

• 16 Nov 2021 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I thank you for giving me the opportunity to support this Bill. I congratulate Sen. Kajwang for articulating the Bill very well. This is a Bill that was introduced to the House in the 11th Parliament but did not see the light of day because of the suspicions that came with devolution. view
• 16 Nov 2021 in Senate: It was very unfortunate for governors to feel that a consultative forum is one that should be exclusive to them; they cannot only consult amongst themselves and dictate to this country. The Constitution of Kenya 2010 clearly articulated that any decision in any level of government shall be preceded by public participation. What the governors did was to reduce themselves to coming up with Bills, laws and the Integrated Development Plan of the county. The governors dictate who can attend the public participation of the integrated development plan before endorsing it but they do not implement it. view
• 16 Nov 2021 in Senate: The biggest problem we have is that when governors do not implement the Integrated Development Plan of the county, the people who were in the public participation forum have no way of questioning the county executive. That has led to very many incomplete projects in the counties. Many governors are leaving very many incomplete projects as they finish their terms. We have had sessions where we have looked at the reports of the Auditor-General that highlight the many incomplete projects. view
• 16 Nov 2021 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, if this forum existed, this country would not be littered with incomplete projects. In many counties, there are many foundations of buildings that were never to be. That is because there is no accountability. The kind of public participation that is done in the counties is short of accountability itself. The forum proposed by this Bill is wonderful. The governors need this Bill to be enacted more than anybody else. They need it to even hold their CEC members accountable. Right now, there are governors who are suffering because of the actions and inactions of their ... view
• 16 Nov 2021 in Senate: I appreciate the former Senator for Nandi County who initiated this Bill in the 11th Parliament and our very own Senator Kajwang who has actualized it. I believe that we should pass this Bill so that the next Senate will do even more. It is shocking that any governor would have opposed this Bill at that time because it is giving them the opportunity to discuss what Senators are discussing. The Senate has offered that during the proposed forum, we can discuss the budget policy statement and allow the county governments to contribute to it in the presence of their ... view
• 16 Nov 2021 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the annual Division of Revenue Bill, which is one of the key Bills of the Senate can be discussed in the proposed forum. If we did that, we view
