• 14 May 2024 in Senate: Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me an opportunity to comment on these two Statements. I will, however, restrict myself to commenting on the Statement that has been sought by the Senator for Kakamega, Sen. (Dr.) Bonnie Khalwale, on the arrest, detention, booking and arraignment of four persons, particularly tuk tuk and boda boda operators. Mr. Speaker, Sir, boda boda and tuk tuk operators, for a long time have been victimised as people who are engaging in a business that seems to be illicit or illegal.

• 14 May 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I wind up, I also want to give my comment and opinion on the Petition that has been laid to the Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs, and Special Fund, which is led by Sen.

Yesterday, there was something that we would like to demonstrate that did not come up clearly in the National Assembly.

What is the growth in the national budget? If it is over Kshs400 billion, how do you send Kshs6 billion to the counties? We cannot keep telling governors to employ more doctors, nurses or Early Childhood Development ... view
• 14 May 2024 in Senate: Secondly, there has not and there shall never be a competition between devolution and the NG-CDF. If anything, the courts have pronounced themselves on the NG-CDF. For the NG-CDF to be constitutional, it has to come to this House, so that we also have our voice. This argument should not be one-sided; that Members of the National Assembly are the umpires and judges on who is working and who is not. Where have they gotten approval that what is working is only the NG-CDF and the NGAAF, but devolution is not working? We want medicine in our hospitals. I sit ... view
