• 4 May 2021 in Senate: Nonetheless, Madam Deputy Speaker, I support the Bill. view
• 29 Apr 2021 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 29 Apr 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise on a very important matter of health which affects all Members in this House. You have just seen the Senate Majority Whip walk in with a welder’s helmet; some glass kind of thing. Is that the right attire for this House and is he fit to be part of this Assembly today? view
• 13 Apr 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker, for the opportunity to contribute to the debate. I join my colleagues in welcoming Sen. A. Haji to the House. I also want to thank the Committee on Finance and Budget, led by Sen. Kibiru, who I know was running the Committee from a not so comfortable bed. I wish him a quick recovery. I also want to thank someone who participated in the public participation exercise; a young Kenyan called Robert Wakhungu Sakwa. He appeared before the Committee on Finance and Budget and provided his views on the Division of Revenue Bill. We need ... view
• 13 Apr 2021 in Senate: The formula that we adopted was progressive, service oriented and each county is going to benefit from the 17 per cent increased allocation. However, we must be careful of the paradox of plenty, which simply states that the more resources you have, the poorer you become. The County governments must resist the temptation that this is the time for the outgoing governors to erect statues and monuments and to come up with prestige projects in the name of legacy just because they have and extra Kshs50 billion. view

• 13 Apr 2021 in Senate: I am the Chairperson of the Committee on Devolution and Intergovernmental Relations and one of the issues that we want to put on the table is that time is ripe for a national budget and economic conference. In that conference, the national Government and the county government can have a convergence of budget priorities. A lot of the county fiscal strategy papers and the resulting budget were done on business as usual basis. Covid-19 has had a very biting impact on small businesses and it has disrupted livelihoods across counties. Kenya is a unitary state and the government, at all ... view
• 13 Apr 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I support. view
• 3 Mar 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to congratulate Sen. Kasanga because she never brings any matter to this House in vain. The Statement that she read was full of statistics and data that most of us are, probably not aware of. I do hope that the issues that she has raised will be given importance. I am suspecting that the same way she came up with the Mental Health Bill, this Statement would lead to some piece of pioneer legislation that will further entrench the rights of children to be free from abuse and all sorts of discrimination. Mr. Speaker, Sir, ... view
• 3 Mar 2021 in Senate: Sometimes, many of us wish that our children would grow up in the village where we grew up. I know that many of us here, if you tell someone to go and hunt an antelope or a rabbit, they will do so and bring it home. However, tell our children to do that, they are clueless. So, let us discipline our children, let us train them, but let us not cross the line of abusing them. Having children working in farms for legitimate reasons in a peasant economy is not abuse. It is only abuse if they have to work ... view
