• 12 Oct 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, knowing Sen. Cheruiyot very well, we have been friends and partners in many things in this House. However, none of them has been about grabbing other people’s things. I suspect Sen. Cheruiyot is a little bit envious and jealous about my company on this side. Perhaps that is what he referred to. Otherwise, I do not see any reason why Sen. Cheruiyot would accuse me of grabbing anything that does not belong to him. Sen. Lemaltion does not belong to Sen. Cheruiyot. So, when she sits next to me, Sen. Cheruiyot, should be calm, chill out. ... view
• 11 Oct 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, this Motion requires us to express thanks of the Senate for the exposition of public policy contained in the Address of the President. The key thing there is exposition of public policy rather that the politics contained in the Address of the President. The drafters of our Constitution envisaged that at one point, you might have a President who decides on what to tell Parliament away from the details of the Constitution and therefore in Article 132 of the Constitution, besides requiring the President to address the opening of every new Parliament, it mandated the President to ... view

• 11 Oct 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we did not hear much about the President’s plan of unifying the nation and ensuring that national values and principles that are laid out in the Constitution are observed. I hope that when the President comes for his first formal address to Parliament, he will be true to his calling as the symbol of the national unity and refrain from throwing barbs at his opponents, and will see himself as the father of all the 50 million Kenyans. Nobody in this country should be punished for their political choices. I am proudly on the Minority Side ... view
• 11 Oct 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do not want to use the proverb of dry bones and old women because it has been used before in this House; that, they become jittery when old bones are mentioned in a proverb. I was encouraging the House and nation that we must have a proper plan for national unity. It is not just in the proclamations that the President makes. It must also be reflected in the proclamations that are made by his Deputy as well as his troops – those who form part of his administration. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in exposition ... view

• 11 Oct 2022 in Senate: We asked ourselves whether in our assessment of savings, we are only focusing on the formal and forgetting about the informal. Where I come from, our people save in form of livestock. I schooled from the proceeds of livestock. Whatever little thing my father built, either rental or commercial properties, was simply because he kept cattle. At maturity, he would send us to the market to liquidate cattle and convert to cash. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there are those of us from Northern Kenya who own herds of camels. They might be wealthier than many of us who keep money ... view

• 11 Oct 2022 in Senate: up with the Warehouse Receipt System Bill in this House. It has not been implemented because the grain in a farmer’s warehouse in Kitale can also be looked as savings. Secondly, on paragraph 51, the President talked of the Senate Fund. Today, I was a bit disappointed to encounter Committees in the Order Paper. One of the things we would have prioritized was the Monitoring and Evaluation Select Committee. I have been in this House and part of these conversations. We came up with regulations and proposed that we get a Kshs1 billion fund. We came up with purposes, administration ... view
• 11 Oct 2022 in Senate: Let us have a bipartisan position on these matters. If they are affronts to devolution, it does not matter whether the President has good intentions or not. Good intentions are not bankable. What is important is the fidelity to the Constitution. view
