• 20 Nov 2019 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we cannot accept the census results, knowing that all the planning, sharing of resources and everything else is pegged on the population. I encourage the Speaker to order that the Senate Majority and Minority Leaders lead the House in calling for a Committee of the Whole, to call the CS responsible for the population census, which falls under the Ministry of Treasury and National Planning, to explain all these anomalies. It is not out of nothing that every direction in the country is complaining. view

This is a House that does the allocation of resources to counties. The only dark cloud that befell this House is when Members were tricked into voting to open the debt ceiling, two weeks ago, but yours truly, stood firm and said, Kenyans are overburdened with debt.
