  • 18 Sep 2019 in Senate: it ends up in people’s pockets and private accounts. The institutions of governance in this country have badly let down the country. The office of the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP), the Auditor-General, the Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI) and all these institutions that ought to be looking after public resources, not to forget our own watchdog committees in Houses of assemblies and Houses of Parliament. They can do better. There was a county that had 50 different accounts in which they were depositing own source revenue. This is causing confusion so that they can be able to steal the ... view
  • 18 Sep 2019 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I am actually a Member of the Committee. After I spoke and sat down, I remembered that there is a Bill that was brought by the distinguished Sen. (Dr.) Zani that seeks to give effect to all these issues that we are canvassing. That Bill has been dealt with at the Committee level. It is awaiting public participation and then it will be brought to the Floor. George Khaniri, the Senator for Vihiga County should liaise with Sen. (Dr.) Zani. All Members with issues pertaining to the same can also do ... view
  • 18 Sep 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I originated this Motion and I recognize the acknowledgment by Sen. Orengo that, indeed, I did. You may recall yourself sitting in the Chair and saying a lot of strong statements about this process at a time when we were having difficulties. From the onset, I want to advise my nephew, the Senator for Nairobi City County, that the sweetener that he put in the report that he brought here the other day about setting up an ad hoc committee jointly with the National Assembly flies in the face of common sense. This is ... view
  • 18 Sep 2019 in Senate: never worked. I want to persuade my colleague of long experience from West Pokot that his wishy washy issues of the matter--- view
  • 18 Sep 2019 in Senate: His not so convincing views on the matter--- view
  • 18 Sep 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker Sir, I have never known someone with such a solid mind and position on issues as the Senator of West Pokot. As the defender of counties, their governments and their people, this House cannot sit and watch when money is being taken away. You remember we started by paying Kshs3.5 billion. We moved to Kshs5 billion, then Kshs9 billion and now we are back to Kshs6.4 billion, in a fixed term contract. Where are the addendums to this contract for variations of these figures? I want to salute the Chairman of the Committee of Finance and Budget. ... view
  • 18 Sep 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I agree with Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. that if you are fainthearted, jerk-kneed and wish-washy; if you do not know whether you are going or coming you should opt out of this Committee. view
  • 18 Sep 2019 in Senate: This Committee will be like the Committee on Maize which we co-chaired with Sen. (Prof.) Kamar - the Senator for Uasin Gishu County. The distinguished Senator of Bomet and Sen. Were were members. At that time, I did not know Sen. Seneta well but her conduct in that Committee raised my appreciation of her a notch higher, as a woman of great substance. We want to help this country--- view
  • 18 Sep 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, could I have three minutes? view
  • 18 Sep 2019 in Senate: We want to help this country. Today, we are grappling with medical equipment. Tomorrow, we might outrageously start leasing fertilizer, a one off user. view
