  • 4 Dec 2018 in Senate: come to this House. Just like Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. has said, a Member of the National Assembly, with capacity and ability to prosecute his Petition in his House has brought it here because he has more faith in this House than probably the House in which he sits. If we will sit on that Petition beyond 60 days, three or six months, then we are also frustrating and embarrassing both the public and ourselves. view
  • 4 Dec 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Mine is a brief point. The Chairperson of CPAIC has said that he has the responsibility to look at the accounts of the offices of the Senators, which is very good. However, could he also check with the administration of Parliament because the remittance is normally not on time? If a person files a return a week late, they have to pay a penalty to the KRA, the National Hospital Insurance Fund (NHIF) and all the other statutory bodies. Could the Chairperson check with the administration of Parliament so that they are ready to ... view
  • 4 Dec 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. Let me also add my voice to congratulate Sen. Farhiya for a very elaborate and well-thought-out report. I seat in the Committee on Finance and Budget with Sen. Farhiya and she is very thorough in whatever she does. The report outlines many issues and challenges but I just want to emphasise the point that Sen. Orengo touched on; that we pass laws and many of those laws we say very clearly that regulations shall be promulgated by various ministries or authorities. In many cases, those regulations and rules are never promulgated. Sometimes they are promulgated ... view
  • 4 Dec 2018 in Senate: on Delegated Legislation and the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights to help bring up better laws in the country. view
  • 4 Dec 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for an opportunity to contribute to this important Bill. We have had a serious state of confusion with two competing pension funds, the LAPTRUST and the LAPFUND to the extent that they have been competing in supporting activities of the Senate with the hope that they get favor in some legislative structure of sorts. This Bill seeks to sort out this confusion. It is important because the most downtrodden people in this country are the pensioners. I am a son of a pensioner; my father is 88 years old and he earns a small pension ... view
  • 4 Dec 2018 in Senate: How many pensioners in Kenya can travel even from Isiolo to Nairobi or Bungoma to West Pokot, just on a trip to see the country side as a retired person? Those who have been entrusted to look after their money are the ones who boast that they have offices in Geneva, Accra, Abidjan and everywhere else on workers‟ money. This Bill comes at a time when devolution is just setting in and taking route. It is important that employees of the county governments also have a structure of pension that will help them upon retirement, knowing that some transitioned from ... view
  • 29 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Sen. (Dr.) Abdullahi cannot be so right. Institutions that offer public services have just become money mongers. If you go to Wilson Airport today, and drive in for one hour, as you leave, you pay Kshs200. If you go to Nairobi Hospital, you pay. Everywhere you go, it is just a mania now. As a House that defends the interests of the people of this country, we have to rein in all these parties. We travel all over the world and airports offer services. They are not an impediment to travelers. When you go to Heathrow, you ... view
  • 29 Nov 2018 in Senate: Airport, Moi International Airport, Mombasa and other places. It is like they want to drain the last drop of blood from every Kenyan, and we have to stop this. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank Sen. (Dr.) Abdullahi, the Senator for Wajir, for bringing this request for a Statement. I hope that the Committee will interrogate every public institution that is making it so difficult for the ordinary person in this country to operate. view
  • 29 Nov 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Our Chairperson, Sen. (Prof.) Kamar, is out of the country. I wish to give the Statement, relating to the activities of the view
  • 29 Nov 2018 in Senate: Committee on the maize crisis on her behalf--- view
