  • 25 Sep 2018 in Senate: Lastly, the Senator has told us that this investor is making a million dollars a month. Our distinguished former colleague, Gov. Sang, is in the Gallery. One would be interested to know how much of this money is being given to the County Government by way of either taxation, honorarium or whatever form you call it, for the local community and the county development programmes.

  • 25 Sep 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, is it in order for the Senator for Kakamega to continue using terminologies interchangeably as if they mean the same thing? I think we should correct the HANSARD. Mining is not trading and trading is not mining. We cannot, therefore, say that when we talk of mining we mean trading and vice versa. view
  • 25 Sep 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. This is a poorly drafted Bill and it cannot stand as it is. I say so because petroleum is a very dangerous finding for any country.

This is very myopic because there is oil coming up in Lamu, Garissa and other places. Will we engineer a new legislation to meet the ... view
  • 25 Sep 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, I encourage that as we carry on with the debate, because of the constraint of time, I share the views of Sen. Orengo on the particular Clauses because I had also flagged them out. I do not want to belabour what has been put on record. view
  • 25 Sep 2018 in Senate: I urge that this House recesses and retreats to look at this Bill and bring a law that will cover any oil discovery anywhere in this country, rather than solving the Turkana problem. I beg to contribute. view
