• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: from suffering. Through that effort, one morning at KICC, we had 14 governors who appeared before the Committee. I was happy to learn at that time that Baringo County had no single pending bill. This can be done. Other counties had pending bills in billions. The Finance CS put his foot down and said he was not going to disburse money to any county that did not have a grand master plan on how to liquidate pending bills. Governors from Narok, Machakos and all over came and gave us the road map. We learnt that some governors at that time, ... view

• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: Those who are not his cronies; who compete and get contracts are never paid. We cannot have this. Devolution was meant to change people’s lives. However, devolution is now a nightmare to many people in the counties. I urge the Chairperson of the Community on Finance and Budget to look at what we did in the last year and engage the Ministry of National Treasury and the Controller of Budget. They must put a condition on this governor that if they do not have a clear road map on how to clear pending bills, they will have their disbursement withheld ... view
• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I support this Bill. I am in the Committee on Finance and Budget with distinguished Sen. Farhiya. This Bill has been discussed and looked at very critically through the Committee, and I have no doubt whatsoever that it is a good Bill. It does not seek to introduce anything new. As Sen. Poghisio has said, it seeks to enhance existing efforts, legal structures and institutions to enhance accountability in this country. view
• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: If you look at our country today, I dare say that over 70 per cent of rich people in this country have worked for or are working in Government. None of them can explain their wealth as being a source of their income for working with Government. It is all proceeds of corruption. People get into public offices and do not work for the public, but themselves. view
• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, you will remember the good old days when people used to walk into their offices, leave their jackets on the coat hangers and come back at 5.00 p.m. to pick their coats and go home. The whole day, they were busy roaming around picking money from people they were supposed to be working for, and so on, and so forth. view
• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: This was so much that cutting corners and taking unjust enrichment is now almost institutionalized in this country. It is now like a norm other than an exception. In fact, there are certain situations where people who have been around in the Senate for some time like ourselves, appear to not have the money that the Johnny come lately have are laughed at as being foolish, non-hardworking and innovative. This is because they do not have the capacity and the ability to carry each finger all over and steal everything on their way. view
• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, this is really disheartening. You remember our President telling the country that Kshs2 billion is stolen through corruption every single day. This means that in about 300 working days, we are losing Kshs600 billion to view

• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: corruption. This was from the President, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of our county himself. We also have on record the Government saying that one third of our public budget is stolen, meaning that in a budget of Kshs3 trillion, we lose Kshs1 trillion to fraudsters and corrupt individuals. view
