• 7 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, could the Chairperson also tell this House and country the following:- (1)Was the disbursement of this money insured? If it was, why is the Government not resorting to insurance where there is absolute failure to pay? (2)Which banks were used to disburse this money, because we know that some politically correct banks, namely, Equity Bank and Family Bank were used to disburse this money? We want to know how much they made as profit out of this money. view
• 7 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker Sir, I am very careful in what I say; I do not speak without facts. I have been in this House long enough to know what to say and when to say it. The Government of the Republic of Kenya, through wananchi and the National Social Security Fund (NSSF), controls the Cooperative Bank. The Government is a critical shareholder in the Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB) and there are other banks in this country which are owned by taxpayers’ money; you and I, and even the complaining Senators. Why would the Government take public funds and channel them through ... view
• 7 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to inform my brother Yusuf Haji, the Senator for Garissa in case he does not know that the money that Equity Bank uses on a programme called Wings to Fly is money from the United Nations (UN) and not from Equity Bank. Not a single shilling of that money is from Equity Bank. In fact, Equity Bank makes a profit out of that programme. view
• 7 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the first point of call should be to require me to substantiate. If I fail, then I can go the route of withdrawing and apologising. I want to promise the Chair that tomorrow at 2.30 p.m., I will be here ahead of even the Speaker and I will put a dossier on this table to show how “politically correct” these two banks are. I will also explain how Minister Amos Kimunya as he then was in Finance, used state money to prop the growth of Equity Bank to where it is. Tomorrow at 2.30 p.m. prompt, I ... view
• 7 Mar 2018 in Senate: Thank you so much Mr. Speaker, Sir. By all means, I will do so with gusto. Let me finish seeking clarification from the distinguished Senator for Mandera, who is the Chair of my committee and works very hard. Could he also, either today or later, bring to this House a complete detail of all Social Safety Net Funds and how they have been disbursed across counties, from county 001 to county 047? The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 7 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have the greatest respect for the distinguished Sen. Mwaura who has been nominated to represent PLWD--- view
• 7 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, some colleagues do not seem to appreciate the rules of debate in this House. I have finished by asking the distinguished Senator either now or later to bring us a list of disbursement of Social Safety Net Funds (SSNF). view
• 7 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, HANSARD will bear me out tomorrow that I already did it. However, I can do it again. view
• 7 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I withdrew and apologised. I repeated it. I want to assure hon. Senators that this House is not for the faint-hearted. This House is for men and women made of steel. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 7 Mar 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker Sir, I was fully aware at the time when I requested for this Statement, and even now, I am fully aware that this matter is in court. As a matter of fact, most of the issues read by the distinguished Senator for Garissa County and Chairperson of the Committee are under contestation in court. To that extent, the Senate Majority Leader is right. However, I want to ask the Chairperson to tell this House whether the Government has suspended the operation of Article 16 of the Constitution. I say so because--- view
