  • 5 Apr 2022 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg for some more five minutes. view
  • 5 Apr 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. Why are we in a crisis? The most dangerous thing is not the lack of fuel but, eventually, the lack of food, if farmers cannot be enabled to produce food. You can imagine what hungry and angry Kenyans can turn to. We want Kenyans, including me, to be told if there is a problem. We can understand. We live in this country and we defend and protect it. However, nobody is going to protect a Government that is acting in such an irresponsible manner. That, even when people are going to near riots, everybody is ... view
  • 5 Apr 2022 in Senate: I have asked questions on the Floor of this House before; the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Burundi, Rwanda and Uganda import fuel through Kenya from Mombasa. They incur the cost of transportation and all the hazards of getting the product to their country. Today, fuel is cheaper in Goma in DRC than in Kenya. You want to say that this is a Government that cares for this country? It does not. view
  • 5 Apr 2022 in Senate: We are now told that something incredibly false, that the war in Ukraine is affecting Kenya’s economy. How? Kenya gets its fuel from the United Arab Emirate (UAE), Saudi Arabia and at times from Qatar. We have no record of importing fuel from Ukraine. Ukraine is not even a major fuel producer and exporter. So, do not tell us that the effects of the Ukraine- Russia war, is the reason for these fuel problems. How do countries like South Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda and Burundi not have the same fuel problems yet we have it here in Kenya? It is just ... view
  • 5 Apr 2022 in Senate: I repeat; it is now the duty of those who speak for the Government, like my distinguished colleague from Isiolo County, to tell us. In law – and you are a lawyer – we say, res ipsa loquitur, where things speak for themselves. Where did the money go? If the money is not there, the irresistible conclusion is that either it has been misapplied, misappropriated or stolen. That is the history of this country. Like I said, the President himself is on record that we lose Kshs2 billion daily to theft. I do not know who can stand up and ... view
  • 5 Apr 2022 in Senate: When we see something wrong, we must be able to tell the king that he is naked, instead of praising his suit when he has no suit. This is a naked Government. This Government, if anything, we should pray quickly that 9th August is brought forward, so that we can vote them to go home and show them how to run the country. We, as Kenya Kwanza, are coming to save this country from this morose, irresponsibility, greed, theft and uncaring behavior that does not know that Kenyans are suffering. Sen. Dullo, you can tell this House how many patients ... view
  • 5 Apr 2022 in Senate: The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
  • 5 Apr 2022 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I am told my time is up. If this was a caring and democratic Government, President Uhuru and his Government should tender their resignation and leave leadership to those who can lead the country. That is where we are. view
  • 5 Apr 2022 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. view
  • 5 Apr 2022 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I would expect even the House to call the Deputy Leader of Majority to order. The Majority Leader is not in the House. One would expect that the Deputy Majority Leader, who is the dejure deputy leader of government business, to make a Statement on behalf of the Government on the issue of fuel crisis in the country. What we have heard is very gibberish talk that does not amount to the Government either giving an explanation or defending its position or convincing Kenyans that the genesis of this crisis is this, this is where we are ... view
