• 22 Nov 2018 in Senate: I think the Vice-Chairperson can use his position and, in fact, tell you that he can get it within a day. view
• 22 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am not quite certain because this is the first time we are dealing with this matter. Impeachment of speakers would have fallen squarely under the Committee headed by Sen. Kinyua. Therefore, I would have expected a statement to say that the Committee has intervened in the impeachment of Speakers of county assemblies to try and find a method of stopping the impeachments and resolving the disputes. May be those are the actives that I thought would come to our attention because it is something that has been bothering the assemblies and is of concern. I have ... view
• 22 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also want to be very clear about this because your seat and the rest of the speakers is at the pleasure of Members. I do not think we can get into that. When county assemblies are doing their budgets, particularly ceilings, they come to us and insist on increments. The Chairperson of the Committee on Finance and Budget is here and they increased the budget by „x” billions of shillings this financial year. Is it a question of funding, so that we understand whether it is for purposes of running the assemblies? There is an issue ... view
• 21 Nov 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I was not going to speak but after the Senator of Vihiga spoke, I thought I should inform the Members from Kisumu County that, please advise the people of Vihiga and Kisumu not to fight, we have passed the County Boundaries Bill. Please, pass through the Journals Office and collect the Bill. We have set up a method for all of you to live peacefully together with Maseno University so that you do not fight. We have passed the County Allocation of Revenue Bill. Please, look at it together with the Private Public Partnership Bill. ... view
• 21 Nov 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Taita Taveta neighbours Makueni. I am aware of the tremendous issues on land that Taita Taveta faces. It is one of the poorest counties in Kenya but has the best land. It is a land of contradictions; that you have the best mines of Tanzanite and other things, but the community is poor. It is also the land that has got the Tsavo elephants but the people are poor. Mr. Speaker, Sir, my only request to you and maybe the secretariat is whether you could facilitate the Senate Committee on Land, Environment and Natural Resources ... view
• 21 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker Sir, I think you should take the cue from the Chairman, and help this Committee. I have no problem with them but I think this is a matter that has gone beyond their jurisdiction. The CS must be summoned here by you; The Deputy Speaker. That lady should sit here; we do not want stories. The documents that Sen. Wetangula is talking about- I am aware that there are three sets of contracts- must be tabled at the Senate. Two, I am aware that only one governor refused to sign the contract; the Governor of Bomet County. ... view
• 21 Nov 2018 in Senate: million per year and Kshs500 million for the next subsequent years. This is a scandal. Let us make that order. view
• 21 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, on a point of order. view
• 21 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for the good ruling. I thought that the further order would read that the Cabinet Secretary table before the Senate of this Republic the documents that pertain to all the contracts. That must be in the order. It is very consequential because the Cabinet Secretary can come here and give us stories such as she was not told. We have to tell them to come with the documents or not come at all. view
• 20 Nov 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I support this Bill. Just like Sen. Wetangula said, it has taken us quite a while to get to this position. In the recommendations that we made in the Select Committee on the impeachment of Governor Chepkwony, we insisted on regulations that would govern the Public-Private- Partnership (PPP) framework within county governments. view
