• 6 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Lastly, the Office of the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission has been given a budget of Kshs2.93 billion. This is the same amount of money that has been allocated to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions and half of the amount of money to the Office of the Attorney-General. What work are these agencies doing? Is it the high time we disbanded EACC or we considered it as a department with the Office of the DPP? view

• 5 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to start by condoling you and your family for the loss of your mother, which happened while we were on recess. I would like to contribute to the President’s Address, which was delivered during the month of May. I will start by recognising what he said in paragraph 13. He said he was aware that there are people in his office who are using public funds for their own benefit. This giant and devil called corruption has been in our headlines, minds and hearts.

• 5 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: I am very happy for the progress made in terms of arrests made and the many files that have been taken for further investigations. However, that having been said and done, as a country, we are tired of situations where we celebrate because public officers resign once a theft has occurred. Whether someone resigns 10 or 50 times, the fact remains that public money has been lost and the gains we should have made with that money in our economy is forever lost.

• 5 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: I am asking, if the police had the files of that theft in 2014, why did they have to wait until it came out in the media so that those people are aligned in court?

Further, the President has directed that all finance officers, accountants and procurement officers be sent home. Around 1,000 of them had their files forwarded for questioning and prosecution. We stand a risk. In as much as I support this move, because ... view
