• 2 Oct 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Cabinet Secretary, there is the issue of revenue collection, the contradictions in the IFMIS system, the problem of Exchequer releases and finally, our debt. What do you intend to do with those three things? I know you have kind of answered them, but I have tried to link them all together.

• 1 Oct 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I would like to congratulate my brother, Sen. Cherarkey, for bringing up this issue. I hope the Committee will sit and look at what we have done with our Integrated Payroll and Personnel Database (IPPD) and what the national Government has done in the Public Service Commission, that is, the individuals that the Government has employed. We need to know how many teachers we have in this Republic. I can tell this House that if you ask for that list, you would not get it. Recently, a Kenyan said that he went to chase for ... view
• 26 Sep 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I stand here to give my accolades to you as the Speaker for having thought it wise to invite the young lady who has made our country proud. Hon. Members of this Senate are all saying how wonderful she is.

I hope that when you go back to Kilifi, you will enable her to continue. I request many of us to participate in ... view

I have heard you answering the questions intelligently and professionally. Keep it up. The responsibility of making sure that Kenya keeps maintaining the name of being a tourist destination is up to you.

It exists in an environment where the public or whoever that is coming to tour in your country, want to ... view
• 25 Sep 2024 in Senate: I was preparing my ground, but because you have guided me, I will go straight to my question--- view
• 25 Sep 2024 in Senate: Madam Cabinet Secretary, do you intend to introduce any touristic route other than the Maasai Mara and people going to the obvious touristic areas? Are you intending to create certain routes, events and marketing strategies to make sure that tourism goes up to Nandi, Kisii, Trans Nzoia and all the other areas where tourists normally do not visit? What is it that you would want your Ministry to suggest that can be done around the lakeside area, particularly in Kisumu, Homa Bay and the Migori county governments?
