• 12 Mar 2020 in Senate: of about Ksh4 billion. Then within a month, a report was released saying that they had decided to revise and would no longer compensate anyone. They waived off the entire Kshs4 billion of compensation. However, when the Committee inquired why they did away with the compensation, they said that they had scaled down the project. However, this was an engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) project signed at Kshs18 billion. They scaled it down so that they did not need to compensate anyone, but the cost of construction remained the same. It is unbelievable that one would say that they would ... view

• 12 Mar 2020 in Senate: all those kiosks, cleared the road and called them illegal occupants. Those are men and women with families and children. That became the end of the story.

• 12 Mar 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, we also got in touch with Busia County which is just nearby and we made recommendations.
