• 15 Aug 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am not on that one. I had raised that point of order, so that the nation is not misled. Is it in order for the Senate Minority Leader to insinuate to a Senator whom he knows that he is elected in the County of Kiambu, that “if you live in the Republic of Kenya, then you should know that?” He knows that Kiambu is in Kenya. view

• 7 Aug 2014 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Today is, indeed, a very sad day for the people of Kiambu, this Senate, the Republic of Kenya and devolution. It is, indeed, heart-wrenching that the mother, father and protector of devolution has had to turn to pinching the child to enforce compliance. Mr. Speaker, Sir, even more unfortunate, is that the people who are bound to suffer from this move are the innocent wananchi ; the taxpayers who everyday struggle in their businesses and activities. Some of them are farmers who eke out a living honestly. They participated in the elections and elected leaders ... view
• 7 Aug 2014 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I was on my last issue. The last report that was tabled by the Auditor-General to that Committee said that the only county that has complied with the requirements in the whole country, out of the 47, is Kwale County. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 5 Aug 2014 in Senate: Mr. Chairman, Sir, I want to express my dismay at the allocations which have been made to Level 5 hospitals. I want to echo my serious concerns at the allocations which have been given to Level 5 hospital in Kiambu, that is, Thika Level 5 Hospital. The budget of Thika Level 5 Hospital is Kshs500 million.

• 5 Aug 2014 in Senate: Mr. Chairman, Sir, I truly also echo the concerns of Sen. Wetangula. The Chairperson of this Committee needs to listen to the expressions and lamentations of Members of this House. I was expressing a serious issue and I wish to propose like my colleagues that this Committee ensures--- view
• 5 Aug 2014 in Senate: Mr. Chairman, Sir, I was just concluding my contribution. I was proposing as a House, we strongly propose to this Committee to ensure that they initiate the process urgently to make sure that the balance due to these Level 5 hospitals is included. The other issue is that it is also important to send a strong message to the county governments such that even within the allocations they have received, we have seen them diverting other funds to buying houses and expensive vehicles. Could they also contribute to this emergency? This will ensure that no lives are lost, no medicine ... view
• 23 Jul 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the Senator for Mombasa to mislead this House by insinuating that the only side that you can identify Senators of quality contribution is on that side? Did you hear him telling the House that if you want to see Senators who are of distinction, then you look at that side? view
