  • 19 May 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I also want to welcome Members of Kajiado County Assembly. I know that they are privileged to be here to see Senators debating. They will also learn more in Committee sessions. I would like to ask them to talk to their other committees to get a good example from what is happening here. They should also come and learn what is happening here. view
  • 19 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank Sen. Hassan for his idea of bringing this debate into this House. Since 2013 after the election, we know very well that this House had voted for a lot of money to go to the counties. I believe we had a problem of reducing the budget, from what we had proposed, of about Kshs238 billion to Kshs210 billion.

  • 19 May 2015 in Senate: I was saying that it is very important for us to make sure that there is civic education so that the role of Senators is well known. It has even forced me to go into the local vernacular radio station so that I can educate the Maa people about the role of Senators. Due to that, many people have called me and told me that they now understand that my role is to make sure that there are funds in the counties and also that the counties are protected. We should urge the Constitution Implementation Commission (CIC) to do civic ... view
  • 14 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, let me from the outset support the Bill. This is a very good Bill. The Bill tries as much possible to make sure that it is in line with our new Constitution where we have the devolved governments and procurement becomes very important. This country is suffering from insecurity and corruption. Corruption starts at the procurement stage. The Bill has tried as much as possible to address how corruption can be fought. Also, we have seen that other than bringing equity, fairness and getting value for money, we are also seeing a case where our citizens ... view
  • 14 May 2015 in Senate: Hon. Senators, I will defer order Nos.11, 12, and 13. I now order that we go to order No.14. view
