• 8 Jun 2022 in National Assembly: through the entire State departments. First, is the delay in providing necessary documents that the Office of the Auditor-General requires to complete the audit. view
• 8 Jun 2022 in National Assembly: Second, is the general poor response to audit matters raised by the Office of the Auditor- General. However, we must note that in the fast few years, queries have continuously reduced. The measures that have been put in place through the Public Finance Management Act plus the fight against corruption, and strengthening of the procurement process, are now starting to bear fruits as evidenced by fewer audit queries in the subsequent years. However, we continue losing money and the debate that preceded this one concerning university students in private universities is a good example of how we lose money through ... view
• 8 Jun 2022 in National Assembly: I trust and believe that the next Government will continue to impose more stringent rules and regulations to ensure that there is prudent use of public funds and that there is value for our money. view

• 8 Jun 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I support. It is a matter of concern that has been raised before, especially the wordings of how the Treaty Making and Ratification Act is actually designed and formulated. They bring us the treaties when they have already been discussed and approved such that, essentially, Parliament has only two options, either reject in total or rubber stamp what the Executive has already discussed and agreed. I hope, going forward, we will have a system whereby it is a participatory process that Members of Parliament, in view of Article 95, get involved in the treaty-making ... view

We hope in the fullness of time the Government of Kenya will also have an arrangement with neighbouring countries. I have about 80 of my constituents who have been arrested by Ugandans in Lake Victoria and have been slapped with heavy jail terms and fines.

• 8 Jun 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for this opportunity to contribute to the amendment Bill on the Floor of this House today. view
• 8 Jun 2022 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, payment of taxes is a responsibility of every citizen in any jurisdiction or any country. That is why all governments have a body mandated with collecting and disbursing of collected taxes. KRA is proposing to change from KRA to KRS. This is indeed what we call changing the forest but the monkeys remain the same. We just hope and pray that the monkeys do not remain the same as they change the forest. We have the responsibility to pay the taxes. Indeed, KRA needs to change its mindset, from an authoritarian organ to one that serves ... view

• 17 May 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Motion. The fight against corruption will remain the cornerstone that will save this country. This country has enumerable resources, but we have been unable to take-off because of ethics and corruption issues. Before I make general comments on this matter, I want to draw the attention of the House and support the sentiments raised by the incoming Governor of Trans Nzoia County, Inshallah .
