• 24 May 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. We have agreed with the CS that we have a meeting with him this Friday as a Committee, then we will schedule one of the Wednesdays in this House so that he gives us the actual status of the last-mile connectivity across the country. This is because there was even an advert that was put out last week by the Ministry for last-mile connectivity and most of the counties which were going to benefit from that connectivity are those that are already above 50 per cent. Many are below 40 per cent like Elgeiyo ... view

• 24 May 2023 in Senate: get as they do the oil. So, I would request the CS going forward to engage closely with the County Government of Turkana and also the people of Lokichar so that they know. This is because when you move the next crude oil, I do not think that they will even have something to benefit from. This is because I believe the investor would want to first--- view
• 24 May 2023 in Senate: Now, I want to ask my question. The CS informed the House that they are exporting the crude oil and we have a refinery in Mombasa that can refine and process the crude that will help the country to generate employment for our youth.

• 23 May 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. From the onset, I support the Bill. I thank Sen. Mariam Omar for coming up with it. The Bill was tabled in the last Parliament. It went through almost all the stages, but it lapsed eventually. I am happy that she has brought it back.

It is unfortunate and that is why this Bill is timely. What has been put as a fine of Kshs1 million for the person responsible---. There are those who sit on the invoices. If they do not pay, the person in charge can be imprisoned up to five years, fined Kshs1 million or both; this could be imposed. This is a serious matter. We cannot continue exposing our people who are working hard to earn a ... view
• 23 May 2023 in Senate: I do not have a problem because this is a former governor. I do not know if his people have issues. view
• 23 May 2023 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I am informed. However, we know very well that a user creates a need. If there is a need, for example, to do a road of hospital or supply medicine, the procurement department advertises then bidders bid. We should not cheat ourselves.
