Ibrahim Abdi Saney

Hon. Ibrahim Saney (Wajir North, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. If you look at the language and tone of the President’s Address, you realise that it paints a Government that is painstakingly divorcing itself from a dark past. A past of poor economic management to one that may offer...

Hon. Ibrahim Saney (Wajir North, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I appreciate that NG-CDF is duly recognised as the centrepiece for development in this country. It was once anathema and a curse. It was viewed as a conduit for stealing money by Members of Parliament. Today, the only visible...

Hon. Ibrahim Saney (Wajir North, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I, the undersigned, on behalf of concerned residents of Wajir North Constituency and other affected parts of the country draw the attention of the House to the following: THAT, shelter is one of the basic human needs that secure human...

Hon. Ibrahim Saney (Wajir North, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I appreciate the generosity of my senior, Hon. Shakeel Shabbir. I wish to make reference to my colleague, Hon. Wanjala, in trying to indicate that the Government is not serious about the fight against corruption. We have just come...

Hon. Ibrahim Saney (Wajir North, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, as I rise to support this Bill, I am at a loss as to whether we lack laws or it is about political goodwill. The problem is failure to implement the law. Remember, the Constitution is our grand norm. These principles...

Hon. Ibrahim Saney (Wajir North, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me the opportunity. The Penal Code is a very old product of the colonial regime. If you have a thorough discernment of what it entails, you will realise that it is still a colonial outfit. It pushes...

Hon. Ibrahim Saney (Wajir North, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Let me proceed from where I was interrupted yesterday, in supporting the Report of the Budget and Appropriations Committee. The Budget Estimates entrench equity and sustainability in both tax and expenditure. This was first and last seen during Kibaki’s term...

Hon. Ibrahim Saney (Wajir North, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I was saying that we are in a very critical situation in the fiscal management of our nation that was built in terms of tax management, corruption, and wastage since Independence. There has been failure to rationalise the two tiers...

Hon. Ibrahim Saney (Wajir North, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, the current economic situation in the country is not merely a product of simple step, hop, and jump; it is the cumulative product of a process that has been ongoing for years — the COVID-19 pandemic, Ukraine-Russian war, the drought that...

Hon. Ibrahim Saney (Wajir North, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Before I contribute to the debate, I would wish to bring to your attention that catching the Speaker’s eye has become a serious challenge to Members. Those Members who are on top are least considered. This is just for...

Hon. Ibrahim Saney (Wajir North, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Honestly, it is in our rules. I want to contribute to the Motion. I agree with the intent or purpose of the amendment by my colleague. The motorcycle sector is of immense importance to this economy, but it is...

Hon. Ibrahim Saney (Wajir North, UDA) One important aspect the Mover has alluded to is the fact that we must have coordination between county governments and NTSA on the part of the National Government. If we do not do that, we will create more chaos to an already chaotic sector....

Hon. Ibrahim Saney (Wajir North, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. My question is on emergencies we are facing right now following the flooding in Wajir North Constituency. It is cut-off from the entire country. It is not accessible. What is the Cabinet Secretary doing on Buna Bridge which has always...

Hon. Ibrahim Saney (Wajir North, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I read the Report and it brings two perspectives to the fore. One, the credibility, competence and qualifications of Members of Parliament, both present and former. Two, fishing as a livelihood. Outside this House, Members of Parliament have been...
