Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, when I opened, I talked about mathematics coming from mathematics and one plus one not always adding up to two and circumstances where one plus one just remains one, I was pointing at exactly this kind of misbehavior; this kind of misconduct. Maybe we are here...

Sen. Osotsiand he was to come and provide proof under Standing Order No.105, then we should allow him to do that, instead of appearing like to be curtailing him. This is because some of the things he will say will be a cause of discomfort to some people. I have...

Yes, what is wrong with that? Who said I have to bring one document? The Deputy Speaker (Sen. Kathuri) I think you are not ready to substantiate.

Sen. Osotsi[The Speaker (Hon. Kingi) left the Chair] [The Deputy Speaker (Sen. Kathuri) in the Chair] The Speaker (Hon. Kingi) No. Honorable Senator, you are entitled to only one question.

Is there a deliberate effort to make sure that this system is not stalling the issue of essential services in our counties such as drugs, billing for water services, and most importantly, sometimes the procurement that goes with services that are affecting the employees in the county? What is the...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, allow me to congratulate the Cabinet Secretary for the ongoing automation of financial transactions as evidenced by e-GP and eCitizen. Hearing you, you want to make it more efficient and less corrupt, which is a good thing. This is my question; government services are a right. In...

Sen. Osotsi No, they are two different ones.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. My question is very specific. I have listened to the Cabinet Secretary’s response. Despite the fact that there is a requirement to use this e-GP system to procure everything in government, there is the issue of essential services that if they face any glitch of...

Sen. Osotsi Mr. Speaker, Sir, let me also support this Bill. One thing I want to really emphasize is that 12 counties, including my own, were given preferential treatment through the affirmative action component of the new revenue sharing formula. They are June 16, 2026 SENATE DEBATES 20 Sen. Osotsisupposed...

Sen. Osotsilately, the sport has deteriorated, largely due to governance challenges at Cricket Kenya. Something must be done about the leadership of sports organisations in this country.When we thought we had resolved the challenges in football, we were recently surprised to hear of disputes in the Football Kenya Federation (FKF)...

Bw. Spika, asante kwa kunipa fursa hii. Nataka kuchangia kauli iliyoletwa na Seneta wa Kitui kuhusu hospitali. Jambo tunalopaswa kuzingatia sana ni afya. Afya imepelekwa katika gatuzi zetu, lakini ukitembelea hospitali nyingi za gatuzi, kama alivyotaja, unapata wagonjwa watatu hadi wanne wamelazwa katika kitanda kimoja, ilhali wana magonjwa tofauti. Hii...

Sen. Osotsi Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir---

Sen. Osotsiimpression that very little work is being done to provide decent quality health care in our county hospitals.I have particularly read the reports for Bungoma and Kakamega counties, which are counties near Vihiga County or in the same region. It is very annoying that a big referral hospital like...

Sen. Osotsi On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Speaker (Hon. Kingi) What is your point of order, Sen. Osotsi? Sen. Osotsi Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is very unfair for Sen. Cherarkey to belittle my contribution as just a political issue in our county. I am raising these...

Sen. Osotsi Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I wish to comment on two statements. The first is by Sen. Hamida Kibwana on the implementation of an integrated county payroll system. I agree with the national Government’s approach to establish a centralised and integrated payroll system, similar to what has been...
