Sen. WambuaWe must empower this county government and other counties at border posts to be able to generate revenue from these trucks. The argument that we are making business too expensive is a lie. Let county governments create parking lots. Let these trucks be taken off the roads to the...

Sen. Wambua Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Allow me to take this opportunity to congratulate my sister and colleague, Sen. Tabitha Mutinda, for the role that she has been appointed to serve in the board of the IMF and World Bank. This speaks volumes about her as a person and...

Sen. Wambua What is out of order now?

Sen. Wambua Mr. Speaker, Sir, you know it is a good thing when a Senator admits laziness because I just said we should find innovative ways of helping the County Government of Busia collect some revenue from these trucks. Truth be told, these trucks interfere with business in Busia Town....

Sen. Wambua I have not made a ruling; I am just giving an opinion. If you find my opinion unpalatable, when you get your chance, give me your opinion. Maybe you do not even have an opinion, Senator for Uasin Gishu. The second issue was on the sale of strategic...

Sen. Wambua Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I heard the Senator for Kakamega saying ni sawa; it is a very heavy statement. It speaks of a House that has just given up. You know, whatever happens, happens. If it does not happen, it does not happen. Mr. Speaker, Sir, you...

Sen. Wambua Mr. Speaker, Sir, have you seen Sen. Karen Nyamu and the way she is dressed today, walking into the House with one side of the jacket worn and the rest hanging loose? We can forgive; there is no problem. However, Mr. Speaker, Sir, you must enforce rules in...

Sen. Wambua Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I support the statement by my leader; the Senate Minority Leader, Sen. Madzayo, on the state of schools' infrastructure in Kilifi County. When Sen. Madzayo speaks about the dilapidated classrooms and school infrastructure in most of the public schools in Kilifi, he speaks for...

Sen. Wambua Mr. Speaker, Sir, my question is to counsel Mutuma, who has been here many times. He is not new to the impeachment process or the goings-on in the Houses of Parliament. The only way the outcome of a vote is known to Members is through the declaration of...

Sen. Wambua Mr. Speaker, Sir, I request the witness to look at me straight me in the eye. They call me Bishop in this House and I have heard you say that you are a staunch Catholic, you brought the name of the God here. In the name of God...

Sen. Wambua Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, every time you mention Moi University, I have more than a passing interest. I am a former student there and Sen. (Prof.) Kamar was my teacher. When the Senator says that she is satisfied with the response from the Cabinet Secretary, I get a...

I fully associate myself with the sentiments of my colleagues on this matter of the Equalisation Fund Appropriation Bill (Senate Bills No.7 of 2025) . Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, your Communication was right that we have already passed that Bill as a...

Sen. WambuaI heard Sen. Omogeni saying it goes in so smoothly, but he also made a rejoinder that he has not tried it. That must all be subjected to some analysis to be sure. The way he explained it seemed like a person who has firsthand experience. “It goes in...
