Sen. (Dr.) KhalwaleMr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the way you are looking at me is like it is a crime to say ‘two-term’. The people who are saying ‘two-term’ are saying they want President Ruto to continue in office and those who are saying ‘one-term’ are saying he has fallen short...

The County Government of Bomet has had issues. I have noted, for instance, that in this particular aspect, irregular payment of salaries and personal allowances is glaring in the report. Over 1,454 officers are paid outside the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Database (IPPD) system. Over 706 officers are paid what...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Let me begin by appreciating the good work of Sen. Kajwang’ in terms of or ensuring fiduciary responsibility.

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale I appreciate that information. It was just out of quick reading of what AI is. When AI came to my attention, I took it negatively because one, that here is a tool that is going to take away jobs and as a defender of the youth and...

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I am sure the Chair did not hear what the distinguished Senator from Vihiga County, Sen. Osotsi, my kid brother said. Karen is not AI-generated. (Laughter) Go ahead and inform him; he has accepted.

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Thank you. I just wanted to acknowledge that AI cannot simulate a surgeon because, as a surgeon, when you open the patient, you go in, you start making decisions once the patient is bleeding to death. The moment you operate, you open a patient, you start to...

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I heard Sen. Boni calling you, Mr. Speaker. Finally, it is good to note that he can potentially see both genders being equally fit to be equal leaders. It is indeed true that the possibilities of AI are limitless. We have had...

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Mr. Speaker, Sir, the matter, currently before the House, is unprecedented in two aspects. I would require that with your indulgence, you guide the House.

Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I would like, before I ask my question, to invite the Cabinet Secretary to respond to this point that the Senator for Kisumu County has raised. I have traveled widely in this country and nowhere in Kenya do you find a structure...
