WHY SHOULD PARLIAMENTARIANS HAVE A SEATING ALLOWANCE??? IS LIKE A TEACHER BEING GIVEN AN ALLOWANCE FOR BEING IN CLASS

This is the caricature that was yelling that the president's term should be extended......... shame on him.

Charges on National IDs should be scrapped off..

Ask Cherargei is this a parliament or a rubber stamp for misuse. Ruto is on record praising mps for good job yet look at the mess we are. This is why we call kk a gang of majambazi

I don't why people don't talk of MCA's as people who have captured the government. It started when Uhuru Kenyatta gave them 5 million for house & car. I am told this money is given without any security given to acquire the assets

I totally disagree with the Senator on public not attending participation forums. At county level last year I went for a public participation forum on the county budget. What happened was the county officials who had the draft budget & the mca's did as follows: 1. came 2hours 30minutes late from the set time they had set. 2. Didn't have sufficient copies of the documents to be read & commented on by the public. 3. They started by saying there was insuffucient time to go through the documents, so they would brief us on the contents and go to the next pp forum they had scheduled! I personally had to tell them, that then it was futile to have called us for the meeting and if they really wanted feedback, give us copies of the docs, we read them & send them feedback by the end of the week. You should have seen the look of shock on the officials as to 'who is this who is insisting on reading...? They quickly discussed amongst themselves and decided, give her the document and an officers email. I did read, give feedback on email AND, THAT WAS THE END OF THE PUBLIC PARTICIPATION & FEEDBACK BEING INCORPORATED IN THE county finance bill. Despite asking severally for the final budget document, until today 2/7/2024. My observation, even at county level, public participation is done by the executive offices as a means of 'rubber-stamping and pardiem (out of office trips!)

Mr. Senator, when will your friend stop lying?

British Mp’s live in normal streets with everyone. Some cycle to work because they work for people……The corruption has killed Kenya

In Kenya its leaders who are thriving while young people are jobless

Corruption and nepotism are the first to be condemned.

This is the pride of being independent this guy has been outspoken about spending on some members

Hefty allowances: Travel allowances-like travelling to UK by MPs to visit Parliament to benchmark catering, sitting allowances, car grants etc. No accountability by county governments, CDF fund, CAS offices, Statehouse renovations.... the list is endless

Let Mps walk.

Let there be a cap on the type of vehicles assigned to government officials. If you want a fancy car, get it for yourself!

Dear GenZ, Najua mko pagumu kwa hiyo siulizi kama hamjambo. Mna mpango na kazi ngumu ya ukombozi wa Kenya, namwomba Mungu Awabariki. The hour of liberation is at hand. The hour of freedom from corruption, youth unemployment, tyranny, exploitation, misrule, mismanagement, incompetence, and impunity has truly arrived. It's jubilee moment when the corrupt must be dispossessed of their ill-gotten loot. Stolen land and assets must be surrendered. Punitive taxes and odiuos debts from thieved trillions must be disowned, and thieves thrown into prison. It's time to take our country back. The youth are leading the way. The rest of us must follow. GenZ, have a successful maandamano. Ruto out. GenZ in.

In addition ask Cherargei to address hefty salaries of public officials and bloated government. Gen z's are watching and they know where the money is largely wasted. The country should live within our means and stop the display of extra vacant lifestyles

Office of women rep, office of deputy governor, CAS, Reduced state departments, prime CAS

Take Enough Photos for ICC Everywhere.

Cherargei's a true definition of a turncourt

and then someone tells the public that he will not employ teachers... that he will not be able to pay some public servants. so why are we paying taxes. tusitishiwe bwana

Why are we not talking about value for money audit.why should government offices be purchasing items at 10 or 20 times the market prices. I believe we can save billions

Imagine how versatile public participation would be via twitter poll / comments or google forms!

Someone tell us the office of Denis Itumbi and Farouk Kibet.

Why should Parliament get budget allocation of 50 billion while judiciary gets less than half of that 21 billion. The state House gets 9 billion same as kiambu County

The day our parliament embraces and understands the doctrine if separation of powers and their roll of oversight of the executive on behalf of Wanjiku then they will make meaning of their being elected bu Wanjiku their boss.

The Scars remain forever and serve as a reminder.

These offices keep multiplying like mushrooms.. there was even a suggestion for the office of the first daughter.. what a joke😂

NOT ONLY FIRST LADY EVEN YOU MPS U MUST DECREASE UA EXPENSES.

the motor vehicle tax was dropped after you people saw that, things were running out of hand not because you had to due to public participation, it has never been done in good faith but a PR to hoodwink Kenyans

The solution is to dissolve parliament so that we can get MPs who are ready to earn not more than 300k per month.

Gathoni Wa Muchomba mp of Githunguri does it very well so public participation is not difficult if as a leader your determined

It wasn't in the best interest of Kenyans, but Kimani Inchungwa's and Zakayo. If they thought so they (Zakayo and Gichungwa) should be admitted in Mathare hospital

What about Charlene's office, Mrs. Riggy G's office, Mudavadi and wife's offices, the 50 CAS? All unconstitutional and avenues of corruption. Then there's the KK MPigs giving and CSs giving their families positions and tenders. Saa hii ndio anaongea akisahau alikuwa anadai Ruto na all elected members waongezewe miaka 7?

Eric ask the senator if he will accept 50% reduction on his salary. If corruption is carved there will be no need for borrowing.

Most of our revenue is spent on super-inflated procurement and payment for non supplies....Ask senator to comment on this

Cherargei you hit the nail on the head. I like your wisely switched on mind. I wish you were the head of the presos adviser.

Eric latiff you impressed during Roundtable with president.Professional journalist.God bless you

I really wonder on how every politician went to school and graduated in two weeks to know the problem with the government.

Parliament decision are being pre-determined in state house that is.the reason why people don't turn-up for public participation

The office of the Prime CS should be scrapped! Mdvd can be CS for Foreign Affairs only which is sanctioned by the constitution but not the former. This office of Prime CS was one of the sources of friction points between President and his DP because Prime CS role overlapped the role of the DP...

occupy spice FM! some of these guests need greetings

Mr. Cheragei can you lead by example and bring a law that actualizes the chapter 6 of the constitution in both letter and spirit

Ask Cherargei why he felt that President term should be extended…. And Do the flowers 🌺 in the office of the wither or shrivel within 24 hours and be serviced Daily …That is all wastage

The senator is saying the correct things but still like the president is doging to answer the question. The question is simple should we trust the parliament? Yes or No period.

We are a digital nation do public participation through the phone

Remove sitting allowance for mps.The SRC recommended the same but the MPS in their arrogance stood it down.Some MPS make technical appearances in meetings and register in order to make money.

No time to be wasted here... No room for dialogue. What we asking are doable and it is just of using common sense.

I like my brother Samson. He is intelligent, eloquent and an exceedingly cunning 🦊 With regard to public participation, he is saying, "you do not come to stop us"

Very very true Corruption is the main pendamic in kenya

From MCAs, Governors, MPs to Senators - you are in position ONLY to serve the interests of those that elected you. i.e. You are the peoples' representatives. If the people, by a substantial majority, and with loud voices, are saying that their 'representatives' are no longer that, then what business do these ladies and gentlemen have remaining in position. Genuine leaders would say, let's go back to the ballot and renew our mandate if we feel we have done right by our people. Not cling to power as what now appears to be the case. Short of this what we have is just 'hot air'.

Very true.

If Ruto was to engage Kenyans on serious matters of cutting government expenditures, probably,he can redeem his image. 1 lower salaries for executive's, cutting it by half. and everyone in the government who earn huge salaries. 2 Abolish completely, political nominations.Nominated mps senators,mca etc 3 The president should cut his presidential escort by half,the same of the deputy,the cs to have only one escort etc. 4 Abolish, Women representative sit, 5 National days like Madaraka,Jamuhuri etc should remain but the President should address the Nation through the television. 6 All government tenders, should be advertised on local newspapers 7 The president should from now on,walk the talk,End Corruption. .......... The least is endless.

Woow i would like to do tea with these senator...a truthful man..

The president kept on bragging the rejected financial bill was the best till the end though previously he admitted it wasn't good and agreed he will cut some of it like the First Lady and the dp's wife etc the guy is a double-speak person and a great liar if he remains in that office he will push the blame to citizens because of the bill rejection so the only best thing is resign he and his dp.

The CAS office must be scrapped off and all sitting allowances be withdrawn for MPs.

No need to say Ruto must go, replace em with what now? Instead pressure parliament to enact DEATH PENALTY law against corruption

Bw.Cherargei,whether the recommendations were through other bills,the financial effects are the same=punitive taxation!!!!

Sure Mr cheragei

This senator is not the best person to advice . He has in the past advocates for extension of president term

Hello, Honourable , Do you remember these words '' when the tine comes, tutawashugulikia""....has the time come?

WHY SHOULD FUEL LEVIES BE HIGHER BY 40% ITS COST?

Admitting on air and being a beast in parliament

Cherargie I am your fan

Even charargei would say yes in making 1st ladys office legal. Maji yamezidi unga

Corruption is 100% bad than Covid 19 im kenya this is what will end Ruto's regime

Kenyans are too busy not to attend public participation because you legislature are not serious at all

Will they return all the money they have received the last two years like the office of mdvd and his wife since the offices they are holding are not in the constitution kindly cheragei answer kenyans that question.

You need the ministry of devolution to be used in public participation. It is easy to access county town halls than for all of us to camp at KICC ballrooms

Mr Cheraregei,you sound mature and open to facts,you as a young person why have you joined the music you don't understand the rhythm nor the beats in the name of my party?

The real power of a revolution..... the senator is more than humble today..they should also drop CDF, let it be handled by line ministries where accountability is guaranteed.

True very true sirens have vanished.

Cherargei is a visitor just arrived in Kenya today and do wondering why Kenya is this corrupt 😊😊

That very true shud be scrabble😮😢😢

You said president apatiwe 7 years muibe vizuri

In, Kenya...you, should count yourselves lucky as a people...in Nigeria..the totality of all of the allowances for "legislathieves"..are more than the budget for a year in Kenya or for kenyans...these so called democracies in Africa,is just a "funnel", to stealing public funds.. simply put.. commiserations, however to the lost, brave Gen z..of Kenya...the, struggle continues 👍💪👊

Why can't these clowns tell Ruto because when others say it, Kelez say they hate Ruto. Useless form of patriotism.

Great senator this is the spirit we need. Cut down on expenses, not more & more taxes. Tax payers have past thier limit businesses & lives suffering

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="323">5:23</a> devolution is what is next for the Gen Z movement.

😢😢😢 soo sad. Why didn't you legislate accordingly b4???!!!!!. Nkt. Your salaries are equally highest in the world while other workers are paid peanuts and many hard working teachers, doctors, law enforcement agents etc can hardly afford a decent meal today while you forcibly mposed senseless and ridiculous taxes on them. Ati housing levy yet thousands of poor workers cant afford food. Nkt. Your salaries must be halved asap to employ the youth. Bure kabisa. You are the causality agents of all these tribulations and you better leave those offices to leaders who want to assist the masses. Looting, embezzlement, wanton plunder of public coffers and gross runaway corrupt in this era is extremely high. Taxes are paid heavily but all go to few insensitive people masquerading as leaders. Bure kabisa

Hii ndio mkora ingine ingestahili kutembelewa i remember him saying there will be no removal of even a comma from the finance bill,watu wa nandi hebu msalimie hii mutu msaliti,

Today Senator is very sober in this panel. Waaah

MPs and Senators have adequate structures and networks, which they used for campaigns. They should use the same structures and networks to conduct public participation.

Public participation should also go digital. What are parliament social media accounts???

Representatives should hold meeting in their constituencies, with the people that elected them. That is public participation.

Our Leaders should understand " the concept of delegation of duties." They stop thinking that they know it all. In fact, when they participate in public participation, they guide the Citizens into chorus positive approval

wezi waende nyumbani pamoja na zakayo

😫😫😫😫these parliamentarians needs to go home like yesterday be audited for lifestyle audit.The government needs to be audited, the counties too all the way since inception of county governments for sanity.

It's now clear the political class may have to change some decisions on public participation since decisions reached can have far reaching consequences..eg while they open to common wananchi it can be made digital...or make it a competition such that who give ideas that can have some positivity can win prices/awards..

Church and Funeral gatherings can be pivotal in public participation

We need Magufuli to clean the government

Politicians are double tongued and double faced. Look at the man who fronted war againest the person of retired president😂

Cherargei it would be awesome for you to give solutions, not impossibilities

Your proverb, and excuse me if i do misquote, "those who throw the stone will forget, and the one who gets hit will never forget" If I may, I'll apply such a beautiful proverb to our African people about their actions. They seem to forget that they were hit by the stone. In other words they seem to forget the past .

Passports current charges should be reviewed as they were before.

Who reads newspapers anymore? Public participation should be digital yawa. 😊

what is cherargai saying we cant go to this public participations coz of timing, you doing it from mon to fri i have to go to work

The umbilical cord joining parliament and the executive is the political party. Cut it. Have legislators as independents and parliament will start working.

Senator Cherargei, the laws that passed the finance Bill are still in law and effective... and parliament seems to lie low about it... what happens if once operationalize some of the clauses...

I believe these guys are def. If sanator cheragei doesn’t know how to gauge public sentiment then bring them down to earth. Pay them the meager salaries every Kenyan earns. That way they will be at per with the mwananchi. They will honor what’s on the ground. Let them live on the ground

The parliament should make recommendations to the people/the republic on all bills and laws. Through public participation. The people should make recommendations to the judiciary to act. The judiciary asks the executive for recommendations before acting upon. The executive should go with the majority of the recommendations from the people. The executive simply represents the entire peoples' recommendations by giving recommendations to the judiciary to act
