The Senate Speaker Amason Jeffah Kingi, EGH, has convened a Special Senate sitting on Tuesday.

Through the Gazette Notice dated August 25, 2023, Speaker Kingi appointed Tuesday August 29, 2023 as a day for a special sitting of the Senate.

The Cabinet Secretary for Health, Hon. Susan Nakhumicha, has pledged to constitute a multi-sectoral medical team to review the medical records and needs of the 1998 U.S. Embassy Bombing survivors to see how they can be assisted by the Government. 

At the moment, the bombing attack victims are forced to dig deeper into their pockets to cater for their medical care despite not being at fault for their injuries. 

Today, the Senate Committee on County Public Investments and Special Funds, led by Vihiga Senator Godfrey Osotsi, delved into the issues highlighted in the Auditor General regarding the financial statements of the Lamu Water and Sewerage Company (LAWASCO) for the fiscal years 2018-2021. Lamu County Governor, Issa Timamy, attended the meeting to provide responses to the concerns raised.

Under the stewardship of Senator Godfrey Osotsi, the Senate Committee on County Public Investments and Special Funds (CPISFC) convened today with Kimani Wamatangi, Governor of Kiambu County. This summons was prompted by the Governor's failure to heed an earlier invite from the committee.
