The Senate Committee on Labour and Social Welfare has received wide-ranging submissions on the proposed Public Service Internship Bill (National Assembly Bills No. 63 of 2022), with the Public Service Commission (PSC) defending its centralised recruitment model even as Senators pressed for stronger absorption pathways and broader reform of work-based learning.

National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula led Members of the Parliament and Senate in celebrating the life of Johana Ng'eno, MP Emurua Dikirr, and five others.

In his capacity as the Chairman of the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC), Speaker Wetang’ula commended the Parliament team tasked to organise funeral plans for the victims of the Nandi helicopter crash that claimed the lives of six on board.

The National Assembly has paid tribute to the late Member of Parliament for Emurua Dikirr Constituency, Hon. Johana Ng’eno Kipyegon, following his untimely death in a helicopter crash in Nandi County.

The tributes followed a formal Communication from the Speaker, Rt. Hon. (Dr.) Moses Wetang’ula, who informed the House of the tragedy and reflected on the late legislator’s life, service, and legacy.

The Council of Governors (COG) has intensified its push for a larger share of the Roads Maintenance Levy Fund (RMLF), urging the Senate to amend the Kenya Roads (Amendment) (No. 3) Bill, 2025 to allocate 42 percent of the fund to county governments.

Appearing before the Senate Roads, Transport and Housing Committee, COG Transport, Infrastructure and Energy Committee Chairperson Kimani Wamatangi argued that the proposed 5 percent allocation to counties is inconsistent with both the Constitution and the reality on the ground.

National Assembly Speaker Rt. Hon. Moses Wetang’ula has eulogized the late Emurua Dikirr MP Hon. Johanna Ngéno as a dedicated public servant who defined servant leadership, whose legacy will stand the test of time.

The Parliamentary Ad Hoc Funeral Planning Committee, chaired by Tinderet MP, Hon. Julius Melly, has announced that the late Emurua Dikirr MP. Hon. Johana Ng'eno, and three others will be laid to rest on Friday, 6th March, 2026.

The Committee settled on the date after consultations with family members, the National Assembly Speaker and the Office of the President.
