Senator Tabitha Mutinda has achieved a remarkable milestone following her election to the Board of Governance of the Parliamentary Network on the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

In an official communication to the Senate on Wednesday afternoon, Speaker Amason Jeffah Kingi congratulated Senator Mutinda on her appointment and called upon her colleagues to offer her their full support as she embarks on this new international leadership role.

A watchdog Committee of the Senate has accused Busia Governor Paul Otuoma of doing little to implement the resolutions of the Senate in relation to the financial reports of the county for the 2022/23 financial year.

At the sitting held at the Agricultural Training Centre in Busia town, the County Public Accounts Committee (CPAC) expressed its displeasure with the Governor for failing to take disciplinary action against some of his officers who failed to provide relevant documents to the auditor general in line with the requirements of the Public Audit Act.

The Busia One Stop Border Point (OSBP) has been cited as a key trade gateway that urgently requires expansion to improve efficiency and strengthen cross-border trade between Kenya and neighbouring countries.

The Senate Committee on National Cohesion, Equal Opportunity and Regional Integration has expressed shock over the deplorable state of the Busia One-Stop Border Post, despite the facility generating billions of shillings in revenue annually.

During a fact-finding visit on Tuesday, the Committee led by Chairperson Sen Mohamed Said Chute observed that the border post, which serves as a key trade gateway between Kenya and Uganda, faces severe infrastructural and staffing challenges that have hampered its efficiency.

The National Assembly Decentralized Funds Accounts Committee has lauded the Mbooni Constituency NG-CDF Account Manager for efficiently addressing audit queries, and keeping clean records for the last ten Financial Years.

Chaired By Kitui Central MP Hon. (Dr.) Gideo Mulyungi, the Committee met with Mr. Paul Kimilu who has managed the Mbooni office since 2013 to date to examine Reports of the Office of the Auditor General for FY 2013/2014 to 2022/2023.

The National Assembly has passed the Kenya Roads (Amendment) Bill, 2025. The Bill seeks to amend the Kenya Roads Act to classify public roads into two categories national trunk roads and county roads in line with the devolved system of governance.

The Bill also makes amendments to the Kenya Roads Board Act to ensure equitable allocation of funds to both national and county governments for the maintenance, rehabilitation, and development of roads.
