I say this with a very heavy heart, that the children of the poor in this country are now going to be brought down by polio, tuberculosis, diphtheria, tetanus, and all of them, which are preventable. The medical profession had been able to put into the past. My second comment is on the matter raised by the Senator for Machakos County on the status of various stadiums in her county. I remember on 1st January this year, six months ago, the President toured the Bukhungu Stadium and invited the contractor to come on site. It is amazing---"

"content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity. I want to comment on the statement made by Sen. (Dr.) Murango, the Senator for Kirinyaga County, regarding the reduction of milk uptake from Kirima Dairy, Slopes Dairy by the Meru Central Dairy and KCC. The reduction by the Meru Central Dairy is very drastic, from 30,000 litres a day to 15,000 litres a day. The reduction by KCC is from 75,000 litres to 25,000 litres a day. You can only imagine what is happening to these farmers and what they are doing with the excess supply of milk. Although Sen. Joyce Korir does not want to hear anybody mentioning Murima, I want to remind her--- I say this because this is something that is happening in Murima--- We are elected to represent our different individual counties. If I am elected to represent Murang’a, I have to speak for the people of Murang'a and the Senator for Turkana can speak for the people of Turkana, even as we look at matters nationally. We hope that this is not a scheme to then impoverish the people from this particular region. It is also very important that we deal with the matter of the import of milk from Uganda. We should not expose our farmers through the importation of milk from Uganda. I also want to comment on Sen. (Dr.) Murango’s second statement about the recent directive by the Ministry of Cooperatives to pay coffee farmers directly from the Nairobi Coffee Exchange. This is something that, if implemented, will kill cooperative societies and small-scale farmers---"

"content": "I thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I stand to comment on the Statement raised by Sen. Agnes Kavindu, the Senator for Machakos County, concerning the construction of stadiums in Machakos County. There is a reason the Constitution of Kenya, 2010, under Part II of the Fourth Schedule, allocates the role of construction of stadiums to county governments. This is because it is expected that the county governments will make investments in stadiums to tap into the talent of local youth and engage them in profitable ways. When the committee that will be seized of this statement chooses to visit those two stadiums identified by Sen. Kavindu, I will request that the committee extends that visit to cover the lower eastern region of Kitui, Makueni and Machakos. I say this The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."

Going forward, there will need to be a lot of these spaces, where a lot of these things, including public meetings can happen. It will be important to have these counties invest more of their resources in constructing stadiums in that region. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir---"

"content": "Asante Bw. Naibu Spika kwa kunipa fursa hii. Ninataka kuunga mkono taarifa iliyoletwa na Seneta wa Jimbo la Kirinyaga kuhusu ukulima wa maziwa. Ni kinaya kwa sababu, katika Jamhuri ya Kenya, Serikali imejitolea mhanga kwa kupatiana pembejeo, mbegu za kisasa na mambo mengi. Pia, wanakumbana na mambo ya kiteknolojia. Ni jambo la kuvunja moyo sana ikiwa mambo haya yatafanywa halafu shirika ambalo limepewa jukumu la kushughulikia mambo ya wakulima, haswa maziwa, hawafanyi yale ambayo yanapaswa kufanywa. Nikitembelea wakulima sehemu ya Kirinyaga, Nyeri na hata Laikipia, wale wanaotegemea mifugo, haswa ukulima wa ng’ombe kwa ajili ya maziwa, maziwa yao yote haiwezi kuchukuliwa na shirika la KCC. Vile vile, baada ya kupokelewa na Shirika la KCC, hata kulipwa inakuwa ni kizungumkuti. Vile vile, bei ambazo Serikali iliwaahidi kuwa lita ya maziwa itakuwa ikinunuliwa kwa zaidi ya Shilingi 50. Inakuwaje kila wakati ni matatizo. Tunaomba kamati inayohusika na kilimo ambayo itashughulikia jambo hili walivalie njuga na wamuite Waziri Mutahi Kagwe, aweze kueleza kwa sababu alipochaguliwa, kulisemekana yeye ni mtu aliyebobea na ana ujuzi. Sisi tunataka kuona ujuzi wake akilipa wakulima wa maziwa kwa wakati ufaao."
