• 16 Mar 2023 in Senate: by our predecessors. Back when we were young and even for those who are much older, tree planting and generally being mindful of littering the environment, is something that they were accustomed to. Unfortunately, one of the ugliest scenes that you will see is a well cultured, properly educated, very wealthy and sometimes intelligent looking Kenyans, behaving in a stupid way when it comes to matters of environment. Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is not unusual to drive down Kenyatta Avenue and see somebody open the window of a brand new Mercedes or Range Rover; and throw out a trash of ... view
