While there are advantages of being an open society where people can benefit by doing flourishing business in your country, I think there should be some level of balance. I am not advocating for the extreme of it where you stop non-locals from setting up any businesses in our country, but ... view

  • 3 Aug 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, a few weeks ago, we had a discussion somewhere with colleagues, Senators. We were told that part of the reason why it is very difficult to punish the people that are pouring raw sewer into Nairobi River is the fine.

  • 3 Aug 2021 in Senate: for somebody who pours raw sewer into a river like Nairobi River is Kshs500,000 or a maximum of six months on jail. They are not even afraid. They tell the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) to please issue the notice because they know what the law says. At the end of the days, they are fine with it because of some of these legislations that we make. I really want to convince Sen. (Dr.) Zani that we need to raise the amount of the fine of a bit. When you consider the communities that you want to protect, some of ... view
