• 22 Jul 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, is it not possible for us who are in the Chamber to vote electronically, then those online can do the roll call vote? Why do we invest in a system that we cannot use unless there is a challenge with the system? view
• 22 Jul 2021 in Senate: I said yes, but it has no relation to what we have just voted on by acclamation. I just wanted to note that this shows how much this House misses Sen. (Dr.) Mwaura. He used to take his duties very seriously. I pray that he makes a comeback because he was a diligent member of the Speaker’s panel. If he were here, we would not be having this Motion. view
• 22 Jul 2021 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, you almost got it right. I want to join the rest of my colleagues on congratulating Sen. Kwamboka for a job well done. This is a very good proposal. That is why I was among those who protested earlier when there was the Motion for the reduction of time because I know that there is a lot that we can say about this Bill. However, I am good democrat, so I will agree with the common wisdom of the entire House. I congratulate her for this very fair proposal on something that I believe is for the ... view

• 22 Jul 2021 in Senate: You heard Sen. Sakaja mention a project that is being undertaken in Dagoretti South by Hon. John K.J. Kiarie that ensures that children are fed. The children in that programme are mindful of their siblings. They only take perhaps a quarter of the 650 grams of food and take the rest home to share with their siblings. That tells you that as parents, we have failed in our responsibilities and it is now children who are looking out for each other. This is unfortunate and ought not to be the case. I most sincerely hope that once we have passed ... view
• 15 Jul 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank you, for giving me this chance. I sympathize with the people of Vihiga County. This is quite an unfortunate situation that the leaders that they elected into office and entrusted with the affairs of their county are not serving them. The people of Vihiga County have done their part; they have dutifully paid their taxes and all that they expect is services when they go to their county hospitals. Those who work in the various county offices are well remunerated so that when they go to receive the various services that people receive from county ... view

• 15 Jul 2021 in Senate: The Senate, which is the House that has a constitutional mandate and duty to defend devolution and ensure that it is properly entrenched in our country is on notice on how much it has done in terms of being the big brother to our various county assemblies so that we teach them and understand some of these basic things. It is, of course, not within our direct duty and responsibly but under the spirit of cooperation, being that the Senate and the county governments are institutions that are passionate about devolution and expect it to succeed, we need to do ... view
• 15 Jul 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker, for this chance. I congratulate the Committee on Education for this very progressive Bill. This is one upon whose completion, the Senate will definitely hang it in our collection book of Bills that we have passed in this House. You know that the passage of Bills and implementation are two different things, but let us first deal with first things first. Let us discuss it and pass it. The responsibility of ensuring that it is properly implemented lies with the Executive. However, God willing, we shall be here to oversight and ensure that the dream ... view
• 15 Jul 2021 in Senate: I congratulate the team that has worked on this led by Sen. (Dr.) Milgo for this very progressive Bill. Many times we have spoken about the need for us, as a country, to pause for a moment and re-evaluate our education system. I have taken time to listen to the contributions of many of my colleagues. Is it helping us and giving the intended results, or have we missed a point somewhere? We thought that the alpha and omega of an educated population is a society made up of just graduates. Little did we know that after you come back ... view
