• 15 Jul 2021 in Senate: with the local knowledge that I was talking about and partner with local technicians who will generate new knowledge. Madam Temporary Speaker, there is a feeling and sometimes a very wrong one in this country that sometimes when something stays for too long, we somehow need to fix it. It is the kind of thinking that led people to go to a very good institution that we used to have here called the Kenya Polytechnic. It was an institution that used to provide very skilled technicians for the various institutions in this country. Companies like the East African Breweries Ltd. ... view

• 14 Jul 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank you for giving me this chance. I join my colleagues in agreeing and congratulating our colleague, Sen. Falhada, who is slowly by slowly, carving out a niche for herself as a digital Senator. Last time she came with a statement on the effects of Tik Tok in our society. Today, she has moved a little bit further and brought to the attention of the House, the effects of the various social media platforms in our society and what we need to do as a society. While congratulating her, I wish to urge her to further ... view
• 14 Jul 2021 in Senate: sometimes. Given the work that I do elsewhere in this Parliament, sometimes I find myself in difficult situations of balancing between being a Senator and their representative elsewhere. However, we must still say the truth about what they do to some of our Bill. In fact, Sen. Wetangula, you may want to know that when we passed that Bill, because I was a member of the Committee on Information, Communication and Technology last term, they dumped it to gather dust. It was never processed until when we came back in 2017. They republished it afresh and purported to be a ... view
• 14 Jul 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I did not want to add that because he is my friend, I know that he is currently very broke yet he is making millions for other people elsewhere. view
• 14 Jul 2021 in Senate: That is why we are talking about bottom-up economy because we need to teach hustlers like him how to make money. The point is that we set up the cyber security unit in that Bill. However, given the challenges of this Republic, knowing that our economy is not doing so well, we need to think of how we can generate revenue through imposition of taxes on many of these platforms that get contents from Kenyans free of charge. For instance, we can generate revenue from the videos that young people are doing on Tik Tok, twitter and posts that they ... view
• 14 Jul 2021 in Senate: the cyber security unit which will crack down on all these vices that have been listed by our colleague Senator. Mr. Speaker, Sir, while supporting her statement, I urge her to do further research and come up with good proposals of amendments to the Cyber Security Bill that was passed in this House so that we are able to stem and put a stop to all these vices that she has listed. This is something that will bother anyone, parent or leader who is concerned about the welfare of our society. It is a menace that if we do not ... view
• 14 Jul 2021 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.48 (1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights on the closure of Kericho Law Courts. In the Statement, the Committee should- (i) Explain the circumstances which led to the closure of Kericho Law Courts on the 5th March, 2021 thus denying the residents of Kericho County and the public in general the much needed court services; (ii) Outline the interim measures if any the Judiciary is taking to ensure the criminal matters and other urgent matters are handled so as to minimize ... view
• 14 Jul 2021 in Senate: (iii)Provide an update on the construction of Kericho Law Courts and the plans, if any, that the Judiciary is putting in place to increase the number of law courts in Kericho County; and (iv) State when the Kericho Law Courts will be reopened. Thank you. view
