• 21 Mar 2023 in Senate: I know there is a Bill coming in the next few days to do with boundary issues. I hope the teething problems on boundaries, cities, urban centres and all will be sorted. Being the Chair of the Standing Committee on Devolution and Intergovernmental Relations, we have taken note. This will be taken seriously and we will bring a report to this House. Therefore, we will follow up on the issues raised. There are many municipalities that have been created by the governors. The governors are managing them and many resources are being collected, but nothing is given to the municipalities. ... view
• 16 Mar 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I also join my colleagues to support this Motion and congratulate the appointees to the Council. As you are aware, climate change has now become a big disaster, especially in Africa. The Britons, the people who have industrialised America, Europe, and all those places where there is a much industrialization have caused a lot of havoc. We must impress on these people that they must pay for the pollution that we are now having. The people who are suffering in Africa must be compensated for the consequences of the industrialized countries. This country called ... view

• 16 Mar 2023 in Senate: It is high time that the Government had a plan and programme of restocking animals because that land can only be used for livestock keeping.

Today, Saudi Arabia and Egypt are producing food in surplus. Kenya has better land and we have all the resources available. However, our priorities are upside down. We cannot rely on the Rift-Valley and the green parts of the country only to produce ... view

• 16 Mar 2023 in Senate: This unnecessary settlement is causing us a lot of problems. Everybody is settling wherever they want. That should not be the case. We must have collective places where people can settle and others where we can farm and produce food. With those few remarks, I beg to support. view
• 9 Mar 2023 in Senate: Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity. I support the Petition by the Senate Majority Leader. I believe much has been said on the issue of the colonialists. The colonialists who colonised this country have caused a lot of suffering. Many Kenyans have been killed because of defending their own properties and land. Many lands have been taken and they have taken the best product of land. Kenya’s population has increased and most Kenyans are still squatters in their own country. They also created imaginary boundaries where communities are fighting every day over boundaries that do not ... view

• 9 Mar 2023 in Senate: Kenyans have not healed even after the wazungus left. We got black men who took over the land. Today, the big chunks of land are underutilised. It is high time that all idle land was taxed and reclaimed. With those few remarks, I thank you. I beg to support. view
