• 2 Mar 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I stand to support--- view
• 2 Mar 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I stand to support the Senator for Nakuru City County, Sen. Tabitha Keroche. As you are aware, this country has people who have not been settled for many years. There are people who have remained Internally Displaced Persons(IDPS) in their own country since Independence. From time immemorial, before Independence, we have had many people displaced by the white settlers. Today, they are landless and IDPs in their own country. view
• 2 Mar 2023 in Senate: We have conflicts in the country resulting to people running away from their homes. They do not have places to settle and they form part of the informal settlers. It is a high time that this country settles its own citizens. Those people should live decent lives; their children should go to school. The IDPs would also like to enjoy farming and get all privileges that other Kenyans have. I support the Statement by Sen. Tabitha Keroche. view
• 2 Mar 2023 in Senate: Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir. As you are aware in this country, the health situation and conditions of the people of Kenya, it is a healthy nation, but most of our health practitioners are not well taken care of. view
• 2 Mar 2023 in Senate: We see our doctors in the streets every day. The registered clinical officers are not employed anywhere. The nurses are hustling. The other day we saw in the papers that doctors cannot go out of the country to look for jobs. If we are not able to employ them then they should be allowed to look for jobs outside. view
• 2 Mar 2023 in Senate: Secondly, as Hon. Wakili Sigei said, nowadays we do not seem to have clinical officers. We have doctor and nurses. I know Kenyatta University has started a degree on surgery and clinical studies. It is high time that we focused on the health sector of our country. view
• 2 Mar 2023 in Senate: If you look all over the country, most of the hospitals, dispensaries and health centres do not have enough doctors. The medical officers are not there. It is the clinical officers who are doing their job. Their welfare is not well taken care of. Generally, since the health sector was devolved, it appears to be just a way of getting employment. The registered clinical officers should be considered and should be part of the structures. view
• 2 Mar 2023 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to support. view
• 1 Mar 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I stand to support the Motion. We find ourselves in a very unfortunate situation today. Everybody knows that this country is a middle level economy. Unfortunately, we cannot pay for our own goods and services in the country just because of indiscipline borrowing and misuse of resources available to the country. As you look at a paper today, the debt stands at Kshs10 trillion and what capacity is capped is always Kshs6oo billion, which is available for use for this country. The Kshs600 billion cannot fund our education sector. So, we will need to borrow. ... view
• 1 Mar 2023 in Senate: Our recurrent expenditure is more than 60 per cent of our GDP. A country like Kenya should not be worried of where to get the money from. This country is rich and has resources to feed her citizenry and export food. We are getting food from Tanzania and Uganda. This country has become a consumer country. Instead of producing food and become self-sufficient and export; we are importing. This is an unfortunate situation. The money borrowed is used for recurrent expenditure; paying for salaries and petty things. This is total disrespect to any understanding of financial disciplines. The leadership of ... view
