Thank you, Mr. Speaker Sir. As much as we appreciate that Miraa is a cash crop for our brothers in Meru and Embu counties, it is also a social problem within the consuming communities like Coast, Wajir and Northern Kenya. Most students have dropped out of school because of consuming Muguka. It has been proven that Muguka is actually a drug. It can be proven beyond reasonable doubt, that it is a drug. It has destroyed the social and public---

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. A lot of research has already been done on Miraa. The fact is that if consumed, miraa is a stimulant that affects its consumers. I request for time to bring the research paper. I know Miraa has destroyed my society. I am a living testimony. I can attest that one time I consumed Miraa and the effect it had on me. As much as I appreciate that it is one of the cash crops that brings a lot of money from exporting, it is destroying especially the consumers. Therefore, Mr. Speaker, Sir, I ask for ...

25 Oct 2022 in Senate:
Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I also speak to the Statement from the Senator of Kitui County. It is a very important and crucial Statement that touches so many lives in this country. Concerning the drought issue, if nothing is done very soon, we are worried that we might lose many lives. We have already lost animals, but many people may die out of that drought due to famine. Former councilors have played a big role and sacrificed their lives for this country and were part of its second liberation. Unfortunately, they have been neglected by the successive governments. ...

18 Oct 2022 in Senate:
Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. As much as we appreciate the Statement by the hon. Senator from Kitui, I would like to inform the House of the terrible drought and famine. Those camels belong to Kenyans. Therefore, we would appreciate if they are taken care of by our brothers and sisters in Kitui.

This is a resource for all Kenyans. If we discover oil in Wajir County, we will not discriminate whether one comes from Kitui or Wajir. Equally, those animals have the right to graze in those places. With due consideration, I request the Senator of Kitui, Sen. Wambua, to be lenient and consider the situation. Today, those animals are faced with death, the owners stressed with famine and they need to keep the animals alive. Therefore, we will appreciate the people of Kitui County and Ukambani at large.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for the opportunity. The President of the Republic of Kenya talked about 52 issues within a very short time. He talked eloquently and with a lot of vigour, which made the Speech to be seen as very short.
