• 30 Nov 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. This Motion has come at the right time. It is the third time that this issue of drought and lack of food has been brought before the Senate. Access to food is a fundamental right for every person. It is fundamental for every Kenyan to access food. Therefore, nobody should be food insecure. As rightly said by my colleague Mhe.

As you are aware, this country has a lot of problems, especially in terms of land disputes. The other day someone’s House was demolished in Westlands, Nairobi County.

Mostly, poor people are affected since they are not protected. view
• 16 Nov 2022 in Senate: It is high time this House revisited the issue and see what is happening now in Kilifi County and protect the poor people whose land has been taken. Where people’s houses are being demolished, they need our protection. I support the Statement. view
