Madam Temporary Speaker, I thank you for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Motion by the Senate Majority Whip. The people who have been appointed to lead this investigation are worthy people. I have a lot of trust in them. I thank Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale for recognizing this as occultist. It is not a religious body or a church according to the Bible and what the false prophet has done to the innocent people of Kenya. Even in the Bible, Jesus did not want people to know when one is fasting. You cannot go around ordering people to ...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. My question to the CS is about Portland. Portland land was under lease, which is over. I know that this matter is in court. However, they took a Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB) loan and the bank is selling the land to the community. We know once the lease is over, the land should be returned back to the community through the county. Why is KCB selling the land to the community yet land loans are insured? The insurance should take care of the loan and not the community to compensate KCB. What are you doing ...

Asante, Bw. Naibu Spika, kwa kunipa fursa hii kuchangia taarifa ya Sen. Onyonka kutoka Kisii. Ninaunga mkono taarifa hii. Jambo la pesa ambazo hazijalipwa wale contractors na suppliers waliopeleka vitu na kufanya kazi katika kaunti, ni sugu sana kwa kila kaunti. Kama kaunti ya Machakos, tuko na hizi pending bills za kutoka 2014 hadi wa leo. Na bado hazijalipwa. Bw. Naibu Spika, ningeomba wale ambao wataangalia jambo hili waangalie kaunti zote na hata kuundwe jopo la kuchunguza ni watu wangapi hawajalipwa pesa zao katika kila kaunti. Mambo haya ya watu wa bodaboda ambayo yameletwa na Seneta mwenzetu ni muhimu sana ...

Bw. Spika, ninashukuru kwa nafasi hii ili nichangie suala ambalo Sen. Cherarkey amelileta hapa Bungeni. Madaktari wanafanya kazi ngumu sana. Usiku sisi tukiwa usingizini, wao wanahudumia wagonjwa hospitalini. Ni muhimu kuwa maslahi yao yangaliwe kwa kina. Kwa hivyo, Wizara ya Afya haistahili kupinga hizi pesa ambazo madaktari wanastahili kupatiwa baada ya uamuzi wa Bunge. Ni lazima watoe hizo pesa ili ziende mashinani kuhudumia madaktari wetu. Hakuna watu ambao hufanya kazi ngumu kama madaktari. Hata mtu akiwa katika hali mahututi, daktari atamhudumia mpaka atoke hospitalini akiwa mzima na katika hali ya kujisaidia. Hatutaki madaktari wetu wagome kwa sababu ndio wapate pesa ...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity to support the Statement from Sen. Joe Nyutu, the Senator for Murang’a County. This issue should be covered for the whole country. I do not think there is any county that has enough electricity. The Kenya Power Limited draws most of its power from Masinga Dam, Machakos Count. However, the homes surrounding Masinga Dam have no electricity. Mr. Speaker, Sir, this should not only be done in Murang’a, but across the country. I support. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir.

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I beg to move the Motion in a changed version. I shall change the figures 213 to 223 and 12 to 44. THAT, AWARE THAT, disaster is defined as an overwhelming event and circumstance that tests the adaptation of responses of a community or individuals beyond their capability and leads momentarily to massive disruption of function for a community or individual that often exceeds their capacity to cope using existing resources; FURTHER AWARE THAT, such was the case with the 1998 US Embassy Bomb disaster in Nairobi in which many of the Kenyan casualties ...
