Dr. Agnes Zani

From her childhood days, she recalls that any kind of injustice to anyone made her hair stand on end. At the university, Agnes occasionally acted as the chairperson of her department and started the Ford Foundation International Fellowships Alumni Programme, which she has been chairing since. When Kwale residents threatened to boycott the 2013 elections during the infamous “Pwani si Kenya” unrest, she took it upon herself to offer free civic education to her community. Education tops the former lecturer of University of Nairobi main agenda during her term of service.

  • 6 Jul 2021 in Senate: diarrhea and cholera, giving the specific provisions of what needs to be done. In the case of COVID-19, also giving the suggestions, the masks and social distancing. One of the things we tend to rely on a lot are messages that are given from the media. If you look at communities, how many members are able to get those messages from the television and radio? We have a component of people whom if they are enhanced further within the counties, then they will stay well. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it was Sen. Farhiya who said they are the first responders ... view

  • 6 Jul 2021 in Senate: need health expenses to go down because we can have a model that can bring this together. I thank Sen. Omogeni for his contribution as well as the role that he and other Members of his team have played in ensuring that the provisions of Article 110 (3) are put into the provisions for the operationalization of legislative agenda both at the Senate and in the National Assembly. It is as a result of this that we are able to come back with these Bills and expedite these goals, so that we can move them to the next level. We ... view
  • 2 Jun 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. Allow me to join you in welcoming the officers from Lamu County Assembly to the Senate. We are in the second phase of devolution having started this journey in 2013 and there have been many changes both in the county level and in the Senate. So, there is a lot to take in even as we move with the dynamics of ensuring that devolution is well entrenched within counties. We have had several challenges over time and we have tried to surmount them by bringing various legislation to help ensure counties are well run. We ... view

  • 2 Jun 2021 in Senate: own source revenue because it is a big issue in counties. It is very difficult to attain the development we want without revenue. Madam Deputy Speaker, as you join us this afternoon, probably, we will be discussing and debating the County Allocation of Revenue Bill. It is a critical Bill because this is the horizontal allocation for revenue to counties. The Senate has stood with counties to ensure revenue is allocated to counties and that the revenue is increased too. Indeed, it has been increased this time to the tune of Kshs53 billion. As the Senate, we are working hard ... view
  • 2 Jun 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker, I stand to support the Wildlife Conservation and Management (Amendment Bill) Senate Bills No.30 of 2020. Let me start by congratulating Sen. Mwaruma for bringing this amendment. He has been extremely passionate about matters of conservation, wildlife issues and management which are critical not only in his county but across the board. This is not just prevalent in Taita Taveta, we have had the same issues arising also in Kajiado. We have had very many Members coming forth with issues about their cattle being affected and attacked by lions. Sometimes people fight back and the ... view
  • 2 Jun 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker did not see. Sometimes this Chamber tends to be a little bit hot. This area where I sit is quite cold. However, when you stand up to contribute, the passion of the issues makes it mandatory for you to speak from your heart because these issues not only affect Kwale, but also other counties like Kajiado and Samburu. Indeed, we have had so many Petitions and Statements regarding this issue. I remember sometime back when we had the Cabinet Secretary, Hon. Balala, in the Standing Committee on Tourism, Trade and Industrialisation, this issue came up. I remember ... view
