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.

  • 4 Aug 2020 in Senate: Let me finish my bit. I will keep it brief. From what we are saying, the fact that we need to caucus is very key. Probably, we would not have been in this situation if we had caucused more at different levels. As we adjourn, it is important for us to do so. The second thing that I want to speak about is the confusion about the formulas that are out there; the first basis formula, the second basis formula, moving to the third from the CRA and the other one from the Standing Committee on Finance and Budget. In ... view
  • 4 Aug 2020 in Senate: Bi Naibu Spika, asante kwa fursa hii ili nizungumzie juu ya Ombi kutoka kwa watu wa Jomvu, Mombasa. Nakushukuru Sen. Faki kwa kuleta Ombi hili hapa Seneti. Kwa kweli vile alivyosema na vile ambavyo tumeona, haya maombi ni juu ya dhulma ya kihistoria. Hawa ni watu ambao walikuwa na ardhi yao na walikuwa wakifanya shughuli zao na mambo yao ya kila siku. Lakini, inaonekana kwamba hapa kati kati mambo yaligeuka. Inaonekana kwamba sasa hawawezi kuimiliki hiyo ardhi vizuri na wametupwa nje. Ninafikiria kwamba kwa sababu wameleta Ombi hili hapa Seneti, Kamati husika ina kazi ya kuangalia jambo gani haswa lilifanyika. ... view

  • 4 Aug 2020 in Senate: Kwa hivyo, Ombi hili ni muhimu. Namshukuru Sen. Faki ambaye ameleta Ombi hili kwa niaba ya watu ambao wanaishi Jomvu ambao wamepatikana na janga hili. Nafikiria katika Seneti, tutaweza kuliangali na kulikamilisha vilivyo na kuhakikisha kwamba wamepata haki yao. view
  • 4 Aug 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. I wish to support this Motion. I think that we have all listened to the discussions in the afternoon and it is very clear that the momentum dictates that we continue with this process. We should try as much as possible to gain the much needed consensus to talk together and deliver for Kenyans who are waiting very anxiously. view

  • 4 Aug 2020 in Senate: We are looking at a formula that is going to guide the revenue allocation in counties for the next five years. Therefore, it is very critical and important that all counties are brought aboard this discussion, and that the idea of equity is well imputed, so that every county can understand what is going on. Secondly, as I said earlier, it is very important at this point that the various formulas that are coming in are explained and understood. We have also had an idea of involving the Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA) in looking at the parameters, because once ... view
  • 4 Aug 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to move that the Community Health Services Bill (Senate Bills No.5 of 2020) be now read a Second Time. I want to very quickly talk about community workers; what they do and why they are so important, especially during this time of COVID-19 pandemic. We did not know that it was going to erupt. Madam Temporary Speaker, with your indulgence, allow me to remove my mask since there is social distance so that I can speak without it and then put it back when I am done. We have a group of people called community ... view

  • 4 Aug 2020 in Senate: This is a group of workers who are so important in the specific categories. There are many people in the community who are not able to go to a dispensary or hospital. They need the sort of intervention that community health workers give. Madam Temporary Speaker, I have brought this Bill to the Floor of the House of Senate to show that many counties have already begun this process. We, as Senate, have come up with this legislation so that these particular counties entrench on and vary it to their specific issues within their counties. The community health workers already ... view
