• 13 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I just want to ride on that Statement that as the Chairman looks at the issues raised, we also need to understand why the police are dealing with young people in that sort of manner.

• 12 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Bill. It comes at a time when we are just about to have the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) which deals with trade. It comes at a time when the Chamber of Commerce is about to do their elections which deals with issues of small enterprises and trade. Therefore, I thank the Senator for Kiambu for coming up with this amendment, which is critical because, first; this is a key sector that has employed thousands of Kenyans and secondly, it is a sector that has contributed so much ... view
• 6 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I agree with the Vice Chair that the statement provided is unfortunate. They do not dispute or agree with the penalty of Kshs200,000. We need to get to the bottom of this matter because it is serious. It is unfortunate how the Ag. County Secretary has answered this question. What is it, Sen. (Dr.) Machage? view

• 6 Jul 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I humbly request that the Statement be delivered by next week. The more time we take, the more the boda boda operators in Nairobi will suffer.

• 6 Jul 2016 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I also rise to support this Motion for setting up this Committee. I appreciate the fact that there a quite number of women who will ensure the business of the House will run smoothly. I hope they will learn a lot from your experience. You have been instrumental in the running of this House. The most important thing to note here is that this Committee has a substantive number of people who will deliver and make sure Senate asserts its position always. view
• 6 Jul 2016 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I support this amendment Bill. In the last three years when Sen. Kagwe was the Chairperson of Education Committee, they made sure that the Early Childhood Education Centres (ECEC) were started in many parts of the country. I want to thank the current Cabinet Secretary (CS), Ministry of Education, for the good work he is doing. We have many challenges facing our children. I support the idea of having county education boards because they will facilitate the full realisation of all children to access quality basic education. They will also ensure all institutions of basic ... view

• 5 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to add that even when we do allocations to counties, we still have conflict because of the same census. Therefore, it is important for the courts to conclude these cases so that we know the way forward regarding the matter that has been pending since 2009. I think we need to close the chapter on census. view
• 5 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I also rise to condemn the killings. Today, this country is sad that when young people want to stop mafias or cartels in land and businesses of tendering, they are killed. We must stand and condemn that completely.
