Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for this privilege to welcome our children to the Senate. Children, this is the Senate. I know back in school you have been told what Parliament is. I, therefore, use this opportunity to welcome and remind you of the great county you come from. This county is not only represented in this Senate by the great Sen. Thang’wa, but it also has a history of producing some of the best leaders in this country. The first President of Kenya, President Jomo Kenyatta, was from Kiambu County. The fourth President of Kenya, President Uhuru Kenyatta, ...

15 Feb 2024 in Senate:
Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. For purposes of record, debate and being understood very well, I am contributing to this Bill on two limbs. First, I am defending the Lake Victoria North Water Board and how it affects Kakamega County. Secondly, I urge colleagues to realize that there is no law in this country for the opposition or the party in Government. Having said those two things, I have two confessions to make. First, when we were in Turkana County legislating on the health laws we all remember how protracted debate was. I clearly told plenary that I was ...

The second confession I want to make is that we have come a very long way with Sen. Omogeni. We have agreed on everything. The first time I came in contact with him was over 20 years ago when he was the Chairman of the Law Society of Kenya (LSK). At that time, Sen.

The only time we disagreed with Sen. Omogeni was yesterday when he shocked me by saying ...

supply of bulk water in Machakos is unique. Supply of bulk water to arid and semi-arid areas is unique compared to places like Kericho, Meru, Kakamega and Kisii counties where there is plenty of rain. Supply of bulk water to us is different from the arid areas. You do not talk about water pans in Kakamega, Kisii, and Meru counties. Nonetheless, this is their principal concern. This is all the more reason why management should be left to counties because they are the custodians.
