• 5 Oct 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I strongly support this Motion. There is no greater urgency to debunk the lie that our towns are not ripe for city status than to give you the example of the Republic of Estonia. Estonia has a population of 1.3 million people only. It has the following cities; Tallinn with a population 450,000 people, Tartu, population of 97,000, Parnu with a population of 40,000 and Sillamäe with a population of 12,000 people. This lie of insisting that our towns should acquire city status only if they have reached a population of over 250,000 people ... view

It is because of the population factor that I started talking about the lack of children by Sen. Oketch Gicheru. When you started laughing at him, I cautioned you that, after all, you are not too different because yours are merely toothless. I would ... view
• 5 Oct 2023 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, these athletic villages, development of sports, it is the things that we have that those people do not have that will cause them to come where we are and, therefore, give us money for tourism.

We need to convert our towns into cities and move our people from the rural areas to come ... view
