Mr. Speaker, Sir, my gadget is not working. I had hoped to capture your eye or attention, so that I can be allowed to make a comment. Can I, Mr. Speaker, Sir?

14 Feb 2023 in Senate:
Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. May I join you and the two colleagues who have spoken before me, in welcoming the Delegation from Uganda. Allow me to request them to pass our greetings to our colleagues in the Parliament of Uganda and especially the colleagues in Parliament. Ordinarily, they should have been colleagues in this House, but the colonial government curved out 13 of our constituencies, which would have been in Kenya into Uganda. I greet them. Secondly, I also join you in welcoming colleagues back to the House. As we do so, I laud Members for the First Session. ...

Mr. Speaker Sir, I rise to support this Motion. As others have said, it is an important one. Ordinarily, once this it is moved by the Majority and gets the backing of the leadership of the Minority, it quickly becomes a point of convergence and calls upon us to remain brief so that we can discharge the business. However, because of what has transpired this afternoon, I wish to make a few comments. The first one is that, yes, on our side the Majority, we have not changed the names. We had reasons to do so.

I made it a point to do spot checks all the time in my county. When I talk to the teachers about CBC, they tell me they do not know it. When I talk to the parents, they tell me they cannot afford. When I talk to the students and the pupils, especially the pupils, they say they do not know if they were number one, two, seven or last. I then ask them, what the problem is. One of them told me: “I used to beat Maria, but now I do not know whether Maria did better than me ...

14 Feb 2023 in Senate:
worked with you for many years. Do not allow this Senate to be defined by the immaturity and excitement of just a few potatoes. I saw you pained while speaking to the issue of menstruation that was being canvassed on the Floor of the House. It should never happen again. We know that our girls are suffering because of the challenges of poverty due to menstruation. At the same time, we also have Kenyans who are suffering because they do not have toilets. Mr. Speaker, Sir, are you going to expect a male Senator to come here having defecated on ...

If the intention is to picket, there is room for picketing. If she had asked me, I would have helped her how to picket on the same thing. I got her in the corridors. I am a doctor of medicine and so, I pulled her to Sen. Dullos’ office and asked her to please change. She told me, ‘No, I am going to show them.’

Mr. Speaker, Sir, if she wanted to picket, she would have bought a well-designed ribbon. I would have worn one ribbon for her. I am sure several of us would have worn a ribbon too, to send a message to our children that we care. The ribbon would have been written ‘support the poor children who have challenges during menstruation.’
