• 17 Nov 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I was standing because you were not on your feet. Otherwise, I would have sat down immediately. I appreciate what you are saying. However, I was speaking to the letter and spirit of the Constitution, 2010. It was meant for a short period of only 20 years and to right a wrong against Kenyans, who live in those areas that I have tabulated. There has been further wisdom and this has been expanded to include areas that are marginalised. It is going to call upon this House to reflect on this matter very seriously. ... view

• 17 Nov 2022 in Senate: we needed it in the Constitution so that that policy could be corrected and a sunset close was put. I can comfortably tell you that there are places in Mandera County today, that are richer than some places in Kakamega County. However, because the people of Kakamega County were not treated badly through bad policy – like the people of Mandera at that time – we would not mind if it is righted for a short period of 20 years. For your information, due to this haggling, already 12 years of the 20 are over. We are remaining with a ... view

• 16 Nov 2022 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I congratulate Hon. Osotsi, the Senator for Vihiga County, for this important Statement. For a long time, agriculture was the main forex exchange earner for this country. Considering not too much thought has been put into it, this iconic status now been lost to unpredictable products like inflow of funds from Kenyans living in the diaspora. We need to take it more aggressively, so that over and above reviving tourism, we should also cause tourists to come to Kenya for other reasons other than the Big Five of our wildlife and our sandy beaches at the coast. ... view

• 15 Nov 2022 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also wish to strongly add my voice, not only in sending my condolences to the family and friends of the departed, Mr. Wilson Kiprugut Arap Chuma, but also join colleagues in creating national consensus around this problem. Mr. Speaker, Sir, we must accept that today, sports is a major employment industry. The only way to do it, is to appreciate that it takes awareness for people to take up and eventually discover their talent. We have had great reason for us to do that through sportsmen and women of yesteryears. Mr. Speaker, Sir, you may not ... view
• 15 Nov 2022 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, most of the athletes are usually not highly educated, like the great son of the Mijikenda, who is currently sitting on the Speaker’s Chair. They are usually people with little or no education. Therefore, the poor man from Ikolomani will not understand, if you tell him not to eat certain foods, while all his life he has been eating ugali and mrenda, because he knows that is the food you eat when hungry. The people who take advantage of these children and traffic drugs must be punished, because it requires a lot of knowledge to have access ... view

• 15 Nov 2022 in Senate: They have developed a culture in the process. Brazilians are the richest footballers in the world. They produce the best talent because of the support that they get back home. I usually see young Kalenjin boys along the Kapsabet to Kericho Road, while on my way back to Nairobi. If we backed them, we can bag all the medals. May the people from Kalenjin Community be congratulated but they should know that we are also coming up. Today, we have Ferdinand Omanyala, the latest 100 metres sensation. For your information, he is--- view
